Why do I have guilt about Swaddling for naps?

Little DS is in his crib napping. He still sleeps in the bassinet at night, and I'm trying to introduce him to the crib, and the only way he'll nap in either spot is to be swaddled. I usually only swaddle him at night. During the day he naps in the bouncy, swing, boppy, etc (unswaddled).

Ugh, why do I feel bad about this!?

You are going to have enough "Mommy Guilt" over the years, this is one thing you do NOT NOT NOT have to feel guilty or bad about!

Dont feel bad I swaddled for naps until nearly 9 months old! It was the only way to get DS to nap!

If your DS is comfy and sleeping thats fine. Remember the swing, bouncy kinda cradle the baby its not the same open feeling a crib would have so by swaddling they feel craddled or like they are being hugged.
