Sleeping baby

I have been swaddling my son since birth, once he outgrew his swaddle, i got him the 50/50 swaddle transition sleep outfit. I honestly wasnt really trying to transition him to arms free like the suit is meant for because he has been going through sleep regression and i was afraid to lose even more sleep if i set his arms free. Well Wednesday night was the worst night we have ever had with him basically up all night. Early in the morning, i finally took him out of his sleepsuit because i figured we werent going to get any more sleep but ironically thats when he finally went to sleep.

Last night i figured i would just bite the bullet since it really couldnt get any worse than the previous night so i simply put my son in a footsy pj onsie and i fed him and layed him down in his crib asleep at 830pm. I figured it was only a matter of time before he woke up but nope, he slept clear up until 4am at which point i nursed him and he went right back to sleep in his crib. He didn't wake up until about 830am. Thats 12 hours with only nursing one time! To be honest, i still woke up a few time throughout the night to check on him because i was worried he was sleeping so much.

Anyway all of this is to say that if any of you ladies are having a hard time at night and youre still swaddling or using some other transion product, try going without it for a night and it might just be the solution you are looking for.
