Does anyone know what brand weighted blanket and or the weights
My aunt is making me 2 weighted blankets for both of my kids. But u can find them on line.
I saw someone on here a few months ago, who maked weighted blankets. where can i get one that isnt crazy expensieve and hot, hypoallergenic?my son sweats alot gets over heated, is an eptileptic as well, but when I put a pillow on his chest, sometimes it calms him. Ive seen them on line for several hundred. uh, poor here? his teacher mentioned a mummy sleeping bag, but it would be too hot, he could have seizure

I take a blanket and roll my son in it, making sure his hands are tucked in as well. I tuck him as tight as I can and then I squeeze him and it calms him down quite alot. Or if you have a bean bag… read more
My son is piling on stuff on top of his bed on top of him every night and a friend just offered to pay for a weighted blanket. He loves deep pressure too, but also wears a weighted vest when at school that they provide. They also provide the pressure vest. I think the weight will help him sleep. He sleeps better with all the pile on him and cries if things fall off during the night.

Ours is now 3 years old and looks as nice as it did on day ONE. Our daughter cannot sleep without it...even in the summer. I just wish I could get one for my King bed!!!
Just wanted to know if anyone has used a weighted blanket for their child. I think Makayla would really benefit from one. They are expensive, but i may ask my mom and dad if they would go in on one with me.
It's nice to get different side to help our kids..... Great job everyone😊
Unusual question but best place to ask it.. does anyone know if its safe to wash a weighted blanket in a FRONT load washer? Wife is worried the extra weight will damage the washer
I dry ours in the dryer! Both the boys have heavy ones. I do them one at a time on permanent press cycle.
What is a weighted blanket used for?
I use a heavy leather coat as I couldn't afford one Abigail loves it.
My daughter uses a compression sheet on the advice of our OT. She loves it.
If it continues for a long time, I would consider ruling out and potential medical issues
Anyone have any information on how to go about getting a weighted blanket and ipad covered through insurance? my daughter is on state insurance.
Insurance will cover weighted blankets??
