swaddling
« on: April 12, 2006, 11:56:21 am »
I need help! Sam has always been swaddled to get him to
sleep..he's always been a poor sleeper and has
terrible eczema.The trouble is he can now escape and
then wakes up yelling several times a night until
reswaddled. We've tried just leaving one arm out etc
but he won't settle as just claws and bashes at his
face even though he has socks on his hands. I'm
knackered and at my witsend..any tips on how to get
him to sleep without swaddling?

you can try the aussie swaddle - you can use a twin sheet folded or cut in half and took a few months for my dd to figure out how to get out of that one ;) she only did it a couple of times too! anyway, here is the link - worked wonders for us! good luck!
