My 3 week old is too strong for a swaddle but too new for arms out. Thoughts?
I have tried blanket swaddle, Velcro, zipper, love to dream, etc. She busts out of all of them and gets her arms caught up by her face, waking her up naturally. My first born was the same way. I did arms out sleep sack last night and she had the roughest night, translating to me too. I’m not sure what else to do given that pesky Moro reflex is around for awhile still.
I second this one. Worked well for our son as he seemed to like sleeping with his arms up and out. He’s 4.5 months now and we’ve transitioned into the Merlin sleep suit since he still likes having his arms somewhat free to hold his pacifier as he sleeps.
