I'll give swaddling another go, but I tried it for about a week after we got home from the hospital and he freaked every time. At first I thought maybe I was doing it wrong, but I used to work in a daycare- I've been swaddling babies since I was 5. The weirdo just doesn't like it
:P He loves blankets during the day when he's awake- loves holding them, being draped with them- but as soon as night time hits, those things are GONE.
