Swaddle me no more!
Since Micah was a newborn we have found that swaddling him before he goes to bed give us and him the max amount of sleep possible. He was a great sleeper from the start. Sleeping 8-9 hours consistently at 5 weeks old. We are very grateful for the 'swaddle me' blankets we used. I was a little worried however he was NEVER going to outgrow this stage of life. So we've been slowing trying to wean him from it. Starting with one arm out for a week, then the other arm, then his legs etc...Finally, we got him completely out of it! It took a while, but he's now gone 2 weeks without using it, and has been sleeping from 8pm-8am. The other day I got a little sentimental about it so I decided to put it on him for old time sake and you can see in the pics below at the frustration he had when he couldn't move...so he BROKE OUT of it! Sorry, buddy..your mom is a little nutty and I promise I won't ever put you back in it!
