My LO who just turned one month old recently loves to kick her legs in the air when she sleeps. Is it normal? Should I swaddle her then as I stopped swaddling after 3 weeks? Thanks!

It's actually quite normal and it can be due to a whole host of reasons like restlessness, discomfort, night terrors etc. A regular bedtime routine might help with this e.g. a bath, some milk, gentle rocking and a quiet ambience.

My baby loves doing it too! She's a little karate kid :) we let her sleep in a sleeping bag so she can kick as much as she wants in the bag ;)

It's normal but there might be a lot reason for it to happen. Well you can swaddle baby to sleep so they feel secure and warm

The average age to stop swaddling baby is around 3 or 4 months of age.
