Re: have you stopped swaddling?

  • No damnit... we are doomed to the damn swaddler forever.

  • I swaddle but with his arms out.  He hates having his arms in the blanket
  • 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.

  • Still swaddle...she sleeps soooo much better.  Sometimes she'll struggle at first, but then gives in a falls asleep shortly after.

  • Yep, We tried using sleep sacks and she wakes up a few times overnite.  With the swaddle she sleeps 7-8 hours

  • 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.

    I thought the same thing (itty bitty); we dont swaddle much any more, but when we do, we leave her arms out.
