Child refuse to swaddle

Hi! - My son is 2 weeks old. - He refuses to swaddle everytime we do it and cry his lungs out. Eventually we have to take him out of his swaddle. - But without swaddle, his startle reflex comes into play and he wakes up often because of the reflex. What should we do?

Good morning, It's normal for baby to dislike swaddle, Keep the clothes as per the weather, Also make it comfortable, neither too tight. You can retry after few days also. Take care.
