Help: Woombie or Magic Sleepsuit

So LO seems to have decided the last couple nights that he's "over" the swaddle. Which stinks because we were loving our Miracle Blanket. My happy guy turning into a kicking and screaming mess for about and hr and a half as soon as I swaddled him at bedtime. Last night I took him out and tried hands free but he's so not ready for that. His hands were all over his face and he gets frustrated that way. I put him in a sleep sack swaddle and he got his hands out pretty easily.
I'm debating between the Woombie and the Magic Sleepsuit. Which do you recommend? I'd like to not have to buy both and save money, but may end up getting both. I like the Sleepsuit but not sure if it will contain those hands enough. Any advice is greatly appreciated. :)

    We've been using the Woombie since Owen was about 3 weeks old.  He's in the second size and quite frankly, I'm horrified for the day he outgrows it (which I think will be soon) (and I don't think they have a bigger one).  We were going to try going without the swaddle this weekend but he wakes himself up and makes for an unhappy house all around!

    one thing i want to mention too is that we plan to try to stop using the woombie eventually because she does sleep on her side sometimes when she's in it.

    My son hates the woombie. There is too much give in the chest and he can get his arms to the top which he hates because he cant get them in his mouth. 

    So far he likes the sleepsuit. We have only been using it for naps though. Going slow since we are also sleeping in the crib for the first time too.

    I worry that this will happen with my guy too. He wants to get those hands to his face. Thanks!

    I bought the woombie because my LO seemed to always get out of his halo swaddle sack. I bought two, the original and the convertible one with legs. I was worried because he likes to suck on his hands alot but He seemed to do pretty good with it. He was only it it for about a week and I forgot it on a weekend trip and had to suffer with no swaddle and he did great so we haven't used it since. Good thing I got them on sale at diapers.com

    I will also add that I had a very hard time finding a small that wasnt pink. Amazon is out of stock, the company itself is out of stock. This place has yellow, small in stock.
