The
Product is fine we have used it for a couple weeks and no real change accept it takes longer to change the baby
Amber T.
My newborn sleeps GREAT in this swaddle! I only ordered one to test it out and need to buy a couple more!
Kendra H.
This was amazing! The first night I placed my son in it he slept for 6 hrs straight!!! And has been doing so every since it came in the mail!!!! This is a must have for any newborn!!!
Kelly H.
Our 2 month old went from sleeping 2-3 hours at a time to 5-6 hours! Worth every penny!
Alexandra B.
I amped this swaddle up to be more than it was. Saw an ad for it on Facebook and thought it would be great and would help my daughter stay asleep based on the reviews I read. After 2 weeks of wearing the swaddle to sleep in her bassinet, I have not seen any improvement in my 5 week old. Only nice thing about the swaddle is how soft the fabric is. Somewhat disappointed.
Renee D.
We bought the Zen swaddle for our 5 week old boy. He would not nap for more than 15 minutes in his bassinet. Once we put him in the swaddle, he slept for 2 hours!! Total life saver!
Heather M.
My baby girl went from sleeping 4-5 hours a night to sleeping 8-10! She no longer grunts during the night and is in a deep sleep
Carly F.
My 3 week old went from waking every 3-4 hours to every hour to nurse. I purchased the swaddle and the very first night he wore it, he slept 3 hours! Every night since he wakes every 2.5-4 hours. I’m one happy mama.
Andrea M.
Helped my baby go from 3 hour sleep stretches to 6 hour stretches!
Brett T.
The swaddle is a game changer. My newborn was waking up every hour to 2 hours at night. She now sleeps for 4-5 hours at a time at night at 2 weeks old. It's fantastic!
Sarah C.
My son seems to know it’s nap time when he’s swaddled. But as for longer stretches of sleeping, didn’t make a difference at all.
Shelley D.
It’s ok. Didn’t make a difference in sleep for my 8 week old. Not sure it’s worth the money. It is a nice size compared to my old swaddles, though.
april r.
It worked great night one but since then hasn't helped much. I think my child just doesnt want to be swaddled and I should have got a different type of zen.
Jessi H.
FIRST NIGHT! My twins both wore there’s!! Literally after 5 min they were both sound asleep!! And slept through the night!!! I recommend these over any swaddle I’ve used!!! ♥️
Hannah W.
The nested bean swaddle is the only swaddle we use now. Although I will say, I don't think the swaddle helps our little one (currently 9 weeks old, we've been using the swaddles since he was 5 weeks) sleep longer, I do think it helps him fall asleep faster after he wakes to feed. I also like that it has multiple fits so he can continue to wear it as he grows. Love the material too!
Joella L.
This swaddle didn't make any difference for my baby's sleep. The weight was not enough for my 8.5 pound baby; she responded to my hand on her, but not to the weight in the swaddle, which is very minimal. It is a nice blanket, just not what I would consider particularly "weighted."
Alayna K.
My son absolutely loves the Zen Nested Bean swaddle! He is 1 month old and once he is in the swaddle, he instantly calms down and falls asleep. This is best thing I could have gotten for him and it helps me as a new mom get more sleep as well.
Lindsay R.
Don’t believe when others say their child slept for hours after use of this swaddle. I’ve been using for days and not seeing much of a difference.
Monica M.
This has been a game changer. The first time we put it on him he slept 4 hours! He’s one month old and it’s been really helpful getting him on a better sleep schedule. When he’s fussing and tired but fighting his sleep or only wants to be held, we put it on and he calms down within seconds. Totally recommend this and will be buying another one!
Krista S.
I do believe this swaddle has made our little one sleep longer in the evening, she has gone from 6 hours to almost 8 full hours. She is only 10 weeks so I find this amazing! I do believe this swaddle is made well and I am very happy with this purchase. Would recommend and buy again.
Janet K.
Both my daughters have had great experiences with this product and loved the gift they got from Grandma, newborn went from waking up every hour to sleeping all night.
Jordan J.
Helps him fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer !
Olivia L.
AMAZING. Our son is 6 weeks old and wasn't sleeping at night. We received our swaddle yesterday and used it for the first time last night. He fell asleep within minutes and slept for 4 hours. We just purchased a second one today. Our only regret is that we didn't order them sooner.
