Sleepsuit Issues

My 15 week daughter has been sleeping for a good 6 hours at night since she was 6 weeks old baby which is amazing.

She has been sleeping in a sleep suit without a problem.

For the last 3 nights she screamed the house down as soon as we have put her into her sleep suit and then taken a good 15-20 minutes to settle every night

Also within the last week has become obsessed with her feet and plays with them for hours every day.

After much thought, we think the reason she is hating the sleepsuit is that she cannot play with her feet when inside her sleep suit.

Does anybody have ideas to how to get over this? Is it just a phase that will pass in a couple of weeks or should we not use a sleepsuit but something else.

Any thoughts or feedback would be very welcome.

My ds didn't like having his feet in sleepsuits either, so we cut the bottom off them! Worked a treat and may be worth a try?

Either chop the feet off a few or buy a couple of footless rompers/sleepsuits.

Chances are she'll have moved on to the next phase of baffling and unreasonable demands development by next week anyway!

Aww that is very cute though, I agree just chop the feet off a couple and see of she is happier.

We have a very pretty footless sleep suit from baby gap for dd.

Sorry I have not been overly clear here. We have been putting her into a growbag and its the growbag is the reason that she cannot touch her toes.

Sorry having a bad day....

Would one option be to leave the growbag unzipped at the bottom?

You can buy sleepsuits in a variety of togs like sleeping bags. Mothercare and jojo maman bebe have them. They are for gro bag refusers.
