Chrissy - As far as I`m aware (someone correct me if I`m wrong) it`s recommended that newborn babies be swaddled for the first 6 weeks.

With Matthew, he was a horror, started kicking of blankets from 5 weeks so he was no longer swaddled from this stage and it`s only been in the last 4 weeks (since Matthew was 11 months) that we`ve started using grobags/sleeping bags and it`s the best thing as Matthew is now sleeping 10 - 12 hours a night :shock: before this I was up to him at least once, often twice if not 3 or 4 times a night.

With this baby I`ll be swaddling from newborn but as soon as he is like his big brother and starts kicking the blankets off he`ll go into a grobag.
