receiving blanket
Infant swaddling cloth
A receiving blanket is a small, lightweight blanket used to wrap newborn babies.
The name comes from the act of receiving—the blanket is what the baby is wrapped in immediately after birth or when being handed to someone.
Receiving blankets are typically made of soft, breathable fabric like cotton or flannel: The nurse swaddled the newborn in a receiving blanket.
