My baby girl was born a little early, she sometimes has hypertonia, plus the Moro reflex is well pronounced, sometimes she scares herself in her sleep. That's why I swaddle her, I chose muslin swaddles – they allow her to move a bit, rather than being completely stiff. I also swaddled my older daughter, but at two months she refused it and started sleeping normally. Now I want to wean my younger one from swaddling too and give her more freedom of movement. How long did you swaddle for, and at what time of day?
Hey ladies, today at rounds they told me I'm scheduled for a C-section on Wednesday, which will be 3…

I swaddled a couple of times at the hospital and tried at home, but she'd unwrap herself, so I didn't see the point later on, and she slept well. See what works for your baby. Maybe try gradually swaddling without using your hands, and see how your baby reacts.

My older one was swaddled for a long time. I don't remember when it started. When did you start? Yours is due on time, right? I just missed September a little....

I swaddled her completely for the first 1-1.5 months. Then I started freeing her arms, then just her legs. By month 4, I only swaddled her legs for sleep; otherwise, she'd hang out in onesies :) Generally, I watched the baby—if she slept and fell asleep normally without a swaddle, that was fine. But there were some nervous days when I saw her hands and feet were 'bothering' or 'overstimulating' her, so I'd swaddle her loosely and then 'loosen' the swaddle once she was asleep so she could move around while dreaming.

I swaddled my son until about 4-5 months old, fully. Then, until 1.5 years old, I swaddled him almost constantly. After that, I let him move more freely, mostly swaddling him for sleep. He slept wonderfully and wasn't fussy. For the first 2 months, he woke up to eat, but after that, he slept for 6-7 hours straight! I stopped swaddling him after the sleep regression passed. I gradually phased out the swaddle, first just wrapping his legs, and then removing it completely. I plan to do the same this time!)

I didn't swaddle anyone. At the maternity hospital, they even said the sooner you give up swaddling, the sooner the tone will normalize.

Shuticova Alionka This is all temporary :) Get out of the house periodically, if possible. It will make things easier. We're off to a wicked party now)))))
