blankets

During the first 12 months, a baby blanket is not typically recommended for sleep, as it can pose a suffocation hazard or increase the risk of overheating. However, a baby blanket can be used outside of sleep time, such as during tummy time, playtime, or while cuddling with a parent.

The best fabric for baby blankets is one that is soft, breathable, and gentle on a baby’s delicate skin. Here are some top fabric choices for baby blankets:

Cotton Muslin – Lightweight, breathable, and incredibly soft, cotton muslin is a popular choice for baby blankets. It’s also durable, machine washable, and naturally becomes softer with each wash, making it a great option for comfort.

Organic Cotton – For parents who prefer eco-friendly fabrics, organic cotton baby blankets are a great option. They’re grown without harmful chemicals and pesticides, making them gentle on sensitive skin.

Bamboo – Bamboo fabric is hypoallergenic, moisture-wicking, and ultra-soft, making it a wonderful choice for sensitive skin. Bamboo baby blankets are also naturally temperature-regulating, helping to keep your baby comfortable.

Cotton Knit – Stretchy, soft, and breathable, cotton knit blankets provide warmth and comfort while being easy to care for. These blankets are ideal for keeping your baby cozy without being too heavy.

Yes, muslin cotton fabrics are the safest for newborns since they are breathable and lightweight, and they are a lot better alternative for babies than thick, quilted baby blankets.

When it comes to infant blankets, you will most likely want at least two blankets from each type - two for swaddling, two lightweight blankets, two weighted blankets, and two thicker ones for tummy time.