Emmalee M.
I was 100% skeptical, but I figured a swaddle would be nice for him to sleep in anyway. I wanted one with Velcro because he is Houdini and escapes every swaddle we put him in. First night in this swaddle, slept all night. And I wasn't complaining before he woke up at 2 and at 5 and that was fine, but now I wake up before he does. It's such a blessing.
Michelle F.
It is a GREAT swaddle. She stays in it well, unlike other swaddles. However, I don't think the weight is all that great. I still have to put my hand on her to comfort her at night. I did start swaddling her with one arm out and she sleeps better than she did.
Jessica B.
I have been through soooo many swaddles and this one finally worked for us! Baby girl is 4 months old and now sleeping 8-9 hours! Love love!
Caydie S.
Bought this as a shower gift. My granddaughter had one when she was an infant so I knew through experience that it works!
Elana B.
I bought this before purchasing the Zen One and while she loved the weight, she didn’t love her hands in all the time. I also don’t see how this would fit her at 6 months as it seems to be a little small at 2.5 months.
Ellen M.
Our son *hated* being swaddled so much so we were desperate to find a gentle alternative while still allowing him to get maximum sleep. Problem solved with the Zen swaddle. No lie, he actually enjoys being put in the crib in his nested bean zen swaddle because he feels so "nested" and safe - he's only 7 weeks old! We've been using it for 2 - 3 weeks now and only wish we discovered this swaddle earlier. We do swaddle with one arm out, which unlike other swaddles is super easy and comfortable for the baby.
I highly recommend this swaddle - game changer.
Sarah D.
I can’t say enough about this product! My son went from waking twice a night to sleeping from 8p-5a by his third night! He’s now falling asleep directly after wrapping without any cuddles from momma! He’s a happier baby when he wakes in the morning! It has been such a relief to our family!
Megan T.
My son was waking every 2-3 hours until I purchased the Zen Swaddle! Now he sleeps 7-8 hours every night!!! (He is currently 6 weeks old.) I was skeptical but now I'm a believer! I recommend the ZEN swaddle to every new or expectant parent I talk to!
Chelsea F.
Worked perfectly for our newborn who worked her arms out of every other swaddle product we had!!!! She would only lay on her back for minutes at a time and instantly slept for hours the first time we put her in the zen swaddle! This will be my go to gift for all expecting mother’s!
Laura B.
I absolutely love this swaddle! The feel of the fabric is so soft and cool to the touch. I feel confident that my little one is not feeling overheated yet sleeps very comfortably through the night. I especially love the fact that it will grow with my baby and she can enjoy it for longer than other swaddles that I was given. I can’t wait to purchase more!
Brittany T.
We purchased this for our 1 month old son as he was not sleeping very long at night. We love it! He sleeps minimum 3 hours sometimes up to 5 hours a night! At first we were skeptical but now we can’t go to bed without it! We will definitely continue to use it as he grows!
Cristina P.
The cotton is pretty light and I didn't read in the description that it was going to be so light, so when I took my baby out of it in the AM her feet were cold. It was sad.
Stephanie R.
I haven't had a chance to use it yet, but it is amazing. I cant wait to use it when she comes
Lauren S.
My newborn was having trouble adjusting to sleeping anywhere outside of my arms, which was incredibly frustrating after several days of no sleep. Once our Zen swaddle came, the baby took her first 2 hour nap in her crib! We’ve been using it every night since with great success... time to order another!
Stacy P.
My son likes my hand to rest on his chest, so this swaddle is great for him. The Velcro is also strong enough, which has been an issue w other brands.
Julie F.
We have been using the Zen Swaddle for about 3 weeks now with our boy and we are loving it! He loves to be held and swaddled so this is a perfect product for us. I feel like every night he is getting more and more sleep than the night before. He used to be very restless at night and would wake up every two hours but now, he will sleep anywhere from 5 to 7 hours straight before waking to nurse. Helps baby AND mama get more sleep!
Shannon H.
I’ve been lucky enough to have a newborn baby who sleeps 4 hours at a time before waking up for a feeding throughout the night. I bought the nested bean only because she wanted me to hold her all night long. As soon as I put her down, she would wake. We learned to sleep like that. The first night in her nested bean she slept 7 hours in her own bed.
