I have had no experience with those sleepsacks. has slept in the

carters fleece sleepsacks for the first 6 months. Since it outgrew

them-well the dbb outgrew them, we have been using the HALO sleepsack.

He has been in the 6 to 12 month one for 6months and its just now

starting to get tight around his dbb. These sacks wash well and hold

up nicely-they have fleece and cotton ones. The cotton ones stretch

more than the fleece but we have used both.

Hope this helps!

Thanks, Kathleen! It does help. Do the sacks zip up and down? Did you notice

with the BeddieBye it zips around? I'm not sure if that would make it easier

at all, but it certainly caught my eye! I assume 's can be found in most

department stores, but where would you find the HALO sleepsack? Thanks for you

help.

Joy,

We also used the HALO sleepsacks for our son, Owen. Of course, to

swaddle him would be best but the cast & subsequent brace made that

impossible. It was a good routine for us. As soon as the sleepsack

came out, he knew it was bed time. Later, when he outgrew the

sleepsack, putting on his shoes was his cue that it was bedtime.

We were able to purchase ours at Babies'R'Us (available in stores or

online at www.babiesrus.com - affiliated w/ Amazon).

I liked the sleepsacks so much that we have given one at every baby

shower we've attended since .

Good Luck,

Patti

Joy-

The HALO sleepsacks can be purchased at Babiesrus(online too). They

are also sold at walmart/meijer stores as well. The HALO sacks zip

from top to bottom(vs the norm) which makes it easy for diaper

changes!!! These are just sacks so you do have wear a onesie under

them-I have found that gerber and carters both make long sleeve

onesies. does not sleep in anything else-even naptimes he has

to have his long sleeve onesie and sleepsack on! The carter's

sleepersacks are 1 piece with long sleeves-way soft(wish they made

them for adults) and they held the casts as well-they just aren't

very wide(also come in one size only 0-9 months). I have seen the

carters sacks in stores now since it is getting close to fall.

Let me know if you need help finding them! I love online shopping.
