Hi all, i have been swaddling my DD since day one, she has always been a very alert baby and would only want to sleep if swaddled or in a peanut sling, i guess she likes being secure.

i swaddle her for every nap and overnite sleep, on the very rare occasion (i.e. maybe twice) she has fallen asleep in the car unswaddled but apart from that i HAVE to swaddle her or she waves her arms around and carries on.

i was wondering if its still ok for me to be swaddling her at her age, ive read up to one year old but how am i supposed to 'wean' her off being swaddled? shes getting alot wrigglier and mobile and manages to get unraveled out of the tightest of wraps, and wake herself up alot by doing it, so i would like to teach her to sleep unswaddled (at least for day naps)...do you lovely ladies have any suggestions? TIA
