Is your baby still in a swaddle?

Worse thing we ever done, he randomly rolled so bad to stop it now his arms just thrash about at bedtime it’s a nightmare!! X

I've got him half way out, he has his left arm free. I've started doing one nap a day with no swaddle, sometimes he stays asleep when I put him down, sometimes he wakes himself up. Did the same with my daughter but she was much less flappy than her brother 🙃

Still in swaddle, today 5 months. Cannot roll yet (only starting to roll from tummy to back). He was scratching himself a lot due to eczema, so I kept the swaddle. But now I'm training to unswaddle. God, it's so hard.

I know that there’s transitional swaddles. I didn’t do that. I just wrapped him up around the waist with his hands out. After rocking him to sleep I lay him down and then I put this heavyweight dinosaur t stuff animal that I got and I lay it against him. Until he’s deep asleep. He’s going thru a sleep regression tho and waking up all times of the night so I keep him wrapped so he’s getting kind of good sleep. Since I know he sleeps better being wrapped.

we did one arm out for a week, the next week we did both arms out and then transitioned her to sleep bag - went pretty well - she still thrashes around and rubs her face but usually settles herself back to sleep

We stopped using it since she was about 2mo as she didn’t like it and after we used different swaddles we decided to try sleeping bags. She has been using them since then. 😊

We have never swaddled
