She fusses and cries a bit and usually falls asleep within 10 minutes. </p> <p>At night we use a Halo Swaddle but she almost always breaks out (always has, since day 1). She's getting harder and harder to get to sleep so I want to sleep train soon </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-training-and-swaddling#post-325241 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 18:10:00 +0000 kjn 325241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kylahnzoesmommy: We started early - 3 months. But our little guy was a Terrible sleeper and we were all going a little crazy so it was definitely time to do something about it. It's only been 2 weeks since we started sleep training and his sleep is not perfect by any means but it's so much better than it was. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-training-and-swaddling#post-325217 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 18:05:44 +0000 kylahnzoesmommy 325217@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@kjn: how old was your LO when you began sleep training? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-training-and-swaddling#post-325213 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 18:05:02 +0000 winniebee 325213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We weaned from the swaddle - one arm out - then he was rolling onto his side in his sleep so we quit cold turkey. This was right at 4 months. We haven't sleep trained per se, but I'm more comfortable letting him cry for periods of time now that he's arms out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-training-and-swaddling#post-325199 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 18:03:19 +0000 kjn 325199@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We weaned the swaddle (one arm out, then both arms out, then completely off) about 2 weeks before we started sleep training. We wanted to make sure he could self-soothe by sucking on his hands. I know people who have sleep trained with the swaddle still on, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleep-training-and-swaddling#post-325110 Thu, 04 Oct 2012 17:46:13 +0000 BeachMama 325110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When you sleep train are you swaddling? Im assuming not because how else would LO self soothe? Do you swaddle when you started putting LO down "drowsy but awake?" </p>
