Help, my baby's bustin' out of the swaddle!

My son cannot sleep for more than 30 minutes without being swaddled (unless he's being held, of course!) He's 4 monthsold today and I know I should be weaning him, especially since he's outgrowing the swaddle but is there any alternative? Other than the magic sleep suit? I should add he's only rolled over once. I feel like he still needs to be wrapped tightly. I would appreciate any suggestions.

    Thanks for the halo rec. Unfortunately I'm unable to find a swaddle one in large. My son is 18+ pounds.

    I use the large swaddleme's and the Houdini wrap. She's 4 months and I'm dreading a no swaddle night.

    He loves his swaddle me but the Large is getting really small. How big are your babies currently?

    I would just go with the Aden and a aid blankets and do a self swaddle if he is too big for the swaddle me? M is close to too big as well, even for the large. Now that I leave one arm out though it seems to fit better? And honestly hasn't disrupted sleep that much (probably because the 4 month regression is so bad it couldn't get worse :) )

    Editing is too difficult but obviously that should said Aden and anais!

    She's about 14/15 lbs. the problem you'll have with the Houdini swaddle is that you're adding another blanket inside the swaddleme. So if it's already snug it might not work :/
