Xander sleeps in just footed pjs! I sort of attempt to swaddle his lower half, but last night he was just squirming around before he fell asleep and undid his blankets. He slept just fine in the footed pjs and nothing else!

I like the sleep sack because it's a good sleep cue for her. We can go to my SIL's or wherever and as long as she has her sleep sack on she knows it's time to nap. I also like that on a warm night I can just leave her in a diaper or a onsie and she's still covered. Whatever works for you though - it's certainly not necessary!

@aprk: I wouldn't think it is too late. Try it and see how he does.

when we first ditched the swaddle, we used a sleepsack for a couple of reasons--first, it was winter and i felt like he needed another layer, and second, it was a step in the sleeptime routine. however when it got warm enough, i stopped using the sleepsack and his sleep didn't change (i'm not saying he was a good sleeper, i'm just saying it didn't change), so it's not like the absence of that sleep cue messed things up.

@aprk: I don't think it's too late at all. He'll probably hardly notice because he'll still have his arms and legs unrestrained. We have some light cotton ones for summer. Not at all trying to advertise but I was noticing last night that someone is selling the one that we have on the HB classifieds! Maybe a good way to get one cheap in case your LO doesn't take to it

@aprk: I definitely don't think it's too late. We still use sleep sacks and LO is 8.5 months. He sees it as a sleep cue as well, and use the light cotton ones for the summer as well.

He sleeps in either a warm sleeper or something lighter with a sleep sack. Once it warms up we will probably ditch the sack. His sleep stays the same(not necessarily good) whichever way he is put to bed.
