So, after two nights of weird waking up times for Will (who had gone 7 nights in a row sleeping 5.5-7 hour stretches during his first sleeping period) we decided to try double swaddling him. Both nights he woke he had busted out of the swaddle - so last night, we did everything we normally do before bed and Greg wrapped him in his swaddleme blanket in nothing but his diaper. Then we took another blanket and swaddled him again. And you know what? He went 6 hours instead of 4. He didn't bust out of the swaddle either. He also didn't seem too hot or too cold when when I fed him at 3am. So...little baby, you like your swaddle. But, we have to make it so you can't get out!
And the best blankets ever? Well, they are Aden + Anais blankets. They are super soft and thin. They are large enough to do a swaddle, too. They are a bit pricey but worth every dime. We have 12 I think and I want 4 more. I'm addicted to them.
So with the two together, what do you get? A sleeping baby. And, yes. He's still in our room. Eventually he'll go to his room...maybe when he goes to kindergarten. Just kidding, G!
