there's a lot of resources online that can tell you all the benefits of swaddling if you wanna look into it
Receiving blankets are the ones used to wrap your baby after they're born and after a bath; Swaddle blankets are used to wrap baby up for their comfort to kind of like remind the baby of the womb, give them a feeling of security and helps baby sleep better. Keeps baby from flailing too so it can be really beneficial when breastfeeding

I'm back home from the hospital. It was a really long and hard weekend.I had my sweet baby boy. These are some of his things they gave him. That's the little hat they put on him and the little blanket they wrapped him up in. They also gave us the bear and keepsake box for his things.

I rather use those 10$ for my honest company diaper subscription.

A month today you went to sleep, I would give anything to hold your hand walking down the street, to push you down the slide, tuck you in bed and read your favourite book, the point where I now know it off by heart, to chase after you on the hobby horse whilst you run around shouting 'ye hah' , to have our late night cuddles on the couch with our blankets til we fall asleep together. I've lost my best friend, my purpose in life, my world.
swaddle blanket are amazing. they range from 36 inches to 47 inches. I've used them for my daughter since she was a newborn. now she's 18 months and we have her 47×47 swaddle blankets and we use those as cover at night. they are HUGE. and come in handy. they can also be used as breast feeding covers as well as carseat covers.
