We have that sleep suit and my baby will not go to sleep with out it she sleeps 9+ hours and doesn’t wake up for feedings she’s starting to roll on her side so I’m not sure how to transition her 😂
I used it for a week or so and it wasn’t magic for us. it did help the startled reflex though. I found extremely hard to burp her in it too. We went straight to woolino sleep sack and it has been really good.
We started the Merlin just before 5 months. My LO is not rolling yet. You can have them in it until they can roll in the suit which is harder but if they are rolling already it won't be long. It is not magic for us but it is helping. We have the opposite though, good naps and tough nights. It helps with the tough nights. He went from up every hour or so to 2-3 hour stretches so that's progress for us. He is EBF and wakes 2 or 3 times a night to feed. If you have friends who have had babies see if anyone has one still you can try 😊
It really helped with sleep but the material is pretty thick my LO overheats easily in the magic sleepsuit.
I’m not sure if they can wear that when they roll so I would look into that because if your baby is almost 5 months that means they will be rolling soon ish so it wouldn’t be worth it. I would just get a normal sleep sack
