What is the difference between the Sleeping Bag and a Cocoon Swaddle Sleeping Bag?Updated 2 months ago

Difference Between Cocoon Swaddle Bag and a Sleeping Bag

The Cocoon Swaddle Bag is a secure, zip-up sleeping solution that combines the benefits of a swaddle and a sleeping bag. TOG-rated for safety, it's designed for newborns, making safe sleep easier for parents. The Cocoon features press studs that allow you to choose whether your baby sleeps with their arms tucked in or out, based on their preference.

The Sleeping Bag is an organic cotton sleeping bag designed for babies and toddlers who are rolling and prefer to sleep with their arms out (usually from around 3 months of age). Made from organic cotton and elastane, it provides a soft, stretchy fit that feels like a T-shirt. The slim-fit design offers comfort and freedom of movement while keeping your little one cozy.

Which One Should I Choose?

If your baby is rolling, it’s time to transition to sleeping with their arms out, as swaddling can restrict arm movement, which is important for their ability to roll back over if they end up on their stomach.

If you’re already using the Cocoon Swaddle Bag, that’s okay! The press studs let you switch between arms-in and arms-out as your baby’s needs evolve. Once your baby has outgrown the swaddle stage, transitioning to a   Sleeping Bag is a great next step. It offers more freedom of movement while maintaining a safe and secure sleep environment for your little one.
