This thing freaks me out

I'm sure it's great because it makes swaddling so easy, but it looks like a baby straightjacket or something.

  • I see a no-armed baby with a huge rack.

  • Ryker hated that thing.

    I think that's what freaks me out about it.  It's like a baby corset or something.  That is the Jessica Rabbit of babies.

  • it reminds me of when I get all tangled up in my sheets and I start to freak out and just want to punch something but I can't because I can't free my F'in arms.  grrrrrrrr

  • PLUS- it is so form fitting...that baby looks like a total slut.

    my kids weren't into swaddling after the first few days...thank goodness. I had a hard time doing it, and it just made me crave chipotle all the time, anyway.

    Oh Edith, I don't think it's possible for me to like you more than I already do.

  • Ryker loved being swaddled but he liked it only if his arms were down at his side. Those Swaddle Me blankets were the only thing that worked. Believe it or not, the Woombie is more stretchy and less restrictive.

    And now I want chipotle, you hoarding whore.

    When I first read that he hated that thing I was all "Oh, sadface", but now I'm all "Yay! That's the one I bought you, right? right?"

    yes! Of course, now I cannot use it any longer but I loooooved it!

  • I read about the rolling thing, but I remember being super happy to find that they made those in larger sizes.

  • I never had to go a size up. And he seems to be ok unswaddled now.
  • Awesome!  Does that mean last night / the night before was better?
    image
  • yes, he is back to his old pattern of sleep. Last night was a little off though. he fell asleep at about 4:30 after i picked him up from daycare and didn't wake back up until the middle of the night. he even slept through diaper change and clothes change. This week he has mastered grabbing things, rolling both ways and finding his feet. I think he is just exhausted from it.
  • That's a busy week!  Hopefully things get back to normal for him soon (and dad comes home tomorrow right?)
    image
  • We never had a woombie. Just a miracle blanket that he hated and maggies old swaddle me's, that he loved. I think he like the flowers and butterflies pattern.
    image Ready to rumble.
  • yes, he gets home tomorrow. I am greeting him with a red bull and a cupcake at the airport.
  • Growing up is exhausting.  You must be so excited for Mr. Winged to come home.   I'm sure he'll notice a big change in the boy in just a short amount of time.
  • This is what Ethan thinks of swaddling now. He's out of it every morning when I go wake him up now. Since it doesn't seem to wake him up, we're going to try to not swaddle tonight and see what happens.

  • I would like one in adult size please.  I like to wrap myself up like a burrito at night.
