swaddle
This term evokes a sense of protective containment and warmth, specifically tailored to the vulnerability of newborns. It carries a strong connotation of security and soothing, mimicking the tight environment of the womb to prevent the startle reflex and promote sleep.
As a noun, the word refers to the physical textile used for this purpose. While it is generally countable, it is often used in a way that emphasizes the state of being wrapped rather than the individual piece of fabric.
