have you tried a bigger wrap? I know i did this as mine got older and it seemed to help but mine loved their arms like free but folded i guess elbows down hands up if that makes sense.

Is he over tired when you try get him to sleep? Its so hard when they do this i am hoping i dont have to go through this thank god no dummy here yet but not holding my breath yet.

Do you rock him or does he self settle? Just trying to think what might help but easier if you tell me how he goes to sleep first :D

he self settles, I usually wrap im and put him to bed as soon as he shows tired signs, I leave him in his cot wide awake and he puts himself to sleep. Now, I'm just lost. He's finally asleep now, I ended up feeding him again an holding him for a little while before putting him in the rocker with his muslin wrap lightly covering his arms, I guess he just got too tired to keep fighting it.
