Love to Dream Swaddle Up™ 3.5 TOG Cotton - Oatmeal Moon Quilting

The Love to Dream Swaddle Up™ 3.5 TOG Cotton is the warmest swaddle in the Love to Dream range, designed to keep newborns cosy and secure in colder rooms and winter nights. Built with quilted 100% cotton — soft outer, inner, and cotton filling — it delivers the natural ARMS UP™ sleep position your baby instinctively prefers, even in the coldest conditions.

Features

• ARMS UP™ position: Supports natural hand-to-face self-soothing, helping babies settle more easily and sleep for longer stretches.
• 3.5 TOG quilted warmth: Thick quilted cotton construction provides insulation for rooms under 16°C — perfect for cold Australian winters or poorly heated rooms.
• 100% cotton Quilted Cotton: Outer, inner, and filling all 100% cotton for natural breathability and warmth without synthetic fibres.
• Two-way zip with chin guard: Opens from the bottom for nappy changes without a full unwrap; chin guard protects baby's face from zip contact.
• Calms the Moro (startle) reflex: Even, snug pressure around the body reduces startle wake-ups that interrupt sleep cycles.
• INPAA approved: Tested and approved by the Infant and Nursery Products Association of Australia for safe infant sleep.
• Multiple sizes: Available in Newborn (2.2–3.8 kg), Small (3.5–6 kg), and Medium (6–8.5 kg) — suitable from birth to approximately 3 months.

Why parents love the Love to Dream Swaddle Up™ 3.5 TOG Cotton

Winter babies need extra warmth without extra bulk, and the 3.5 TOG Swaddle Up™ delivers exactly that. The quilted cotton construction wraps your baby in natural warmth that breathes well, so there's no risk of sweating inside a synthetic fleece. The ARMS UP™ design means your baby can still self-soothe with hands near their face — even bundled up for a cold night — and the two-way zip means you can handle nappy changes without fully waking them. For families with cold bedrooms or those who don't run heating overnight, this is the essential winter swaddle.

FAQs

How warm is 3.5 TOG and when should I use it?
3.5 TOG is the warmest rating in Love to Dream's swaddle range, designed for rooms under 16°C. It's ideal for cold winter nights, unheated bedrooms, or early morning hours when temperatures drop. For milder rooms (20–24°C), use the 1.0 TOG instead.

Is 100% cotton safe for a thick winter swaddle?
Yes — in fact it's preferable. Cotton breathes naturally, so even in a thick quilted construction, your baby's body can regulate temperature more effectively than in synthetic materials. The quilted cotton outer, inner, and filling all work together to provide warmth without trapping moisture.

How do I choose the right size?
Size by your baby's current weight: Newborn (2.2–3.8 kg), Small (3.5–6 kg), Medium (6–8.5 kg). If your baby is at the upper end of a size range, size up to allow room for movement.

Is the 3.5 TOG Swaddle Up™ safe for overnight use in winter?
Yes, it's INPAA approved and meets Australian safety standards for infant sleep. Always check the room temperature is genuinely under 16°C before using a 3.5 TOG, and follow Red Nose Australia safe sleep guidelines.

When should I transition my baby out of this swaddle?
Transition once your baby begins rolling. Love to Dream's 2-in-1 Transition Bag is the natural next step — it has detachable ARMS UP™ wings so you can remove one arm at a time for a gradual, less disruptive transition.
