Hell I'm 36 years old and I still suffer from it! Tounge1.gif [Damn those stairs when you are dreaming in a deep slumber. LOL]

My first one ceased doing it by about 3 months but my second one still had a heightened startle reflux up till about 8 months (corrected.)

It's supposed to vary for every baby. DS I wrapped until around 5 months and then slowly weened him off wrapping by releasing one arm at a time.
