My son was swaddled until about 5 months. I always used the Miracle Blanket and he had a pretty hard time getting out of that even though he was a big boy. You could try doing the double swaddle with 2 swaddle blankets which is basically a version of the Miracle Blanket. I know there are some videos on YouTube about it.

Swaddled until 6.5 months. We had to start double swaddling to prevent the Houdini moves that our son did. We used A+A blankets, no jammies, just a diaper so he didn't overheat.

DS is almost 5m and we still swaddle for naps and nighttime. I tried not swaddling last night and he kept himself awake.

3 months, we started out by putting her in the sleep sack and just swaddling her arms (fold a blanket in fourths, lay it under her, take one side and wrap it over her arm to create a sleeve and tuck it under her body, repeat on other side). After a few days of that, we lost the arm swaddle altogether. We had two nights of bad sleep and then she was back to sleeping through the night.

This past week at 2 months. He was busting out of everything and rolled once. I figured we had to at some point so why buy new things that we wouldn't be able to use. His sleep went back to the way it was after 1 night of fuss; it's a little harder to put him down for naps but nothing too terrible.

4.5 months. She was regularly busting out of the MB (which we love!) by 3.5 months, so we used a Woombie until she started busting out of it.

3.5 months. We swaddled with one arm out for a few days and then went swaddle free.

We tried at 3 months and 4 months to swaddle wean and it didn't work. At 5 months he started rolling over while sleeping and getting stuck so we went cold turkey
