: I don't know... I looked at the site and I believe the picture of the "happy baby all wrapped up" was digitally edited. That baby looks too old to enjoy being swaddled... and usually colic ends WELL before the baby starts to get teeth. The one has 2 already. Either that baby is going to be another Shaquille O'Neal, or the picture is a fake. : And a company that tries to sell a product using a fake photo to show how "great" it is makes me wonder. : Truly, this "Miracle Blanket" is nothing more than a blanket with a few extra pockets sewn into it. I imagine anyone with any sewing ability can make one themselves. : I mean, if you figure a nice quality blanket costs $5., and a few extra pieces of fabric cost $2, why pay $30 to get it? I don't think these extra pockets are worth the additional cost. And besides, wrapping a baby up tightly isn't necessarily going to calm him/her. Don't get me wrong, swaddling is great for an infant, and even one who is going through colic. But I warn against relying on a single "miracle cure". Especially when that "miracle cure" is gonna cost you $30. : I guess for parents desperate for a solution, this is a small price to pay. I've been there, I know. But I've also been taken a lot too, and this post just rubs me the wrong way. I must say that I doubt the true intentions of the original poster. I think this person may indeed work for these people and very cleverly disguised her post to seem like a concerned parent. This way she gets around the human spam filter that is our all-powerful moderator. : I could be wrong, but I don't think so. : These are just my opinions, and do not reflect those of the Baby-Place.com owners or staff.
