[quote=Anonymous]Agreed, a lot will change by then for your baby, and she'll probably be fine sleeping on her own (not being held) by then. Daycares shouldn't/won't swaddle, but they will/should use sleep sacks. They should have some on hand and if not, you should supply. Many babies adjust just fine. My baby was similar to this - wanted to be held all the time. As she got closer to 12 weeks, she was better sleeping on her own, but didn't do well unless she was in a quiet/dark room. It was very hard for her to sleep at the daycare center when we started her there, because it was light and there was so much other noise/other babies. After 2 months of her not napping there for more than 15 minutes at a time, she was coming home exhausted like a zombie and we ended up having to move her to an in home daycare, where she could sleep in a room by herself in a pack & play instead.
