Does anyone use a Love to Dream sleep sack/swaddle inside their snoo?

My little one is a master at breaking out of her snoo swaddle so we are considering other options. Has anyone had success using the LTD swaddle inside of their snoo? Looking for tips or any other ideas for what works other than the Snoo’s included Velcro swaddle.

I know I've read of people doing it with that and the Halo, and just using the SNOO swaddle as a way to secure it. We didn't, whenever baby was breaking out for us, we just sized up on the SNOO sack and that fixed our issue until her startle reflex was gone and we transitioned to using the arms out option.

Yeah we are looking for any kind of alternative at this point. We feel the snoo Velcro wings are too tight on her and she can’t pass gas.

I started using the “dreamland” swaddle sleep sack. They have weighted and none weighted. They also have just a sleep sack without the swaddle insert. I purchased the weighted one baby bc it is supposed to make the baby feel like they are being held.

Feeling like a failure

Baby is 9 months old and I feel like I’m doing everything wrong. He doesn’t sleep well, never has, but I feel like it’s worse at the minute. He has never ever slept through, most he’s done is 6 hour stretch twice. Also, he is not interested in food at all despite trying and offering for the last 3 months. All babies his age seem to be eating well, yet to come across one who doesn’t.

He wakes up 5-10 times a night, normally it’s 2-4, most of the time he’ll only settle on the bottle despite me and my husband trying everything for hours. Sometimes we can rock him back to sleep but then up an hour later. At some point in night bottle won’t even settle him, he’ll only go back to sleep when in our bed. When he does wake up he’s rolling, kicking, slapping etc. he has to sleep with mittens on or he’ll pinch my eyes or scrape my gums etc.

Tried everything with his sleep but this isn’t getting better - even tried consultant but they couldn’t help.

We’ve offered him every type of food but he just throws it on the floor. When we try to offer it to him he purses lips and turns head away. Only thing he’ll eat is melty sticks. Seeing others on 3x bottles a day, my LO is on 6-7x bottles. Weve tried feed him before milk due so he’s not reliant on the bottle but it never works. Tried feeding after a feed but also doesn’t work. Tried feeding in the middle but not interested. Literally tried everything with food, not interested.

Feeling like a real failure of a mum. People saying ‘food is fun before 1’, but I’ll get to 1 and it’s going to become a real problem, which I don’t want. I’m exhausted and so upset.

Thermo flask recommendations

Hey

I’m wanting some recommendations for a flask that retains its heat well for a long period of time to help with any bottle feeds I may need to do. This isn’t so much to warm up the milk but I like to do the hot shot method with my rapid cool. What does everyone use? X

Sleeping

This is my first baby and I have no idea if this is normal or not but I've been sleeping basically all throughout the night and getting nearly 10 hours of sleep to still wake up absolutely shattered and have an hour to two hour nap at like 2 pm and then still go to bed at like 11 and sleep through the night and don't get me wrong I love the fact I'm getting in a comfortable enough position to sleep but it just seems out of the ordinary and just want to know if other people have experienced it

Naps great one day sh"t the next

Why is my baby great at self settling one day and naps really well then the next day (I've changed nothing) will moan and then cry like she doesn't know how to put herself to sleep?! It's so frustrating. I just want one good week. I do the same wake window times, wait for tired signs but then she just kicks off. Is anyone else's baby annoying? 7 months this week. Even the first.nap is just difficult. She's rubbing her eyes in the cot moaning and I just know I'll have to go in there and rock her and have her fall asleep on me. When I really don't want to. Postpartum rage anyone?

Crawling

My baby is refusing to crawl and she is 9months old. She hates being on her stomach. She also isn’t pulling herself up. I know she has arm, ab and neck strength. I don’t know what’s going on. She just throws a absolute fit.