Tanya P.
The sizing with the newborn pouch is super versatile and the fabric is really soft. However, my boy is very squirmy and an escape artist in his swaddles. As soon as he gets an arm out he is awake. I couldn’t get this swaddle tight enough with the stretch of the fabric and the room created by the padding. So while I think he liked the weighted packs, I haven’t noticed a ton of difference in his sleep.
Kelly J.
This has been a total game changer in our nighttime routine. Our baby knows once this is on, it’s time for real sleep. She loves it and at only 5 weeks for sure sleeps more soundly.
Phoebe N.
I think this is really helping my son sleep longer. Before he was sleeping around 3 hours and now he will sleep around 5 hours at a time. However he is long for his age (he is 2 months old) and is going to outgrow the swaddle soon because of his length. I wish there was a larger size!
Kristin B.
I was excited about purchasing this sleep sack as recommended from a friend and for the first week it worked really well. My baby's sleep did improve. After about 10 days I feel like the fabric stretched out and my baby's arms no longer stayed tight by his sides. He was getting them out by his face or caught in weird positions, no matter how tightly I swaddled. That is a little disappointing.
Fondah S.
Saved my sanity! My 7 week old was waking up every 2-3 hours, the first night trying zen swaddle he slept 5 hours straight! Now he is 10 weeks old and sleeping through the night completely! 8 hours solid!
Amy M.
Love it and use with with our other swaddle!
Emily S.
I love the size of the swaddle and how easy it is to Velcro around the baby! Unfortunately, after almost 2 weeks of use, the baby was still only doing her 4ish hour stretch at night. A bit disappointed, since the reviews sounded so promising, and we were hoping to see a 5-6 hour stretch from its use. I guess it depends on the baby!
Grace B.
My baby loves this swaddle! It helps her relax and settle down quickly.
Alejandra S.
I used the swaddle for a couple of days. And on the third day my baby was sleeping for 5 hours. I also do not have to hold him to fall asleep. The swaddle soothes him and in a few minutes he is sleeping. I completely love it!
Taylor R.
My daughter is 2 months old and she usually wakes up every 1 1/2-2 hours at night. After a few nights with the Zen Swaddle and we were sleeping 4-5 hours! The material is soft and breathable. She is a little escape artist so she is able to wiggle her little arms up under her chin, but she still is cozy and happy. When she gets bigger we'll definitely be changing to the Zen Sack!
Liz M.
We’ve had this swaddle for less than a week & our daughter has slept longer & more sound every single night since we’ve had it! We could not be happier with this purchase - total game-changer!!!
Jade B.
Bought this for our son when he was 2 months old and it changed our sleep game forever! I wish I’d bought it sooner, but didn’t make that mistake twice!...
We just had our 2nd and had it waiting on us as soon as we got home from the hospital with her.
I also tried the Halo version sold on Amazon.
Zen Swaddle is so much better because it’s weighted on the chest and sides (also better quality in my opinion). Zen ended up costing less with 15% coupon too! When she outgrows this one, we will definitely be purchasing the sleep sack again.
Breanna L.
We were skeptical about thinking a swaddle would really help our baby sleep at night because we had used regular ones before. Well our baby is 6 weeks old and she is sleeping 4-5 hour stretches at night since we started putting the swaddle on her. It has worked wonders so far! Definitely recommend.
patrizia t.
My little one sleep an extra 2-3 hrs since I’ve gotten the nested swaddle sack !
Sheila G.
My grandson loved it and sleeps better
Megan C.
My 12 week old has been sleeping all night since we bought the Zen swaddle!!
Brittany J.
As far as a swaddle sleep sack goes it is well made. The Velcro sticks only where it is supposed to unlike other brands. Unfortunatly it has been a disappointment in regards to extending our 2 mo sleep. We have been using for over a week with no results. He still wakes every 30 mins to two hours throughout the night.
Desaray B.
Love this little bean bag for my bean :) first night she slept 6 hours everyday after 8 to 9. She is so much more active during the day and happier.
Lilly 2 months old :)
Lauren R.
My baby isn't sleeping any better than he was before but he also doesn't like being swaddled anymore so I probably should have bought a sleep sack instead.
Jolita L.
