Hi everyone, I am a newbie.
My baby is going to be 4 months in 2days . Two weeks ago, I started transitioning him to the love and dream transitioning suit with one arm out and the other arm with wing. About the same time ,he learnt to self settle. The way he self settle is to use his wing to partially cover his face and do the sucking motion under the wing....when he is ready he then put his wing down and fall alseep.....he did the same when he sometimes wakes up from one cycle.
Within the past two weeks ,I have been trying to transition him out of the wing but failed ....I also tried to swap arm with the sleeve and the wing but nothing work. He likes the wing on his left side lol.
Last night, he cried so bad he tried to self settle, kept waving his arm towards his face and realized his 'comfort ' is gone. I tried to comfort him to sleep but he refused my help. He was too upset as being overtired . I ended up had to give him back the wing, he fell alseep pretty much right away.
I don't know what to do .....although he is not able to roll yet but the other day I noticed that he attempted to roll ( fail attempt tho) when he woke from one cycle.
Please ,does anyone have any suggestions how to transition my baby out of the wing completely ? I did order a cotton cloth comforter (still on shipping) as I think he may be able to use it as a comfort to replace the wing ( simular material to the wing) .....however, I honestly don't think this would help at this point as he hasn't fully developed the fine motor gripping skill so he wouldn't be able to master gripping the comforter and remove the comforter from his face.
I tried different brands dummies as well ,he wouldn't take it :(
I feel like he is very relaying on the wing now .....really don't know what to do ....please help
