But maybe their definition of "swaddle" = "sleep sack". They let us use sleep sacks until she could pull to stand. Then they deemed them unsafe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-867066 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 08:50:32 +0000 autumnlove 867066@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our daycare doesn't swaddle, </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-867057 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 08:47:52 +0000 BlueWolverine 867057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The first day care we looked at said they couldn't swaddle due to state regulations. The day care we are at now swaddles her for naps. One of them is wrong. In any case, her day care naps were crap until they started swaddling her. We're starting to swaddle wean (one arm out at night), so she'll have to do it soon at day care as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-867054 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 08:46:16 +0000 lilyann 867054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our daycare only swaddled their arms, they looked like they were all wearing straight jackets! I hope your little boys sleep isn't affected! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-867036 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 08:37:32 +0000 DillonLion 867036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>State law prohibits swaddling. Luckily she napped without it and we just swaddled at night until we weaned from it a couple of months later. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-867025 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 08:34:24 +0000 JoyfulKiwi 867025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our daycare officially couldn't bind arms, but I've seen some of the really littlest swaddled up (although they weren't in their cribs). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-866946 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 08:05:26 +0000 LuLu Mom 866946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never swaddled, she didn't like it, but our daycare would only allow sacks not blankets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-866940 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 08:03:36 +0000 MamaMoose 866940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours won't use swaddles or sleep sacks! State regulation. I was suuuuuuper stressed about this (like many a crying fit about it). But guess what? LO adjusted fine! The first week was a little rough but she learned to nap in the swing or the bouncer and eventually transitioned to her crib with no swaddle and now she does great sleeping at school. I promise it won't be as horrible as you think it will be. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-866936 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 08:01:59 +0000 LemonLong 866936@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ours said it was a state reg, but they did allow sleep sacks. It wasn't a big deal for us, since we only swaddled at night nd not for naps anyways. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-866926 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 07:59:41 +0000 T.H.O.U. 866926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree, ours had a rule they couldn't use blankets even for swaddling. But I did get a Halo sleep sack with a swaddle and they were able to use that. </p> <p>Maybe ask for clarification and see if they would use one of those? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-866909 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 07:50:11 +0000 littlek 866909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We never really swaddled, so it wasn't an issue with us.<br /> Can you bring in a sleep sack? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-866898 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 07:44:29 +0000 mrs. wagon 866898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>oh noo... well at least they will save you the task of swaddle weaning if they can't swaddle?? :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-866896 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 07:43:15 +0000 regberadaisy 866896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I believe they did offer it even though LO was never swaddled. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-866895 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 07:42:32 +0000 kiddosc 866895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our daycare couldn't swaddle with a blanket but they can with a sleepsack or swaddleme. It was state regulation that they couldn't use a blanket. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-866893 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 07:40:55 +0000 Honeybee 866893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When my kids were in daycare, they were still swaddling a two year old who had a hard time sleeping without it. They used to wrap him up in the big sheet and rock him to sleep. :) It was pretty funny.</p> <p>Sorry your daycare doesn't swaddle. I bet your boys adjust to it very quickly, though. Babies are so flexible! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-866892 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 07:40:15 +0000 pelikila 866892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Absolutely our day care swaddled. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-866890 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 07:40:11 +0000 Mrsbells 866890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our daycare doesnt swaddle but you can take in a sleep sack like wombie which gives the same effect </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/day-care-wont-swaddle#post-866888 Wed, 19 Jun 2013 07:38:13 +0000 Mrs. Blue 866888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our daycare teacher just told us they are not allowed to bind the arms down, so they can't swaddle unless they leave both arms out. This is the worst news for me as far as baby sleep goes, and at least my babies are only a month or so away from swaddle weaning. </p> <p>She wasn't sure of it was a state or corporate requirement, but if it's a corporate thing, I am going to have to say something. </p> <p>Does your day care swaddle? </p>
