I remember that sweet moment when my youngest slept through the night, three nights in a row. I thought I was golden. In fact, I started thinking about what I would do with all my extra time; would I sleep more, blog more, clean? The possibilities were endless. Then the fourth night came. And we were up three times. I must have jinxed myself; this sweet little lady went from 11 straight hours to barely 4. And then we started the oh so fun phase of only sleeping soundly when being held. Transferring wasn’t a possibility, whether she was fully asleep or just drowsy. She would wake up and go 0 to 60 in no time flat. Everyone in the house enjoyed that. We tried swaddling again and little Houdini was out in no time. Luckily Nested Bean created items to help put the zen back in your evening.
Nested Bean came to my rescue and in a BIG way! Did you know that studies prove that babies who are being held sleep longer and are happier and calmer in your embrace? I did. Little one was proof positive. Luckily the folks at Nested Bean did their research and have found touch from an object can evoke the same self-soothing response. They created the Zen Swaddle and Zen Sack to help help babies fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.
When I first opened the Zen Sack I noticed how soft the fabric was. I wouldn’t mind being cozied up in a sack like this all night long! I love that the sack sizes are either 0-6 months or 6-12 months. There is plenty of room for growth and space for little legs to kick around. There is a two way zipper system built in to make diaper changes easy, even at night. They also have shoulder snaps, with two rows to help accommodate baby growth.
I started putting little lady in her sack each evening. The first couple of nights I didn’t notice a change. On the fourth night, she only woke up once. After the first week, we were sleeping soundly yet again. That little padded chick on the front of the Zen Sack has been a lifesaver! Thanks Nested Bean for helping me and baby girl sleep more soundly!

I definitely believe that this sleep sack helps babies feel warm and SAFE and sleep longer at night. 🙂 It would be perfect for my good friend who is about to have her first baby!
Dana Rodriguez says
I think this would be perfect for our first grandbaby that will be arriving in a few months!

Anything that comforts a baby will help them sleep longer, I want to try this with my granddaughter.
Laura says
This sounds much easier than swaddling. I especially like the a two way zipper system. What an awesome product. Love it!
Amber Ludwig says
My son was such an awful sleeper!! Id spend his nap times holding him and not being able to get anything done!! While I cherish those moments I bet nested bean would be a huge help for our next one!
Ruth Griffeth says
I love the swaddle blankets, to have those would be a time saver for me. I have been swaddling the old fashioned way, with a receiving blankets, and taking at least 3 tries before you get it right.
Marti Tabora says
I’m hoping it will help my son and his wife since they are expecting my first grandchild in about a week. This would be great for the baby.
Sherry Compton says
The two way zipper is a great and helpful feature, especially for all those late night changes.
