So ds didn't like being swaddled very much so we weren't aggressive about it after week 2. We coslept his first month on the couch. He slept on the nb lounger (tsk tsk I know) with me dh or my mom for the first month. At six wks we transitioned him to pnp and crib sleeping and were nazis about swaddling in order to make the transition work. He was doing 6-8 hr stretches until this past wk where it's been 5-6 for his longest first stretch.

Hs great at putting himself to sleep and usually fusses when he akes up from having his arms bound. So tonight when he woke up for his nighttime feeding I put hin down w his arms unswaddled in the halo sleepsack. He's passed out! Wish us luck on this unplanned swaddle weaning.

And just a note to mamas that some babies do sleep.better unswaddled!
