I don't remember exactly when...maybe around 4 months? It was when we noticed she was trying to suck her thumb. At first we started just swaddling w/o her arms, but that never stayed on very well. But, we also used a positioner for a little while after we stopped swaddling.

I'm still swaddling my 5 month old because when I try to put her to sleep without it, she wakes up every 15 minutes. So yeah, she has problems sleeping when I try to stop the swaddle.

we stopped around 3 months after finding her every morning fora week with an amr/leg free. we went cold turkey (on a friday night just in case). it's been smooth sailing, fortunately, since.
We stopped around 4 months when DD started rolling from back to front at night. I'll be honest, it wasn't fun getting her to apparently re-learn how to go to sleep, a long week or two. But as soon as she started sleeping on her belly, she also was sleeping 8 PM to 7:30 AM!!
