Moro reflex

My baby is about to be 4 months and she still has the Moro reflex. Does your baby still have it? When does it go away? At night i swaddle her but in the middle of the night she wakes up bc she wants to be free hahaha so i unwrap her but then she wakes up bc of her own reflex so idk what to do.

My son still does and he is 4 months.

My daughter’s reflex is mostly gone but she’ll occasionally startle when I place her down in the bassinet (4 months old). I found that a transition swaddle such as the Halo Swaddle Sleep Sack while keeping arms free helps a ton!

Swaddling is preventing the reflex from integrating. I know it’s hard, but transitioning out of the swaddle will help it integrate.

@Leah have you used the sack or do you still swaddle her? does your baby sleep through the night?

By making her startle more during the day, you’ll help her integrate that reflex and she’ll be able to sleep better at night.
