Uh oh... why that posting? What's going on in your life? More sleepless nights?

Does this mean he's insisting on the swaddle? Why do you have to break him of it - is is bad to swaddle them after a certain age?

No it's not bad to swaddle him but he keeps trying to kick his legs and he is on the brink of rolling over and I don't want to take any chances of him rolling over while he is pinned up like a glo-worm and not be able to put his hand out.

And yes Val more sleepless night...but I am hoping that they are going to get better since we have been doing it for a couple of night now. Keep your fingers crossed!

Tee shirt time!!! Wear a tee shirt all day. Make sure it smells like mommy. When you tuck little man into bed tonight, take your shirt off, and cover him with it like a blanket. It will be warm, and it will smell like you. I bet he crashes out. Give it a whirl and I want a full report tomorrow. Good luck!

I might have to give that a try...I will keep you posted!
