Swaddling 3 1/2 Month Old

I've been swaddling my 3 1/2 month old in SwaddleMe blankets for naps and bedtime, and she's recently started breaking out of the swaddle at night, waking around 1 and 5 for night feedings. So, should I stop swaddling or move to a "heavy duty" swaddle blanket, like the Miracle Blanket, that she cannot break out of during the night? I would like to transition out of the swaddle soon, but I am afraid that she won't be able to fall asleep if I don't swaddle her at all. It really seems to calm her down.

What to Do with My 1 Month Old

I have a 5 week old son who doesn't like to be put down but we can't live like that. I try the play mat and he cries, I try his chair and that lasts 5 min, same as his swing. He will only go in the chair & swing when he wants to fall asleep, any awake time he likes mommy or daddy to hold him. any suggestions on what to do with my 1 month old would be great.

sleep......what Is That?

my five week old son started off life sleeping three to four hours a night. and now it seems he is only sleeping an hour and a half to two hours at a time. also, his father is not very helpful during the night time hours and is away all day, so this leaves me with an around the clock job going on two to three hours of sleep. the baby will not sleep flat on his back, which makes everything even harder. help! what can i do to help the baby sleep longer.

Need Advice on How to Get My Daughter to Sleep Somewhere Other than My Bed :(

My daughter is 9 weeks old...from the time she came home from the hospital, she has refused to sleep in her bassinet or crib. My husband and I have tried every sleep positioner, wedge, and co-sleeper invented by anyone, but she still will not sleep anywhere but in my arms or in the bed with me. I think part of the reason may be that she doesn't like sleeping on her back (she can be fast asleep and when laid on her back she wakes right up.) So, in hopes of solving that problem, we positioned her with a wedge on her side, so she couldn't roll...
