It should be noted that in the above implementations, the baby swaddle can be used for different age stages from newborns to babies around one year old. The baby swaddle can be used to wrap a baby from one to four months old, simulating the baby's wrapped state in the womb and helping the baby sleep soundly. Babies aged four to nine months are in a transitional period of sleep and do not require swaddling. They can put their hands and feet in the baby swaddle for free movement, thereby enhancing their sense of security and avoiding catching cold in cold weather. Babies aged nine months to one year have high physical resistance, have developed good sleep habits, and have entered an independent sleep period. Their hands and feet can be appropriately exposed, so the baby swaddle can be used as clothing or a sleeping bag. The baby swaddle has a wide range of applications for babies in different age stages, diverse usage methods, and simple operation, without the need to frequently change the baby swaddle or purchase additional sleeping bag as the baby grows, saving costs. More importantly, familiar smell makes the baby feel safe, and using the same baby swaddle can soothe the baby, ensuring high sleep quality and contributing to the healthy growth and stable personality development of the baby.
The present disclosure is described in detail above. Specific cases are used herein to illustrate the principle and implementation of the present disclosure, and the description of the above embodiments is only intended to help understand the core idea of the present disclosure. It should be noted that several improvements and modifications may also be made by those of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the principles of the present disclosure, which also fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present disclosure.
