He doesn't like to be swaddled......

...which really surprises me. Is he potentially missing out on any benefits of swaddling or should I just let it be?

I couldn't figure out how to swaddle Nathan once we were home. I don't think he missed out on anything, some babies like and some don't.

My son really doesn't like it much either. He likes to move around. If we swaddle him, he works really hard to get out of it. He's a happy guy, so I don't think it's doing him any harm.

If he gets super fussy and you think it might help, you might want to try it, but since Nate slept with us almost from the get-go, we didn't really every swaddle him. SOmetimes my husband will do it, but Nate just kicks everything off. :)
