We still swaddle. DS is sleeping 8+ hours night. I don't want to mess with it. I do de-swaddle him when I bring him to bed to sleep with me for a few more hours.
I stopped when LO was 3 weeks old and kept breaking free. Less than a week ago I started up again, and he is sleeping a ton better because of it.... although sometimes it still looks like he is trying to break out of a straight jacket.
This. I don't know when we'll be able to quit. I didn't swaddle DS very long at all because he always broke free, but this time around I have crazy swaddling skills!! She sleeps about 10 hours after her initial struggle.
Re: have you stopped swaddling?
I thought the same thing (itty bitty); we dont swaddle much any more, but when we do, we leave her arms out.
