All of my babies have been born during the Winter or Early Spring, which means the nights have been super chilly and definitely unwelcoming for a precious new arrival. I’ve often found that my little ones have had cold arms and hands and I’m convinced that is why they prefer to sleep underneath my duvet with me… which we all know they shouldn’t do because of the risk of overheating! It’s a real catch twenty two isn’t it? Don’t sleep because the baby won’t sleep or don’t sleep because you are worried about the risk of overheating.
Well, prepare to love me, because I have discovered a sleep-saving solution (or at least I hope it saves me sleep… please?!). These wonderful Snuggle Sleeves are an absolute must for parents using sleeping bags. These super soft, cosy sleeves are easily attached to any sleeping bag and keep your baby’s arms and hands snuggly and warm during the night. They even double up as a scratch mitt too, avoiding those awful little scratches that little ones often give themselves in the night (Edith and Toby were always scratching themselves – no matter how often I cut their nails!).
The sleeves are the brain child of the brilliant Laura Meredith, who has made sure that these are 100% baby and mama friendly, basing her product completely on her own experience as a mother, she knows what it is like to be woken up in the night for something that is avoidable – isn’t it a billion times more frustrating when sleep is so precious for both of you? They can be washed, are super hard wearing and have been tested back and forth (in the UK to ensure quality is just as Laura – and any other mama – would expect) to make sure they are 100% safe for your little one to use.
Re-claim sleep and the duvet by keeping your little one cosy and content!

P.s – This would be an ideal baby shower or new baby gift for first time parents, after all, its one of the things you simply won’t think about until you already have children. Why not save some friends the annoyance of those avoidable wake ups by giving them something useful, instead of the usual. Laura has kindly set up a 20% discount code for Toby & Roo readers, so please take advantage of it – TOBYROO20. Enjoy!
