Ours is the same with his swaddle. It’s the only way we can calm him down when he’s inconsolable and he’ll be fine for a while when we lay him down. Then he struggles. Goes back to sleep. Wakes up and sees he’s still swaddled. Struggles. Repeat this until just a tiny bit of one hand is out. BAM. Instant screaming. Rewrap swaddle and repeat 🤦🏻♀️

Mine yanks it out of his mouth and then wakes himself up???
We have a new scenerio in our house rn:
*Baby offers the dog his food*
*Dog accepts the food*
Cue sobbing over the loss of his food.
*Replace food and repeat*
I’m so glad we stopped cold turkey when we started sleep training. Life is so much better not replacing it 100x a night.
