He can kick kick kick and we also leave one arm out </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/swaddle-worries#post-599044 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 08:02:14 +0000 T.H.O.U. 599044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree, we put it tight on the arms, but never even folded up the legs/hips so she had plenty of room to kick. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/swaddle-worries#post-599013 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 07:27:48 +0000 travelgirl1 599013@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@coacheswife123: my daughter has hip dysplasia and her surgeon I'd very against swaddling anything but the arms. We use Halo swaddle sleepsacks as they're super loose around the body but great on the arms. I know what you mean about feeling bad, I do too but it sure helps her sleep and she always busts out of it anyway, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/swaddle-worries#post-598966 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 04:49:04 +0000 pl0508 598966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HabesBabe: only 5 weeks ! His hips are loose but boy those arms are tight ! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/swaddle-worries#post-598963 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 04:29:06 +0000 immabeetoo 598963@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It drove my Inlaws nuts I think haha.

I'm not looking forward to swaddle weaning, because he flops all around like a crazy kid without it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/swaddle-worries#post-598856 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 23:24:46 +0000 HabesBabe 598856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How old is your LO? We swaddled C really tight (the hubs did it a lot tighter than I did), but it really calmed her down. As long as your LO's hips aren't restrained, I think you're fine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/swaddle-worries#post-598814 Wed, 27 Feb 2013 22:47:11 +0000 pl0508 598814@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometimes I worry about swaddling my LO.bit definitely helps him sleep but sometimes he just looks soooo restricted it makes me sad and worried! Doesn't seem to bother him though. </p> <p>Anyone else ?? </p>
