Active sleep
Any tips on how to get my little one to stop waking himself up in active sleep, he’s exhausted bless him but keeps waking himself up 😅🤦🏼♀️
Some nights he’s not so bad, others like tonight I’ve had to go up to get him back to sleep 3 times as he’s woke himself up in active sleep 🙈 and it’s mainly his arms.
We stopped using a swaddle ages ago because he hated it.. any tips? xx

So I put my lb down on his side with something behind him to stop him rolling. Then 15 ish mins later move to his back. We also used to gently cross his arms over his chest till he seemed still if that makes sense
So my LO didn’t like the love dream one at first absolutely hated it and now likes being swaddled in a wrap type of swaddle. He sleeps through the night has done for couple weeks and is 12 weeks Wednesday. I have tried to put him in other sleep bags etc which have arms out and he’ll wake all night. Im not doing anything special just the arms need holding down 🤣

Maybe not the best tip but my lb hated swaddles, including the love to dream, but being at my wits end I’ve tried the love to dream again and he’s fine in it. I’m yet to have him sleep in his next to me for more than a couple hours but thats because he has tummy issues that were working through. You could also try swaddling with one arm out.
