Great for transition from incline to flat sleeping

I bought the nested bean zen sleep sack to help my 2 month old transition from his inclined sleeping bassinet to sleeping flat on his back in a pack and play which he hated. First night we had to visit a couple of times the first 30 minutes to put his pacifier back in, but he slept through the night after that. He's now sleeping through the night every night. Recently we went on our first out of town overnight trip. We used the sleep sack and despite the change in environment we had no issues getting him down for the night. I love the sleep sack and it's made with nice fabrics. Highly recommend it.

Ahh....sleep!

We had a perfect sleep from the time she came home from the hospital until she was six months old. Then, suddenly, she started waking up...alot! That's a normal age for sleep regression, but after a couple months we needed sleep! We bought the Zen sack 8 days ago. So far, we have definitely seen improvement. Now, she wakes once, maybe twice, a night...which is way better than every 1-2 hours! There has even been a couple nights when she didn't wake at all. Is it a perfect solution? No. But we didn't expect it to be. Does it work for everyone? No. But every baby is different, so you never know until you try it. Even if you don't see improvement in sleep, this is a very nice, high quality sleep sack, so you won't be disappointed!

I like how the material is not too heavy

I used the sleep sack to transition my baby out of the swaddle. At first it did seem to improve her sleep but I'm not sure how much the weighted chest contributed to that since I never tried a regular sleep sack. Regardless, she never sleeps without it and I just ordered the next size up. I like how the material is not too heavy, the zipper is the perfect size and the shoulders are adjustable. The fabric has just enough stretch to it and the beans add a nice amount of weight without me worrying it's too much on her chest. It washes well too.

Absolute winner in my book

My little one loved being swaddled, but started fighting her arms out and later rolling so we had to do away with it. During that time, we also had to transition her to her crib. We had been struggling with that transition and she would very frequently wake up shortly after being placed in her crib (we are still working on getting her to fall asleep on her own). We tried various other sleep sacks (Halo, Zipadeezip, Love to Dream Swaddleup), but none of them really helped her sleep situation. She was sleeping in about 3 hour increments during the night, if that. Since starting to use this weighted zen sack approximately a week ago, she is now sleeping 4-6 hour increments during the night. I took a leap of faith on this product and I highly recommend it for the parents who have tried other sleep sacks with little or no improvement.

LIFE SAVER!!!!

I was super skeptical about this product but now I am obsessed!!! Our daughter would only sleep in her Rock-n-Play so I purchased this sleep sack in hopes it would help with a smooth transition to her bassinet (and eventually crib)... She slept for 10-hours straight on her first night in her bassinet while wearing this! She had never slept for more than 6.5 hours in one stretch. Now she wears this every night and sleeps in her own room for 10-12 hours!!! I am a believer! Oh I’m also a bit of a clean freak, so I wash this twice a week (and dry it) and it’s held up perfectly!

Love this!

My baby is a belly sleeper, so he wears this backwards, and I will honestly say I absolutely love it! It definitely helps him stay asleep after putting him down. He randomly jerks his body parts sometimes and usually it wakes him up but the weight of this helps him feel I guess held down but in a good way. I recommend trying it out, just keep in mind there’s a lot of factors that attribute to a baby sleeping longer stretches. Comfort, while it is one of the factors, isn’t all of it. But that may bethe one more factor your baby needs. Their customer setvice is great, if you need help with your baby sleeping they will give you tips and advice to pair with their sleep sacks.

MORE SLEEP

We aren't sure if this is coincidence or not however I'll weigh in on this sleep sack. I ordered one for LO because he was refusing to sleep alone. I had to be holding him. It was awesome and also a nightmare. He nurses and our night time routine was honestly starting to make me look and feel like a zombie. He was waking every 2 hours to nurse so I was waking every hour and a half and I felt as though I was losing touch with reality at some point lol here comes Amazon shipments ordered one late night while sleep deprived and the main one being the Zen Sack here. The first night wearing it (at 2.5 months old) he slept 6 hours straight and I woke up literally feeling like I could run a marathon because I had slept so deeply. Night 2, same thing, sleep! That morning, he threw up on it and I set it aside to be washed (didn't get washed for 4 days at least) BUT he kept sleeping.... He's still sleeping through the night waking once around 5 to nurse. Last night he slept from 7pm to 5am, nursed and slept again until 930. So, I'm not sure if this works, could be coincidence for sure, maybe it worked as a sleep trainer and he caught on real quick... No clue. However, i will highly recommend this to all friends and family. I know this household is sleeping better 💯

