From Baby to Toddler
baby is out of the swaddle
AmandaGuest ·
Hi everyone,
I have a son who is almost six weeks old and has been quite strong in his arms and legs since day 1.
On the day he was born, he started rolling from his back to his tummy.
Because of all his busy movements, he keeps himself awake a lot, so we decided to swaddle him with good results. Finally, he sleeps reasonably well at night, but for the past two days, he’s managed to free himself from the blanket and climb out.
It’s one of those pre-made swaddle blankets.
Any tips?? Because now my little guy isn’t sleeping well again!

Unfortunately not, but I do know the problem. My daughter had to be swaddled because of her premature birth, but once she started wriggling out of it, I stopped swaddling her, and apparently she didn't really need it anymore.
Does your little one still need to be swaddled?
Maybe try a different sleeping position with something against him so he doesn't feel alone?
I wasn't allowed to let my daughter sleep in her crib but had to use a baby carrier so it was cozier for her.
Hopefully you'll find a solution soon so your little man can fall asleep comfortably again.
