Teething Time and Becoming UNswaddled
We've been seeing a lot of this lately. Talk about putting your foot in your mouth!! LOL! I'm loving his bendy body!!We've FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINALLY worked our (meaning Preston's) way out of being swaddled!! But he still just can't be plopped down in bed with his legs flailing about, so we transitioned him to Halo Sleep Sacks. These are nifty little wearable blankets that work nicely in keep those leggies contained so Presty can get his ZZZzzzzzzs. :)
He's nicely following in his siblings good sleeping patterns. Pretty much a dream baby as far as napping goes. I can read his cues very easily and it's 1.5-2 hours after he wakes, that he's ready to go down again. Just zip him up in his "sleeping bag," lay him down awake, hand him his blankie to rub against his face (sometimes he'll even take a binky too) and out the door I go! I'd like to take at least SOME credit for my children's good sleeping habits as I try really hard to get them on a routine that keeps everyone happy. :)

Thats awesome! Bella's issue is her arms, more than her legs, so we are still swaddling. I would love to get her out of it though, as it is hard when we are at someone elses' house and it is naptime ! Give me your tips!
Wow, did all your kids get teeth that soon? Of course you get credit for good sleep habits, that normally doesn't happen all by itself!
ouch, sorry you have an early teether.
Lindsay, after 4 kids, you must know that you take credit for all the good and all the bad things you just blame on your child being strong willed. ;o)
