aden + anais swaddle blankets

This is a purchase that I almost didn't make because of the initial price. The blankets come to $8.75 a piece but are generally sold in packs of four. So the initial purchase price is around $35. It's not a completely absurd price, but when you're comparing them to packs of  flannel receiving blankets, it seems like a lot.  However, if I could have a redo on things I purchased when my daughter was born, I probably would not have purchased any other blankets than these. I've used the flannel blankets once or twice, but I've used the muslin blankets more times than I could possibly count. 

They are so multifunctional!
* Substantial size for swaddling (I had a tough time swaddling with other blankets)
* Easy nursing covers (just knot two of the sides together and there you go)
* Great for shielding baby from the sun while in the carseat or stroller
* Breathable for summer and great as a car blanket in the winter
* Great to lay on during "tummy time"

In Summary:
Price: $35 for a pack of 4. BUT they can be more if you are ordering them directly from the company! I've bought mine at Target and also ordered a pack off of Amazon. 
Things to Know: These a great quality blankets. The directions say something along the lines of wash them gently (or maybe it's separately) in cold water... and to be honest, I've just thrown them in with whatever I'm washing at the time and they've worn so well! They look just as great as the day I bought them.
