Moro reflex and sleep deprivation

I’m at the ned of my tether and feeling so depressed. My little one cannot sleep without being swaddled as she startles herself so much. She’s 10 weeks old I’m getting next to no sleep because of it and I can’t use the swaddle anymore because she is beginning to roll over. Please anyone help!

Baby sleeping bag was the go for us at this age.

Swaddling really helped us. Try the love to dream ones.

My little one was the same - try a 'zipadee zip.' They help with the moro reflex, arms are in and slightly restricted but if baby rolls they can still use their hands. A little pricey at £30 a pop but i can honestly say it's the best thing I ever bought!

I found it was a phase and passed. Sorry not really helpful.
