Hi Suzi - We have the same jumper. Liv hasn't quite figured out how to jump in it yet, but she loves the red bird that hangs over her head!
I wanted to tell you that we decided to just go cold turkey on the swaddle and just put her in a sleep sack. Olivia actually slept pretty well last night, only getting up twice and never actually crying. Our biggest problem is that she wakes up to suck on her hands/arms. I've taken to rolling up her sleeves so she doesn't get soaked and cold!
I haven't read the Ferber book yet, but I think I get the gist of it and that's what we're trying. I'm an hour into an unswaddled nap right now and I only had to go in once to reassure her before she fell asleep. Well - she's either asleep or quietly sucking - I need to get a video monitor! I'm hopeful that we'll get through this rough patch soon!
Anyway, thanks for the advice and I'll be curious to see how Brady does. He's adorable by the way - but I'm sure you know that already...what a face!
