Sleeping!

I never used a swaddle or swaddle bag with my first. Didn't see the need

We loved the love to dream swaddle for our first and planning to use it for our second. When he was a NB I just swaddled him normally but he hated it hence I invested in the love to dream swaddle, with his arms up he was way more comfortable...

Have just bought the newborn size and another small do have a spare in a different tog rating. You can buy them on vinted second hand hut they are still quite expensive

When I had my first the midwives just tucked blankets under the babies arms and underneath the mattress so it was secure in the hospital so we just did the same and then a sleeping bag when he was a bit bigger x

Ftm but planning on using love to dream swaddles . I got one off vinted for hospital in a 1 tog as she will likely be in it once because the hospital is so warm just for ease so I don’t need to keep asking for help from the midwives for help

Bought two off vinted, but have some cellular blankets and a higher tog sleepsack too just incase. But the sleep sack is adjustable and can be either 0-2 months or 2-6, so will get use out of it regardless x

I have the snuzbag ones I think they are worth it as it has the zipper for nappy changes instead of opening the whole thing at night plus I am don’t want to keep disturbing the baby and make them fully awake when they don’t have to be

With my first i tried normal swaddle but once we got the love to dream she slept so much better! So will be using them again and then switching to bags when she can roll ☺️

Used love to dream with my first they’re expensive but he slept well in them, until around 4 months when we had to transition out due to him rolling x

With our first we used the Tommee Tippee swaddle sacks, which have button-up arm holes to give the swaddle effect but still allowing baby to move their arms, and we'll be using the same this time as well. Then when they start to roll you can just leave the arm holes unbuttoned.
