Swaddle Sleeping Fiasco (lemmy.world)

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.

We liked the Nested Bean swaddles, with the arms that can be unzipped when they get older. But sometimes it takes some experimenting to determine what works best for your baby.
