Babies: 9 - 12 Months

when did you stop using sleep sacks?

DS was swaddled for a LONG time, and he isn't much of a mover in his sleep. He sleeps on his side, and only rolls over in the morning when he wakes up, and then gets into his crawling position.

Currently he sleeps in a babylicious or aden and anais sleep sack, but now that he is crawling I am wondering if we shouldn't use sleep sacks?

Any thoughts? Thanks!

    We stopped swaddling DS around 5 months and used a sleep sack until 6 months. Ever since then we've just used a blanket. Now when he gets up in the morning, he's in any position other than the one he fell asleep in!

  • We still use them some nights. For us it's more a function of the weather overnight, since he's not crawling yet.

  • DDs still in her sleep sack and she's been crawling all over the place for months.  She tends to move quite a bit during the night and blankets don't stay on her.
  • We still use them, we moved up to the larger size. He's constantly on the move, even in his sleep so this really helps us.
  • we still use them and plan to keep them till we start feeling confident she's safe with blanket...21 maybe? =P

    two weeks ago, she rolled the blanket around her head covering her face. we were lucky it was caught quickly.

     she is crawling, but don't see any problem with the sleep sack.

  • We stopped using them around 5 months because he got too tall for the ones we had (the ones that say 0-9 months!).

  • My first son slept in Halo sleepsacks until he was about 2yr.  And now Halo makes one with foot holes for toddlers.  It depends on how your LO handles being in the sleepsack, but it worked good for my first.  And they are a lot safer then loose blankets.

  • I still use one.  He moves around so much that I want to make sure something is covering him.
