My friend Lisa (Sugarmamma) just recently purchased a preemie infant swaddle cloth to contain her little fighter Curri Bee..she said it works wonderfully.
How does she get to the feet?

How clever! I love that idea of the preemie swaddle. Do you know which type of preemie swaddle she bought? There are so very many kinds online that I'm at sea.

I use a towel with Tibbe if I have let his go over a week and have to grind a little longer and he gets restless but I would love something with velcro!!! He senses my dread of doing it and feeds off my worry that I'm going to hurt his tiny toes or pads with the grinder as his feet are so small, I have to take the protective cap off and just use the grinder directly - so I'm fairly tense, even when I deep breathe and pre-relax. The worry I could hurt him if he moves wrong is somehow still there so the towel seems to soothe him but it comes loose at times! I've used this grinder method for 4 or more years now I think it is and he's not been hurt yet but I know anything is possible and must tense up and he'll begin to squirm before I'm done.
