Please help, does anyone know of either a transition swaddle or sleep bag or ANYTHING (other than the miracle swaddle) that my baby can sleep in so that she can't touch her face? Thanks 😊

I’m not sure if such a thing exists but have you tried a grobag? They come with poppers on the arms so you can still swaddle if you want to. If the arms have to be out, you could use a long sleeve body suit with mitts on the end. M&S sell them with built in mitts

We used Gro-swaddle first then Gro-bag. How old is she?

Thank you for the suggestion but unfortunately my baby will wriggle her arms too much and get them out 😂😂

@TooMinty coming up to 6 months. If she can touch her face then she knocks her dummy out and she wakes. I feel like we've tried everything!

Oh, too big for swaddling really then. Can she get dummy back in by herself? There's a comfort blanket thing with a rabbit on it that you clip dummy onto. Can't remember what it's called though...

@TooMinty she's swaddled now and she needs to not be. That's our problem! Thank you, I've just looked on amazon.

Hope you found one despite my rubbish description 😂
I can picture it but not remember it's name!
