weighted body warmers / blankets

Has anyone ever used either of these things on their child? 

My daughter has now been confirmed as having ADHD & started medication today. She will be re-assessed for Aspergers once her medication has taken affect, but the last three assessments she had all showed very likely for Aspergers aswell.  I just wondered if a weighted body warmer would help calm her during the day.  I put a heavy blanket on her bed two nights ago and for the last two nights she has slept right through.  She hasn't slept all night for the last 8 months!!  It could just be coincendence though.

The body warmers cost quite a bit so wanted to know if anyone had any feedback before I shelled out for one.

Thanks. x
