This is not to say that I never swaddle babies, and sometimes if mom has
relatively large breasts, we trap the babies lower arm in mom's cleavage
to keep it out of the way. Just most of the time, I find that the above
works and I don't have to swaddle or stress about the hands.

Thank you for this bit of information. I have always wondered at the poor
babe that flails his hands around wondering how to best cope with those hands.
I will try your technique and see how it goes.
