Deswaddling success!

I'm sure you guys remember all my posts about deswaddling & the trouble we were having. Well I'm here to say, we have found success!! About 3 weeks ago we had tried both arms out & it was totally torturous (and so sad to watch her flail) & didn't work at all. But she wasn't totally happy being swaddled anymore either, so we swaddled with one arm out (the one that escaped the most) for the last 3 weeks, which went great.

And now 3 weeks later at 4 1/2 months we tried both arms out at naps for a few days, then finally tried it at night a couple nights ago, & it went off without a hitch! Wow, so different than before, I guess the timing was just right. I realize now that when they're ready, you'll know, & it will work! So to all those still dealing with this, there is hope! :)