It works....I think

My 4 months old son at two months was going to sleep around 9, waking up at 3 and sleeping till 6...then his bed time was moved up because he started napping at 6 and not wanting to wake up after for his normal 8/9 p.m. feed so we started putting him to sleep at 7, which for some reason completely screwed up his night time routine. I had just went back to work and he was waking up not only to eat 2-3 times at night, but shortly after going to sleep he would wake up for no apparent reason. I was waking up some nights 5 times so I was desperate to try anything to help. I was aware of this product and always wondered if it would work for us, and honestly did not want to spend another $40 on a gimmick. Well, one sleepless night I logged onto Amazon and decided to buy the Zen sack. As soon as it came, we tried it that night. Well, nothing happened. He still woke up multiple times that night and the night after that and the night after that. I told myself that it did not work but I let him still wear it on top of his regular swaddle sack (the one with the arms up) because it was starting to get chillier at night. lo and behold exactly a week later, something happened. He went to sleep at 7 like always, and woke up at 12:30 a.m. like he did on his good nights and I fed him, but then he slept from 12:30 a.m. until 3, cooed for a bit, then went back to sleep ON HIS OWN until 7. Let me tell you, we did not change anything in our routine, and as much as I want to take credit for this miracle, it has nothing to do with me. But you might say, well one night means nothing. I agree. So the next night, I put him down at 7 like always, he woke up at 1:30 (again similar to what he did on his good nights) and then I nursed him and put him back to sleep and he slept....until 7 again! well third night came and at this point I am happy but nervous that these past beautiful nights of uninterrupted 5 hours of sleep might change, but yep, he did it again....woke up at 1, nursed, and then slept until 7. Sooo is it coincidence that a week after he started wearing the Zen sack he went from waking up multiple times a night to only once? maybe. But I really think this works. Will it work for you? maybe/maybe not but if you are as sleep deprived as I was, it is certainly worth the try, and hey, if it does nt work , it is a nice/cute sleep sack for your baby. Good luck!

Great for a baby who wiggles a lot in their sleep!

This is my 6th baby and the first time I have tried a sleep sack. My other babies slept fine with a swaddle blanket but baby #6 moved around so much that many times during and after her naps I would find the swaddle blanket dangerously wrapped around her neck and head. So I immediately did a search on sleep sacks and was skeptical that a baby could get cozy in one of these. I have been pleasantly surprised! She loves her sleep sack! And I have peace of mind. She has been sleeping with it for about 3 weeks and even rolls from back to tummy during naps while wearing her sleep sack with no problems. I love this thing! Oh, and she started using this at 5 months.

Sleep-saver!!

I was honestly a little skeptical when I purchased this product. Our little girl was 2 months old and sleeping okay - waking up about 2-3 times a night and occasionally having a bad night where I would have to hold her, no joke, all night long. The biggest issue was that she HAD to be sleeping right next to me and would wake up the instant I would try to transfer her to our bedside bassinet. Don't get me wrong, I love baby snuggles but babies are bedhogs and I really just wanted to sleep on my back for once in my life, lol. So, enter Nested Bean sleep sack. Oh my lanta, it was night and day; and she was already a moderately good sleeper. The instant I put it on her she immediately calmed down and just chilled. What?? We've had this sleep sack for about a month and she's only waking up once a night, if at all. I can move her while she's sleeping and she barely stirs; I've even been able to transfer her into her crib across the room. Amazing! As a full time working mom, I'm so grateful for the rest I'm actually getting now! If it matters to you, review reader, she's exclusively breast fed. I know formula fed babies tend to sleep for longer stretches, but if you're a breast feeding momma I super highly recommend this! I literally show it to all my momma friends, coworkers, random people I run into who ask how my baby is sleeping. All of them. Buy this super cute sleeping sack, seriously.
