My baby straight jacket arrived and I was (you heard it "was") over the moon. Everly as I think I may have mentioned before has been breaking her swaddle at night. This has caused both of us to lose sleep. My solution was to get a SwaddleMe. I've only heard great things from others, so figured a little velcro suit might be our answer. Below was my trial run and it seemed flawless, she was grunting and wiggling doing her best to get out.
The girl turns into The Hulk at night. No kidding...green and everything...no, but really, she has the gusto to pull the wrap around part up over her and have it around her neck so her arms are out and she has this band of fabric covering her face...kind of got me worried in the middle of the night...SIDs is always on the back of my mind. The other time was her arms through the top and out. Both times as quiet as a church mouse. As for my technique...I start with those arms straight as a pin (like I reach up under the blankets to hold them in place) and pull as tight as possible. Miss Sweetness of mine...you're impossible! So...back to the basic blanket and our mad pulling of fabric around her.
