Wrapping/swaddling & Sleep

[RhiChiChi]

I assume your DS is waking because he startles himself due to involuntary reflex babies have (they grow out of it). Have you considered doing the angel wrap? Your DS hands will be up near his face, so he can feel them & move them somewhat but should stop the startling a bit. Otherwise consider a gro bag or something similar.

It's probably nothing to do with the wrapping Just waking after 1 sleep cycle. Do you wear him at all? sometimes that helps get them through that first wakeup into a longer sleep.