I saw this product on Instagram and I wanted to give it a try and the first night my baby slept a couple more hours longer. It’s been a week and she slept 8 hrs last night! I’m so thankful because now that we have three kids I need all the sleep I can get and this swaddle allows me to get more rest at night. Thank you!!
Jessica H.
Highly recommend to any parent my 1 month old sleeps 4-5 hour stretches at night.
Kaci
My son sleeps 8 hours now! I definitely recommend this to anyone needing more sleep.
Nicole F.
My 6 week old baby girl loves being swaddled in her Zen swaddle. She seems so comfy and snuggled and has started sleeping several hours at night since we got it! Last night she slept 8!!!
M L.
My LO is 7 weeks old and would wake up every time I set him down at night... he had to basically sleep in my arms if I wanted to get any sleep! So I decided to try the Zen Swaddle and he slept 7 straight hours in his bassinet the first night! Love this swaddle, glad I didn’t wait longer to try it
Erin C.
What dreams are made of! My little one loves it and so do we!
Heidi R.
I love the swaddle but my baby is quite strong and is pushing the weighted bean sack down overnight to his belly. It helps him fall asleep faster, and perhaps he's staying asleep longer, but once the little sack gets pushed down he has to be reswaddled which upsets him. I really like the halo sleep sacks because they have the zippered body suits with the swaddle straps on top. I really wish there was a product like that from you. Or at least a way to secure the bean sack up on his chest somehow.
Lexi V.
Good swaddle! Not sure if it actually makes our little one sleep better, but if not it’s okay too because the swaddle itself is nice and soft and she isn’t able to break free from it (usually!).
Nicole D.
Well made, super soft swaddle. The options to include with/out arms down are great. I think that this helps my little one a bit, but it’s not a miracle worker. You need to implement other healthy sleep habits for the whole package. Overall I’m pleased and may upgrade to the sleep sack with a bit more time testing.
Amy M.
My little one seems to love it but I think the bottom should have a zipper or Velcro since undoing her swaddle for a diaper change is not ideal! I actually cut hers open and attached Velcro!
Raluca G.
My baby was awake all night until we put on the Zen Swaddle. I woke up 2 hours after and I checked on my baby to make sure she’s ok since she was still in the same position I left her after I swaddled her. She was perfect and content in her new “cocoon” ! Whoever came up with this idea is a genius. Thank you!!!
Karla B.
My son is 7 weeks old and we have used it for about a week and haven't noticed a difference yet. We have a hard time with daytime naps.
Kait H.
Love it- other swaddles similar are too big in her legs and having the smaller pocket option is perfect. It’s so quick to put on during the night and limits disruption after feedings.
Maggie E.
Haven’t seen a difference, it’s been over two weeks.
Emilee V.
Best swaddle ever!!
Ina B.
I gave this to my daughter for her new baby girl that was born 1/23/2020 she’ll still waiting to hear from her doctor she is concerned with her umbilical cord still on & I told her to at least try!
Lorraine D.
I purchased as a gift for a baby shower so I’ll have to wait until the baby arrives to see how it works. But looks great!
Kelly B.
Would post a photo but husband and I are keeping our daughter off of the internet. :)
This swaddle saved our sleep. Our baby girl had the hardest time going to sleep. She would be out cold in our arms but the minute we transferred her into the bassinet while wearing her halo swaddle she would immediately wake up and not go back to sleep. We would spend 1.5-2 hours just getting her back down.
We bought the Zen Swaddle hoping for the best and let me tell you-we got it. She was asleep within 10 minutes our first night. Thank you, Nested Bean. ❤️
Katie R.
The first night we used the nested bean zen swaddle our LO slept for 6 hours straight (prior he was getting up every 3-4 hours). It’s been close to two weeks and now he is sleeping up to 8 hours a night! This has been a godsend!
KRISTEN C.
Our baby loves it! Sleeps consistently 5+ hour stretches a night since we have had it!
Katelyn B.
I bought this swaddle in the hopes it would help my daughter during nap time. She’s already a great nighttime sleeper but her naps weren’t lasting more then 30 minutes for about a week prior to purchasing the swaddle. Unfortunately this swaddle has not done much to increase the length of my daughters naps since we started using it almost 2 weeks ago. The swaddle is great quality and we still use it at naps and bedtime
Halee S.
