woombie! contd.
aight Coco. the betz slept two nights in the woombie, and then last night i swaddled her in her blanket as we'd been doing pre-woombie (but post-womb. heheh.) i have to say she slept better last night in her blankie. here's my take on the woombie: i wish we'd started her in it when she was a newborn, because i think if she was used to sleeping in it, she'd sleep better....mostly because it is physically impossible for her to get her arms out of the woombie. she IS able to get her arms out of her blankie if she really tries, and once one of her arms is out, she absolutely will NOT sleep soundly, which means i have to get up in the night to put her pacifier in and rewrap her. long story short, i'll use the woombie with my next baby, but at this point, elizabeth prefers her blankie.

if she still likes being swaddled maybe you can put her woombie on and then swaddle her in the blankie like you normally do. we did that and it worked, the woombie kept them swaddled and the blankie makes it tighter. some nights they would get the blankie loose but their arms were still inside the woombie. i even made the blanket fold just right so that i could prop the binky so it didn't fall completely off and they could get it back in their mouth by turning their heads. that doesn't make sense... it was safe though. :)
