Newborn Moro reflex- zip up swaddling

[Gigi89x]

Hi all - i bought a zip up swaddle from love to dream and my 5 week old slept fantastically due to the moro reflex waking him up in a traditional blanket.

Since then my OH reminded me that our baby was able to turn on his side in hospital but i'm not sure if he has done it since, i don't think he has but cant be certain.

Guidance for the swaddle is to stop using if baby shows signs of rolling , should i not use the swaddle again? Is side sleeping a sign of rolling? He cant actually yet roll over onto his tummy

Any help appreciated for an anxious new mum 😰

I don’t think turning on the side counts as rolling so you should be safe for a while longer. I love Love to Dream and used the arms up swaddle until at least 3 months. If you feel your baby is starting to get close to proper rolling you can also get the ones with zip off arms from size medium onwards.
