Guest guest Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 I have 9 month twins and swaddling was a life saver!! I nursed them both until just a few weeks ago and I believe what I ate played a large part in their mood. If I ate any type of " stimulant " sugar, caffeine (which I avoided as much as I could-with twins and a 5 and 6 year old I HAD to have 1 cup of coffee a day to function!) they were a little more cranky than usual. You may also want to rule out reflux.Good luck. Kelly **************Create a Home Theater Like the Pros. Watch the video on AOL Home.

Guest guest Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 Definitely.....receiving blankets are a good thing....swaddling can really help to calm some babies. Also, since you are nursing, you might think about what you are eating that might be affecting your wee one. I had to give up several foods...cabbage, broccoli and onions in the first few months with a couple of my babies. Nancy C. Modern mothers sneer at receiving blankets. They should embrace them. Many babies feel insecure and exposed if they are not wrapped and cry for hours. Others with sensitive skin can hate a draft, even if they are warm enough. Others are sensitive to cold. A wrapped baby is generally a content baby.
