Weaning from magic sleepsuit?

So DD has been using her magic sleepsuit since she was 4 months. I am thinking of starting to wean her from it and just going to a sleepsack. Just wondering if anyone has done this and if so, how long did it take for them to sleep fine without it? Also, did you transition to a sleepsack or do you just put them in the crib with a blanket? I'm kind of paranoid of putting a blanket in the crib and so that is why I want to put her in a sleepsack but if I do this, will I also have to wean from the sleepsack afterwards?

Re: Weaning from magic sleepsuit?

  • We are going to try to start today.  He has started rolling over onto his belly in it and I dont' think he can get himself back over so it scares me a little.  I plan to start with his naps and put him in a sleepsack instead.  I'm a little nervous that it's going to be an epic FAIL but we'll just have to wait and see.  GL!!

    I'm a bit scared too! Well glad to see we'll be doing this together! lol Let's hope we both have a good experience with it!

  • I didn't use the sleepsuit but I did swaddle arms out until LO was 5 1/2 months old.  I transitioned him to a sleepssack and used that for a couple of weeks.  Then I transititioned him to just a blanket.  The blanket I use is a knitted blanket with lots of holes in it.  LO sleeps great.

    OP- he's currently down for his 1st nap in the sleep sack.  It was no big deal getting him down but I'm not sure how long he'll stay that way.  He usually sleeps an hour+ so we'll see.....

    Thanks! I tried to get him to smile, but every time he smiled he tilted his head back and the hat fell off.  Oh well...

    I wish that would have been the case with DD. I tried for an hour to put her down for her morning nap and she fell asleep for a few minutes and then woke up by her arm reflexes and then was wide awake! I'll see how she does for her next nap and might rethink weaning her off right away since it looks like she might not be ready yet... So far no magic sleepsuit, means no napping!

  • DS rolls over in his sleepsuit, but I'm still keeping him in it. He STTN so why mess with a good thing? He can't roll back over but gets super pissed when it happens. I am soooo not looking forward to weaning from it, so I try not to think about it and instead just enjoy the sleep.
