Talk to Pediatrician on Swaddling For Sleep

person-avatar

Asking For Self, Female, 29 Years old, lahore

Is it true that babies do not wake up timely for feeds when swaddled. Due to swaddling they keep on sleeping and miss feeds. Is it true? Or there’s no harm in swaddling baby? Kindly guide.

Normally a new born sleep 18 hours during early days..... They need feed every 2 hours.. So if baby is sleeping wake him up and feed him every 2 hours....swaddling is a tradition in some areas... But still u need to wake up baby for feed every 2 hours

There is no harm in gentle swaddling. You can wake up in between
