Gently Weighted Sleep Sack by Nested Bean: Zen Sack for a Calming Sleep

J Reese: I like the sac cause it lets my baby know it’s another bed time routine for the night!

It does seem to keep her to sleep longer for the most part! I’ll get her the next size up here soon. Been using it for months now

Kristy Mariano: Our daughter was very difficult to get to sleep. This was a perfect solution, gave her the comfort she was looking for and the ability to help mom and dad sleep through the night. Very soft and a great fit

Custeemade: Got this for our newborn niece. Her parents were anxious about transitioning their 3-month old out of the swaddle to allow her arms free now that she could roll over. After several rough nights with little sleep, they tried out the Nested Bean Zen Sack wearable blanket and it has been a total game changer for them!

Pros:

- Lightweight material is cozy but breathable enough for warm nights.
- Kiddo seems comforted by the soft, snug fit around his body.
- Arm holes are perfectly sized to keep his arms enclosed but allow movement.
- Helps her fall asleep faster and sleep longer stretches at night and for naps.
- High quality with durable construction that washes well.

Cons:

- Sizing runs small, had to size up to get good length.
- A bit pricey, especially if you need multiple. Worth it but budget accordingly.
- Can be too warm on hot summer nights. Need backup option.

Definitely a good buy but wishing it wasn't on the pricier side. The security of the fitted fabric along with room for his arms provided an ideal transition out of the swaddle. Any sleep-deprived parents out there should definitely give this wearable blanket a try! It...

Jen S: Our baby definitely sleeps longer and more soundly the nights hes wearing this. We've purchased 3 now for daycare and home and they're great quality and wash well. Would recommend to other families. I bought them when on sale, only way I could afford 3. They tend to do prime deals with them, you just have to watch. Cheapest I saw them go was $32-35.

Mitch: My 3 month old started rolling onto his side so I needed to find something fast to ease the transition out of the swaddle so his arms can be free. After about 4-5 rough nights of no sleep, we tried this and put him into his own crib in his room. For the first time ever he has slept over 7 hours straight. We finally have been able to catch up on sleep and we wake up to a happy baby. We use this for naps as well and he seems to fall asleep quickly. I love how light weight it is, as well. If you’re desperate like we were, try this. It may take a few nights to get used to but it worked for us and we are grateful.

Emily: This is good to wear until 3-4mnths max wouldn’t go beyond that with all the moving they do.

Viviane da Costa Rodrigues Alves de Lima: It reallly helped with my baby’s (3 month) self soothing. She used to wake up a lot during the night asking for her pacifier and ever since we started using it she almost never wake anymore. Great quality also. But it is a thin blanket, for winter months we will probably need to look into the winter selection instead of the classic one.

Sara Hamade: I found this really helpful in 2 things; 1- helping to integrate the bedtime routine… after bath when this goes on top of my baby’s undershirt (summer now so with 1.0 TOG wearing a onesie would get really hot for my baby + my baby overheats quickly), he knows bedtime is coming. What is good is he also sleeps without it but the benefit of putting it on leads to point #2- he can’t push it off him in the middle of the night like a regular blanket. So he won’t wake up due to feeling cold because it stays on.

The downside to it: the description does not state the TOG… we received it and it’s 1.0 TOG which is okay for April-Mid May in Canada but nearing the end of May now and it’s pretty warm for my little one. Another downside is the sizing. I’ve been using the looser clip since the 3rd week after buying it and I got size 0-6 mos. I now have to keep the zipper down or it would be too tight on his shoulders and arm pits. As I said he’s almost 4 months so it’s not even going to fit him until 6 months. For the price it should be better manufactured to last for the designated time. Maybe adding another clip/snap to the top would make it fit better?

Overall...

Amara: We hired a sleep consultant for our daughter at 6 months and she suggested a weighted sleep sack. We went with nested bean and from the first night on, our daughter has slept through the night. We previously tried everything else but my baby simply wilder stay asleep for longer than an hour or so. Our daughter is 16 months now and still sleeping soundly through the night. Also helps with safe sleeping when baby is young since they shouldn’t have blankets in the crib. Honestly I’m not sure she’ll ever be able to task asleep without being in her sleep sack. She’ll be that big kid still using one heheh.
