Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Thrashing in sleep

Hi,
I'm wondering at what age my LO is going to stop thrashing around in her sleep. She is 3.5 months old and stil swaddled because she really flails around. There is no way she would sleep thru that if her arms were free. She is not even close to rolling over yet as she really screams during tummy time. She has great head and trunk control, but no arm strength at all. She is about to bust out of the largest swaddleme at 15 lbs. Help!

  • We never used the swaddle things. We just use a stretchy blanket. You can swaddle her as long as she's not rolling. DD moves a lot in her sleep too and absolutely has to be swaddled if we want her to STTN. I'm actually going to move her bassinet across the bedroom because he moving wakes me all night long.

  • DS is still swaddled in the SwaddleMe, too. He will be four months next week and weighs about 20 lbs. I ordered some Woombies to try instead as he needs to be swaddled but its really starting to fight it.
