Is it OK to swaddle a newborn at night?

Yes! We recommend swaddling a newborn at night (and nap time!) to help your baby sleep more soundly.

And of course, caregivers should always follow safe sleep guidelines - babies should be placed on their back with nothing in the crib, including toys or blankets.
