You’re super sleep deprived as a new parent! For all those sleep deprived parents out there, here are my baby sleep essentials to help even the WORST sleeper!

The Miracle Blanket Swaddle is the #1 item on my baby sleep essentials must-have list for babies 0-3 months. It suppressed both of my kids’ startle reflex and calmed them down when they were sleeping or upset.
