So proud of my little girl! Swaddle weaning...

C started rolling all over the place over the last week. She can easily roll from back to tummy, and I always said I would stop swaddling once she could do that. I was terrified to stop the swaddle, so decided to keep swaddling assuming there was no way she could roll in the swaddle. The next morning, I found her on her belly still swaddled. So, that was the end of that!

First night was not great, but not horrible. She went down in her crib at 9:30 and woke up at 3, 5:30, and 9. She usually STTN 9:30 until 7-9am, so it was very weird for her to wake up twice! Second night, she slept straight from 9:30-7.

Last night (night 3), she went down as usual and I heard her wake up at about 1am. She was definitely awake - cooing, grunting, doing her little baby talking. I was so close to getting up to nurse her back to sleep, but then she started quieting. After maybe 15 minutes of the cooing and talking, she was back asleep and slept until 9am. She put herself back to sleep, even with her arms out! I feel like that's a big accomplishment, lol. My big girl. :)

Here's hoping it continues to go well from here...

  • Awesome!

    Just a thought... we stopped swaddling Landon around 3 months too because he was becoming mobile.

    Now he's at the 4 month wakeful, so he wakes up and coos and moves around several times a night. At first I got up to feed him when he'd fuss (3 different nights), but now he just goes back to sleep.
