That’s a period. You’ll be fine next week.

No creaks, pops, grunts, pulled muscles. Oh, and milk straight from the source! (But formula is good, too. Not knocking women that don't).

All my kids hated being swaddled

Imagine plugging a brain that big into a bullshit body, no wonder they cry all the time.

The baby was swaddled, so probably wasn't able to raise its arms for some time.
imabigasstree
Thats 1/2 the pimt of swaddling. Babies are bendy and can get into some really damaging position when they sleep as they start getting biger
EllenLRipley
That's the purpose, to "prevent" the moro reflex. It keeps some babies from falling asleep...

I remember the first time my oldest saw her baby sister stretch she said “she stretches like people!” We still laugh about it.

My kid is 4 months and he's turning into a solid unit. That itty bitty baby stage is so brief and you hardly remember bits of it afterwards
Yes. My lil Luna mastered crawling and is pulling herself up to stand against things already. I'm proud, but i miss the lil squishy baby

a year from now you'll be amazed she was this small

That's the strangest thing. Mine are almost a year from now old and they used to be so tiiinyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

Congratulations!
Thanks! We did a local birth center with a midwife. My wife did super well for a first timer. I got to help with the whole thing. Surreal...
That's awesome! Kids are a blast! Things to always remember: 1. YOU are the parent. Don't let them run you over. 2. Don't be afraid to do /
silly things. 3. It really and truly does fly by faster than you can imagine. Cherish every moment. Take too many photos.
Thanks for the advice. I guess a thing to add would be to admit when I’m wrong and make things right
Chambuhs
Congratulations! My little boy will be here in 8 days ?
Best wishes!

Why do they burritofy the babies
aFadingMemory
It's called swaddling. It's comforting and helps keep them from jerking themselves awake with baby reflexes.
Ok thanks
TheobromineAddict
Is swaddling still a thing?
AlceCosmico
Oh heck yes. It was the only thing that got my son to sleep at night
Carrickin
Yup. Source: my 2 week old.
Yep! It works amazingly well, I've never heard of a downside.
Derfin
Our midwife told it was often done too tight in the past and that could lead to complications. With some common sense it is safe, however.
i like some of the new swaddle blankets they came out with, helps keep you from doing it too tight or it coming apart to easily
terramarkov
Ugh not for us, our son was like houdini no matter how tightly we swaddled him. He'd scream bloody murder too...
Yup. Generally up to about 3 months. The startle reflex wakes them right up otherwise
Iloveanonymityandilovebeingnoticed
Yes, it’s comforting to most newborns as it reminds them of the safety of the womb. Also helps prevent the startle reflex waking them up.
SoggyFarts
Also, baby fingernails are sharp AF. Prevents accidental self-scratching.
yeah, trimming baby nails isnt easy when they wiggle so much!

We could never swaddle our kids. They wouldn't have it. They would fight and scream until the escaped.
DoomNet
Same here with my son. No matter the swaddling technique we used he would kick out of it.
grobesviech
A nurse at the hospital wanted to show us the benefits of swaddling but LO would have none of that ..no wonder, the way he kicked my insides
Mine won’t use these things, I have to use a large square cloth, and even then she sometimes escapes.
Never was a fan of purpose made swaddle blankets either. The standard hospital blanket they send home works great.
This isn't directed at you, but a lot of parents are afraid to go too tight when they swaddle. My wife always made me do it cuz she was.

I mean... Yeah.
spadinaaa
Hold Me. I'm a baby now as I've stopped identifying as an adult.
I... Would need to confirm the legal ramifications of this action
Lmfao. That sounded a lot more innocent in my head. But I see your point
I mean if we're talking innocence? I'm down.
Innocent enough. I'll be drinking. Lol
