For babies sleeping in a sleep sack...question??

missbritt431

When you put your LO in the sleep sack, when do you do it?? After their bottle when they are drowsy? Before their bottle after bath and lotion? Need some advice normally with his swaddle we would to it after his bottle when he would be out of it, but it is becoming a little bit of a struggle. We are trying a new bedtime and the sleep sack to see if it will help him better at night. Any advice would be great!!

We do it after lotion/jammies and before nursing. She usually passes out nursing.

We nurse to sleep and sleep sack goes on before nursing but after story time.

I put her in the sleepsack before we breastfeed.

We do pajamas/sleep sack, then nurse, then books, then bed.

I put DD in her sleep sack after I put on her pajamas and then she has her bottle.  I think putting it on after her bottle would make it harder for her to settle down and go to sleep.

For us, it's the last part of the pajama routine.  We'll put on a onesie, her pj's, and then her sleep sack.  Then we walk around the room and turn on the monitor, the night light and the white noise.  Finally I'll sit down and nurse her.  

I think it's easier to do it this way because once she's done nursing, she's ready for bed and doesn't want to wast time doing anything else.  This happened with the swaddle too.  GL!

This for us too!

We do pj's, then nurse, then sleep sack. That way he wakes up a bit after nursing so he doesn't have that sleep association (although he doesn't STTN so I'm not sure it matters anyway).

Pajamas, sleep sack, nursing, then crib.

We do bottle, diaper change, pjs, brush teeth & gums, sleepsack, story, rock until drowsy, and then bed.

We put it on after she gets her jammies on and is about to drink her last bottle of the night.

we feed him his bottle, then change him, then read a story, and rock in the chair for a bit, then he goes in his crib

The sleepsac stays in bed. So DS only goes in when we're putting him in bed and he comes out of it before he gets out of bed.

We put after we put pj's on and before nursing.
