Swaddling is a traditional practice that involves wrapping a baby snugly in a blanket or cloth. This technique has numerous benefits for both the baby and the parents.
It helps to soothe and calm newborns by recreating the feeling of being in the womb. It provides a sense of security and comfort, helping babies sleep better and cry less.
Swaddling helps to prevent the startle reflex, which can often disturb a baby's sleep.
It also promotes better sleep patterns and can reduce the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS).
Swaddling can also assist in regulating a baby's body temperature, ensuring they stay warm and cozy.
