LO is 11 weeks/6 weeks adjusted. We started a bedtime routine last week which includes bath, lotion, tummy massage, pjs, swaddle, white noise machine, and 15 mins of lullaby music/rocking to sleep. He is still fighting bedtime, and he has always hated his swaddle (but cant sleep w/o it yet).

At what point did your LO "understand" that it was bedtime based on your routine? I read that at some point this routine will trigger his sleepy cues... and once this is established, can anyone else besides you or your SO handle bedtime? What if someone is babysitting, for example.
