Try her in a sleeping bag?

Why do you need to? If she sleeps well swaddled?

Am I missing something?

I had the same worry and started leaving limbs out at night. In the end (around 3.5mo) my DD decided she'd had enough of it and she was the right size to go into a sleeping bag (and beginning to outgrow the swaddle). Soldier on.
