Swaddle

Each time that Zach takes a nap or goes to bed at night he is swaddled. Swaddled like a mummy his Granny Marsh says. It is very helpful when you have a total wiggle worm for a son. If I don't swaddle him tightly he wakes himself up by all the arm and leg movements he does. I use a 'T' shaped swaddle blanket with Velcro and when I, his mother, go to get him he looks like this:

However, when his father, the civil engineer, uses the same blanket (again, 'T' shaped with Velcro) this is what happens. We watched Zach on his monitor wiggle his one leg out and by the time we got in there both arms were out and he was working on the last leg.

  1. I love this. We also swaddled Ali. I went through both sizes (small and large). I swear that was the reason she slept through the night early on. Unfotunately, they get strong enough to totally remove the swaddle blanket completely...Hope you guys are doing well. Zach sure is cute.
