couple questions: 1st- do you swaddle for naps too? even though it says not to swaddle for more then 10 hours a day? 2nd- at night do swaddle before or after DC's last feeding? thanks:)
DD takes her naps in the swing, and at night I feed her on one side, change her diaper one last time, swaddle her, and then nurse the other side until she falls asleep. She sleeps from about 11pm-8am.

I was just doing it at night. I wanted her to have a cue that night is different. I did swaddle DD #1 for naps - she loved being swaddled and did not have her nights and days mixed up.
I don't swaddle with the Miracle Blanket for naps. I do wrap his arms down in a regular blanket for naps to help him get to sleep, but he can pull his arms out of that when he wants to. He goes to bed at 8 pm swaddled in a regular blanket and then gets put in the Miracle Blanket after his dream feed around 11 pm.

Tales of the Wife
We swaddled for naps and bedtime from 2.5 months to 5.5 months (we didn't think she liked swaddling before 10 weeks... turns out she did!)
Totalled probably about 15-19 hours a day.
