LO is 4 months old and she has slept with her arms out of her swaddle for a long time now. I continued to wrap her legs mainly so shed have a blanket. Now she has learned to bust out; I guess it's time to stop the leg wrap. Since she can't have a loose blanket should I put her in a sleep sack? Or just in her sleeper pjs?

sleep sack! both charlie and olive started sleeping in a sleep sack at 4 months. we stopped with charlie shortly after he turned 2, but i wish he were still in a sleep sack because he always kicks off his blanket!

I have LO in a HALO sleep sack (also four months) with her belly wrapped, arms free, and legs snug inside the bottom zipper part.

My LO always hated being swaddled, so we put him in a sleep sack within the first month. He's nearly 8 months and still wears one--ours are long-sleeved fleece--mostly for warmth.

We use a sleep sack. It helps prevent his legs from getting too stuck between the bars of the crib.

We started using a convertible Woombie around 3 months old and took LO's arms out at 4 months. Now she still wears one to bed since it functions as a sleep sack and we think it made the transition from arms swaddled to arms out an easier one for her. So yes, I'd use a sleep sack, especially if she's used to her legs being swaddled.

I love sleep sacks. We make it part of our bedtime routine. He gets zipped up in his sleep sack, saline, and a pacifier before being read a few board books.

We transitioned from the swaddle to a sleep sack when DS was 4.5 months old. He still sleeps in one at 19 months. It's part of his bedtime routine and it has kept him from trying to climb out of his crib.

We love our sleep sacks, and so does DS. Keeps him cozy without overheating him.

Thanks! I'm glad the sacks are okay to use because it seems so un-cosy for her to just be in there all alone!
