Sleeping? Please answer!

Question

How do you all put your baby(s) to bed? What’s the routine? Do you swaddle still or just lay baby in their crib?
I’m asking because we swaddle our 14 month old and he sleeps from 8:30PM to around 9:30AM, but I was wondering if swaddling him for so long (at his age) will cause issues for him sleeping in the future? 
He doesn’t stay swaddled all night he gets out of it and is always standing by morning but I don’t wanna mess him up and am thinking about trying another way to get him to sleep if swaddling is not the best way..
EDIT: I forgot to add that I’m expecting another in June and we will be transitioning him out of the crib around December next year (I think?) so I don’t wanna mess his sleep up for when he’s in a bigger bed!!

Answer

Thank you all for your advice! We tried not swaddling him for the first time tonight and he passed right out! I feel so lucky ♥️

Have you tried a grown bag? My son sleeps in a grow bag and I think it makes him feel secure but he can still move around and stand up. We do bath around 6pm, playtime or story, bottle and he’s sleeping by 7pm. I wake him if I’m working and I let him sleep until he wakes on my day off.

Answer

You aren't supposed to swaddle after they can roll over.. 
We sleep trained ours recently so we give her a bottle around 8:20pm, get her into her pj's, lay on the floor and play a while, then at around 9:15pm she goes into her crib. We turn on her noise machine, crack her door open and turn on the bathroom light next to her room so she gets a little light but it too much. She just lays there drinking her bottle quietly till she passes out. Doesn't wake up till 9:30am

Answer

We were told to stop swaddling once he could roll over, so definitely no swaddle. But then, he HATED it after the first month or so anyway. My son has a bath, lotion, last nursing of the night, brush his teeth, book and then bed. He sleeps in his room in his crib most of the night. If he wakes up really early, I'll usually go get him and bring him in bed with me and my husband and he'll lie back down for another hour or two.

Answer

My baby didn’t like swaddling so we gave that up after the first week. He uses a sleep sack. He gets a bath or shower around 7, then we read a book and play on my bed until 7:45 when he starts telling me he’s tired. Put him in his sleep sack and put him in his bed. He sleeps until our alarm at 7am.

Answer

8:30pm bathtime
8:50pm brush teeth/brush hair/put on jammies
9:00pm she climbs into bed (she sleeps in a big girl bed so she puts herself to sleep)
