http://www.DadLabs.com - In this episode we offer some techniques for swatting your baby. Nicknamed "the burrito," this is a simple swaddling method that dads can easily learn. You infant or baby will be much easier to sooth when properly swaddled. We bring in our expert pediatrician and Baby 411 author Ari Brown to demonstrate this swaddling technique. Baby Zoe volunteers to help out. All you need is a receiving blanket and some practice to be a master burrito swaddler. If you have a colicky baby, this technique is really useful to pacify the baby. Some studies have shown that proper swaddling can reduce the risk of SIDS. Miracle Blanket, Sleepsack and Truewomb are specialized swaddling blankets if a simple receiving blanket is not enough or you are worried about choking hazards.Ep 810 is brought to you by BabyBjorn and their new Baby carrier Miracle.

@stephshan Definitely a loose style. I prided myself on a snug burrito, but the AAP has come out with some recommendations for a looser style. I think that is what Dr. Brown is referring to.
