012: Postpartum Truths and Baby Travel Hacks from Swaddelini Creator Liz Hilton
If you’ve ever tried to soothe a newborn mid-flight—or just survive those foggy postpartum weeks—this episode is for you.
We’re joined by Liz Hilton, a designer, entrepreneur, and mom of four who turned her own postpartum struggles into the award-winning Swaddelini: a seamless swaddle designed for babies who “hate swaddles.” With a background in fashion and 3D knitting, Liz shares the behind-the-scenes story of how she created a product that helps parents around the world sleep better, travel lighter, and feel more supported.
This episode isn’t just about a swaddle—it’s about redefining support in early motherhood. From the real talk on postpartum emotional distress to tips for flying solo with a baby, Liz gets honest about what it means to run a business and raise a family at the same time.
✨ Just a few of the questions we tackled in this episode:
- What is the best swaddle for babies who hate swaddling?
- How can I get better sleep during the postpartum stage?
- What are the safest swaddles for newborn travel or flights?
- How do I prepare my partner to support me after birth?
- What’s the difference between postpartum depression and postpartum emotional distress?
Whether you're a new mom feeling overwhelmed in your recovery or a seasoned traveler looking for better baby gear, Liz's story will leave you feeling more equipped—and less alone.
