To Swaddle or Not

We've started attempting to do a loose schedule with Drew - at least to know how long he should be sleeping during the day vs at night.  It's been fun.  He and I had a nice 3 hr long stand off yesterday.  It ended in a nice nap for him and a large Dr. Pepper for me!

We've gone back and forth or whether or not to swaddle him.  Sometimes we swaddle him and he sleeps long and hard.  Sometimes we swaddle him and he spends the whole time he's "asleep" grunting and fighting to escape and half the time he succeeds!

The last couple of days we've let him sleep on his tummy with supervision.  Naggy & Pappy bought us this Snuza Monitor and I make sure to use it if he's on his belly, plus we got the baby monitor set up.  It has two cameras, so if I put him to sleep in his bed or in the cradle that's in our room I can watch him closely and hear the Snuza alarm if it were to go off.  Drew seems to sleep sounder on his belly but I'm not ready to let him do that at night...

 

 

One thing is for sure though, when the boy goes to sleep he sleeps very soundly and waking him up to eat is nearly impossible!
