Unswaddled and Unhinged


My baby has been sleeping horribly lately.  I woke up on Wednesday morning exhausted and ready for a change.  I decided to unswaddle him for his naps COLD TURKEY.  And now?  I feel like the world's biggest failure, because I cannot get my baby to nap.  He will go to sleep easily, but he wakes up during the transfer from arms to crib EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.  It has to get better - right?  I know that I've done this before, but for the life of me I cannot remember how I made it happen.  Let's look at how cute he is, so that I have motivation to keep trying...

Look at that chubby face!  He is so fun to nibble and kiss and squeeze!  I guess we'll keep him;)

Question: Why are you UN-swaddling him...iS it so he naps less during the day and sleep more at night?

Good luck,,, he is ADORABLE.. im sure you spend all day cuddling him. God bless.