Very nice material and well made. Just didn’t help my little one sleep any better.
Natalie D.
Day 2 and my baby has gone from me sitting with him for the second half hour of his naps to keep him asleep and settled to not needing any assistance from me, yay I can get on with getting other things done now while he sleeps instead of watching over and constantly re settling him.
Ashleigh B.
I absolutely love this product!! My son is sleeping 6-8 hours a night!! I would recommend this to all mommas who are struggling with getting their little one to sleep better. My son has some tummy issues and suffers from colic and reflux. Once I put this on him I instantly saw a change! The only thing I regret is not having this product with my first two kids!
GLORIA S.
Good concept, but didn’t work for my little one. It would be great if the swaddlers had a zipper at the bottom so you don’t have to peel awful-loud Velcro during diaper changes in the middle of the night
Maria L.
After the first day of using this swaddle, I noticed a awesome improvement in my LO sleep. No more waking up during the middle of the night and having to bring him into my bed.
Brooke B.
I received the swaddle and was very excited and hopeful for more sleep for my almost 3 month old. We’ve been using it for a few weeks now and sometimes I think it has helped her fall asleep but we are still struggling with staying asleep. We are almost a week into incorporating dream feeding along with the swaddle and nothing has changed. It is a good quality swaddle but I was hoping for more results. But I won’t give up yet!
Marisa J.
Our daughter likes her swaddle enough.. I wouldn’t say she likes this one more than her old ones she grew out of (swaddleme) but I will say I like the Velcro on these much better! I’m not sure if the weighted beans do much to calm or keep her asleep, but she’s a good sleeper and we are overall happy with our purchase!
Riley B.
This swaddle works great and helps my baby sleep better, but after only a few weeks it’s already torn along the Velcro despite following the washing/care instructions. Very disappointed in quality.
Tiffanie N.
Quality material but have to swaddle tighter than I thought as he has been able to wiggle arms out but we’re about to move to one without putting arms in anyways so that could also be why.
Tiffanie N.
Quality material. My baby does sleep longer since being in this swaddle. However we do have to wrap pretty tight as he always figures out a way to get arms out easier than the halo sacks.
Melanie D.
Although I love the material and idea of this swaddle, our son was able to easily get out of it. We have other swaddles that he still hasn’t been able to get out of so not sure if we are doing something wrong.
M C.
Our little man goes down easier for nap time and seems to be able to put himself back to sleep. Highly recommend the swaddle. We also purchased the sleep sack for when he is older.
Ma Theresa A.
Loved your products! I have been giving them as gifts.
Yovanna B.
Nice material, super soft. My little one kept braking out of the swaddle regardless of how tight I made it. If your little one isn't one to fight the swaddle this would be great, but if your babe is like mine this might not work for you.
Kristen H.
After reading all the reviews that were so positive I thought this would fix our night time! Unfortunately, this swaddle did not keep my baby swaddled. She would get one arm or both arms out routinely :-( And, I feel like the weighted areas did not really change things for her, did not help calm or soothe her as I was hoping would happen. But, not all babies are the same, and ours is just a little Houdini :-) I was willing to try it!
Carrie B.
My little man is 2 months old. I bought the swaddle and started using it about a week ago. Before this swaddle, he slept ok. He’d wake up every 2-3 hours to nurse some nights. And maybe one night a week he’d sleep 5-6 hours straight. Since wearing the Zen Swaddle, he’s had more of the long stretches of sleep. In fact, 6 out of 7 nights have been 5-6+ hours straight. The material is soft and feel super well made. However, I find it difficult to get him in the swaddle just right. Maybe it’s because he’s so squirmy, but it seems like there’s so many flaps and pieces to handle. I have several different brands of swaddles I’ve been using, and don’t have a problem getting him wrapped in those. And, I don’t like that I have to take him completely out of it in the middle of the night to change his diaper which makes it that much more difficult to get him back in it in the dark and half aslee. I’ll probably upgrade to a Zen One at some point, but he still loves to be swaddled tight, so I’ll keep using this one for a while. Overall, I recommend it. Hopefully we’ll get better at using it with practice.
Erin P.
I think the sleeping after 3 days is a little misleading as that was not the case. Super cute though!!
