How to Swaddle Your Baby Judgement-Free

You may notice the swaddle police on the internet condemning mothers who swaddle claiming, "You should just hold your baby instead of using a baby swaddle!"

We have all received unjust criticism, so we'd like to share some tips. If you get hate from people like this on the internet or from people in real life, take a deep breath and remind yourself:

1. This person doesn't know your story.
2. You are a great caregiver.
3. Millennial parents are the best parents in history. We keep improving even though we get less support.
4. The person making these comments probably has at least 2 or 3 grandchildren they haven't seen in years.

Hate on the internet is just that. Hate. It has no place in your mind, body or life.

When I meet customers who follow the Swaddelini videos I often get asked this.

"How do you handle hateful comments?"

Unfortunately, I have had to deal with bullying from a young age, and I choose not to let it bother me anymore. However, if someone says something offensive to my customers, then I get upset.

Despite many filters on my social I can't prevent everything. Please don't take the crazy people's comments seriously. They just have nothing better to do than criticize new mothers on the internet. We should feel sorry for them. 

Thank you for hearing out my thoughts today. You are a capable caregiver, using a sleep sack is a tool you use to be a better parent.
