Wow!!! Swaddling really does work!!

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
I swore off sleep books after my last DD, but DH bought me the Happiest Baby on the Block--he's really onto something with that book!!

My 4 week old was sleeping a 2-3 hour block and then waking every 30-60 minutes for the rest of the night. Even though I kept telling myself it would pass, it was starting to really wear me out and it had only been a month.

So, then someone gave us a Miracle Blanket, we started swaddling and shussshing DD to sleep at those 30 minute wake-ups. Since then, those 30 minute wake-ups have turned into 4 hour blocks of sleep!!! Unbelievable!!

I just had to share...I'm still in shock!

Happiest Baby was a life saver for us. It was the only parenting "thing" we bought before baby was born. DS was/is high needs and I think HB saved us from hours and hours and hours of crying. He's never been a great sleeper but for pacification, HB worked a treat.
