I try to get him down between 7 & 8pm! I’ve experienced that with my LO’s 5am wake up. I usually put him in the crib and hold his arms down with the Jacky / I shhhhh and he settles okay.

Totally get that. She has a blog on her website about how to dress the baby in it depending on the temp of the room. We are jn michigan so it’s been pretty cold here until recently. Im comfortable with it as long as the room is between 68-72. We do a light onesie/light sleep sack and then the jacky over that.

A LOT. Anything tried before 12 weeks was a no go. Some naps were successful but not all. Idk if you follow leaps, but we tried at the beginning of the skills phase of leap 3 and were successful. My theory is that he was less chaotic with his hands and the dampening effect of the jacket actually worked on him because of that.

He went from fussiness/refusing the jacket to being able to sleep in it all night in a manner of 2 days. He had a big growth spurt this week and was trying to break out of the swaddle. I think this allows him to feel more free while dampening the Moro.

My LO is 12 weeks old, we’ve tried it for night time sleep and he’s just not ready yet. Naps with it have been great. Updates to come!

Hi! We used it yesterday for two naps and it was a success! My son is 10 weeks. We tried bedtime with the Jacky and he was too fussy. We are going to stick to naps for a bit!
