Son is 6 months old. I always swaddled him for nighttime sleep. But after watching TT, I decided to stop swaddling. The result: the son wakes up about 6 times during the night, although before he woke up 2-3 times to eat and change his diaper. What do you think, is it worth continuing swaddling at least until 8 months?

We have two months, and I think at most one more month, and we need to wean off. Otherwise, it will be very difficult later.

And how do you swaddle with the arms? I really liked the swaddle cocoon, it seems loose but doesn't wake the baby with its hands.

The eldest daughter was swaddled until 9 months old, she only slept like that. At 9 months, we stopped swaddling her, and even then, she started being naughty herself, which was inconvenient😅

From mid to half a year, I used a swaddle.
Then there was July heat, and it was impossible to find such a swaddle.
And I weaned off.

I swaddled until 4 months, then gradually took out one arm, then the other, gradually weaning over a week. I can't even imagine how one can swaddle a baby at six months. My daughter is 7 months old, and she sleeps sometimes on her stomach, sometimes on one side, sometimes on the other.

Так у него стимул-реакция: запеленали надо спать.
Нет пеленания - не надо спать.
Он отвыкнет.
Можно попробовать положить в подушку по типу такой арт.на вб 167950375
Чтобы ребенок чувствовал, что по бокам его что-то держит как и пеленка)

I swaddled only for the first month, then stopped. When I swaddled, he kept trying to pull out his hands, fussed around. Without swaddling, he sleeps well at night, only wakes up to eat. Honestly, I don't understand why swaddling for so long, it seems to me that it hampers development. Now he is 3 months old. He can sleep on his side, he turns over himself as it’s comfortable for him.

Anastasiya Is development slowing down? My son is already crawling on his own at 6 months without any massages, etc..

I have my first child, so I didn't notice much of a difference. He didn't sleep well in the diaper, constantly trying to free his hands. Without the diaper, he also moves actively with his hands and feet before falling asleep, sometimes it took 40 minutes to an hour to put him to bed, or even longer. I thought it was normal) We endured it for some time, now he's 3 months old, he gets active during the day, sometimes I just put him in the crib and he falls asleep immediately.

Mariya I just assumed that this phrase had nothing to do with your son. It crawled and was wonderful) you asked a question, I expressed my opinion.
