How to Use the Butterfly Cardi

1. When your baby first shows signs of wanting to roll, it's time to transition a swaddled baby to arms out sleeping for their safety. We recommend transitioning over a 10 day period to help your baby adjust.
2. Day 1 - 3 Dress your baby in the Butterfly Cardi over their arms out sleeping bag. Contain their arms within the fold-over arm pockets for all their sleeps (day and night).
3. Adjust the firmness of the Cardi by changing the press stud position. If your baby has a strong startle reflex, start with a tight fit. If your baby has a low startle reflex, start with a looser fit.
4. Day 4 - 7 After your baby is familiar with their new Butterfly Cardi, you can take one arm out of the fold-over pocket for all their sleeps.

5. Day 8 - 9 Your baby can sleep with both arms out of the fold-over pockets for all their sleeps.

6. Day 10 Your baby can sleep without the Butterfly Cardi. Your baby has transitioned to sleeping arms out, HOORAY!
