My 4 month old has always been rocked to sleep and I've had no issue doing it until the last few weeks.
She is getting too big now; my arms are killing and she just constantly fidgets while falling asleep. I've read that this can mean she's ready to just be put down in her own space but when I've tried that (then rocking the moses basket instead) she just can't manage to settle and eventually wakes up more so we are back to square 1. She has never taken a dummy which was the game changer with my oldest daughter as she loved hers.
She sleeps in a love to dream swaddle and isn't really rolling yet - I wondered if its time to just change things up completely, we've got a bigger crib (between moses basket and cot size) as she is looking huge in the basket now and fidgets alot during the night too - constantly slamming her legs down etc and reaching the top! . but i'd be worried putting her in the crib in the swaddle in case she did roll. But it feels too soon to ditch the swaddle! Just don't know what to do for the best, just feel we are both ready to move on from what we've been doing since she was born but lost on what to try first!
