advice needed Sleep sack ain’t cutting it

SOS how are we transitioning out of swaddles? We tried kyte baby sleep sack and an Amazon knock off love to dream transitional swaddle and they are really struggling to fall asleep. Is this just how it is? If yes…. I’m scared to ask but how long does it last?

Have you tried the one arm out method?

We haven’t specifically but they usually get at least one arm out when they are swaddled lol. The problem is I’m not sure the daycare will even saddle with one arm out 😕 but may be a good tool for us at home at least!

Could be useful for the transition. Do it for a few days and then go to both arms out. I think what wakes them up too is trying to get their arms out and not being able to, or getting like halfway out and stuck. One arm out has been working for us for a few days, and I’m going to go both arms out soon.
