Where is Isla?

Peekaboo!

Where did she go?

The crucifix pose!

Isla has been swaddled since birth to help her sleep. Now that she is becoming more mobile we are trying to wean her off the swaddle... with some difficulty! We have tried pretty much everything books & experts have recommended. We tried one arm out, one arm swaddled - only to wake up the next morning to scratches & cuts all down one side of her head from her scratching all night! We finally decided to just go 'cold turkey' and have been putting her to sleep without any swaddle. It's taking a while for her to get used to having her arms free... which leads to some really funny poses! She's waking up more during the night but we'll persevere and hopefully she'll get the hang of it quickly!

  1. Those are some serious funny pictures! Reminds me of the funny pictures of Micah sleeping - although I think he was a bit older than Isla.
    Good on you for persevering...that's what parenthood is like eh? xx
