No parent should ever have to go through what William Schmid and his wife went through...losing their baby to SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome.) in the year 1991. Three years later, Bill decided to use his experience to foster safer sleep situations for babies through newly developed sleep products offered under his company HALO Innovations.

The HALO SleepSack is one such product. The easy to use swaddle sack to keep your baby cozy and most importantly safe.

Since Bunny Boo is expected to arrive in less than 95 days time, we decided to practice with another 'baby'...Bunny girl's Snow White.


Our stepwise guide to using the HALO Sleepsack:

1. Gently place your little bundle of joy into the sack and slip his/her hands through the arm holes


2. Zip your little one into his/her little 'sleep-sack'


3. Place baby's arms parallel to his/her body and wrap the right flap onto the left side of the body

4. Then bring the left flap over to velcro fasten the flaps together. (This has a wide margin for adjustment, thus ensuring baby's movements are not restricted)


Now you have a neatly swaddled baby in his/her warm cocoon...a literal 'wearable blanket'.


If you feel its too warm to keep baby's arms swaddled in with the flaps, you can remove the swaddle feature and leave it as a sleeveless 'sleep-sack' instead.

I'm so grateful for the smart ideas God has given people like Bill Schmid. I know, as parents, a newborn at home does keep us 'on alert' all the time and having great products like the HALO SleepSack, only helps us breathe easier and enjoy our newborn with a little less worrying!
