Receiving Blanket - Dream Big

Yes! It's one of the must-haves for your delivery hospital bag, perfect for first cuddles and the trip home.

Definitely! It's one of the very first things new parents use, and it stays useful as a playmat later on.

It's a soft, cushioned blanket used to wrap and hold your newborn in the first few weeks. It's often the very first thing your baby is wrapped in.

The classic size is 30" x 30", and that's exactly what ours measures. It's just right for wrapping a newborn snugly.

A receiving blanket is smaller and, in our case, softly cushioned for easy holding. A swaddle is larger and thinner, made for snug wrapping as your baby grows.

Most parents like to keep a few handy, so there's always a clean one ready while the others are in the wash.

It's sized for roughly the first month. After that, it becomes a playmat.

Yes! It opens out flat, so once your baby outgrows it, it's perfect for tummy time and play.

It's made for holding, carrying and cuddles. For sleep, lay your baby on their back in a cot with a light swaddle or sleeping bag, and no padded blankets around them.

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, then tumble dry low or dry in shade. Make sure it's completely dry before using it again.
