I am going to pop out tomorrow and buy some merino to make a couple of swaddles/wraps for baby. How big should I make them? 1m x 1m? Would that last about 3mths? I can't really remember how big the ones were that we had for Jack. ------------- Lindsey

1mx1m should be big enough, i wouldn't do any smaller though. My boy is 2 months and will still fit in his wraps for a while longer and they are about the same size. ------------- Lisa mummy to Ryan http://www.alterna-tickers.com">

Issy's were 1.3 wide by 1.3 long, it was awesome as she was able to be wrapped for ages and it was wide enough that she was unable to wriggle out. ------------- Mummy to Issy (3) and Elias (18 months) I did it .. 41 kgs gone!

Yeah I would go with 1.3m minimium as it just gives you that little extra room for getting them to stay in the wrap. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

1x1 wraps annoy me. My 1.2x1.2 wraps are awesome
