Crib Transition from RnP and Losing Swaddle

in Babies: 3 - 6 Months
DD is 4 months and sleeps at night and naps in Rock n Play swaddled.  She loves to be swaddled and her startle reflex appears to still be strong.  Since she is starting daycare in 6 weeks I would like to transition her to crib and lose the swaddle.  She will be expected to nap in a crib at daycare. Any tips for the transition? Should I first lose the swaddle and have her sleep in RnP? And then transition to crib? Just trying To figure out the best order to do this without driving myself insane ;-) She currently sleeps 12 hrs at night so I'm hesitant to make any change, but necessary..

    I would get yourself a Merlin's magic sleep suit. They're really magic. Maybe try naps in the crib and see how that goes before nighttime sleep is interrupted.

    with both my girls... we first transitioned them from the RNP to the crib.  Once they were adjusted, we unswaddled one arm for a few night, then two arms, then no swaddle.  They did fine and continued to sleep well.  Good luck!

    I just successfully transferred my LO from RnP to crib but no swaddle, she has a huge hand fixation since birth so swaddling wasn't gunna fly. My advice start naps on your bed or crib. I have to lay with my LO to get her to nap so she naps on
