Snuggle Me Review March 2, 2018
Thank you to Snuggle Me for sponsoring today’s post! Before I get into this, I just want to say that YES this is a sponsored post, but I’ve been trying out this product since we had Austin to determine if I actually liked it or not. Because I DO like it, I’m sharing my Snuggle Me Review on here today! 🙂
Snuggle Me Review
I’m really excited to share this review on the Snuggle Me today with you because I’ve had an INFLUX of questions from you guys asking me if you think it’s worth registering for or the investment. Today I’m going to share with you my Snuggle Me review and why I think this product takes the lead in baby loungers on the market!

If you haven’t heard of the Snuggle Me before, it’s the one and one sensory lounger for baby (typically from age newborn to 5-6 months when they outgrow it). It’s specifically designed to contour to baby’s head and torso and is specially designed to help baby stay secure and remain on their back while laying down (and preventing them from rolling over!). When baby is laid on the unique “center sling,” the sides of the Snuggle Me gentle pull against the baby, somewhat mimicking a hug. This soothes the moro reflex (more commonly known as the “startle” reflex) and creates a gentle environment for baby to rest in. The Snuggle Me is the ONLY product that has this feature!
I’ll be honest, I was a little hesitant when I first received the Snuggle Me. It looks like a pillow, and we all know what they say about pillows and babies. It didn’t feel very firm, and I was worried about it being breathable for Austin. I did some poking around the website and learned the special design actually omits the factors I was concerned about. And that it’s actually the safest baby lounger on the market!
Snuggle Me is made from materials manufactured in the USA, and is also certified organic (you can see their certifications here)! They are incredibly open about the materials they use in their product, and you can find more information about them right here. Snuggle Me is NOT manufactured with any flame retardants ethylene glycol, BPAs, phthalates, or lead. They also use certified organic materials that are chemical free! I really appreciate when brands care as much about ingredients and materials as I do. It makes me feel better knowing its constructed with safe materials!
Snuggle Me has a fantastic website with amazing safety tips on how to use the product SAFELY and effectively. For instance, they do not advise it being used in a separate room as an adult and state it should not be used inside of a crib. I really commend them for sticking to their safety guidelines, which you can see all of right here. Baby sleep safety is a hot topic, and rightfully so. I’m super particular about following guidelines because of SIDS, and it’s not worth risking!
So is it worth it? My honest opinion is YES. I’ve been having Austin sleep in the Snuggle Me when I’m in the same room quietly getting work done, and I also love using it as a lounger when we’re hanging out as a family. It’s easy to clean, hypoallergenic, and I feel SAFE using it. And Austin likes it too! He’s super content every time I place him in it, which is always a good thing!
If you want to read more about why Snuggle Me is truly the best option, head over to this page on their website! They explain everything from why they omitted a padded bottom to why the length and width are key design elements. I guarantee you’ll feel more confident in your purchase after checking it out!

I LOVE the Snuggleme! It’s literally lifesaving, it seems to be the only place my two week old can sleep soundly, I thinking because of its snug and comfy hold on him. Plus it’s organic and made here in the US out of nontoxic materials, such a win! Definitely my favorite baby product I registered for by far!!
Hi Lauren – what is the cute beaded paci thing your sweet little Austin has?
It’s a Ryan and Rose Cutie Clip!
Hi Lauren,
I’m definitely excited about this and even more by reading your review. For my first two kids we used the Rock N Play for sleeping/ lounging; however both kids were not fans so that has lead me to the search for something else. Tuning in tonight on IG!
We love the rock n play, too!
Thank you so much for posting this review. I’ve been sold in the “other brand” for awhile now and had no idea there was even another option on the market. I was surprised to see such a significant difference between the two and to read that there are so many safety benefits to the SnuggleMe. Plus, it’s a tad more affordable than the other as well. This review is a huge game changer as we prepare (8 weeks) for baby boy to arrive! Thank you again. 🙂
Yes!!! Congrats, and you’re welcome!!
With 6 kids I’ve tried out a lot of baby products. Wanted something this time around that was easier for cosleeping. After seeing the price on the Dockatot I went searching for something similar but a t a better price point and came across the snuggle me. I was also initially worried about the whole pillow like aspect and but after reading about it I decided to try it out. Been using it for 2 weeks now and it’s fabulous. No worries whatsoever about baby not being safe. The way it’s made really is special and their is no concern. Baby loves it, I love it and only wish it would have been around for my other babies!!!
Awesome! So glad to hear this!
This is not recommended for overnight sleeping, right? I am so confused with these products and what they are really intended for!
I know many who use it to co-sleep!
That’s because it’s a liability to recommend night sleep etc with pillows like this. They say it should only be used during the day when supervised but I have used this with both of my babies for over night sleep as well and they have been dream sleepers. Both slept so well in the snuggle me and through the night (12 hours) at 3 months and we never looked back! Transitioning them out takes a day or two but wasn’t bad at all. They got the hang of it right away.
hi! when did you know to transition the baby out of the snuggle me??
Hi Lauren, LOVE your blog! I’m about to be a first time Mom and was wondering if you think this is worth getting in addition to the rock n play sleeper?
Yes, I do! 🙂
Hi Lauren,
I’m really thinking about ordering this! Looks amazing. How long is the coupon code good for?! Doing some more research!
Thanks!
Jenny
6 months!! 🙂
How do we use the coupon code?
Just use it on their website! 🙂
HI Lauren- How long would you say baby fits in this, my only concern is baby will outgrow it very quickly as i’ve read it’s a little small in size?
Yes, they grow out of it by 6 months!
Hi Lauren!
How long has your LO been able to use the snuggle me? Past 6 months? Thanks!????
The snuggle me cannot be used past 6 months 🙂
I know this is an old post, but can you let me know if you have the optic white or natural/ivory color?
Hello! What color cover did you get for your snuggle me, white or natural? Also, how did they wash? Thank you!
Hi Lauren, thanks for the review! I’ve been looking into getting one. Our little one is due in March :). I tried to use your coupon code but it says it’s invalid.
