Can I swaddle my baby under the arms if he is rolling over?

My baby rolled under today, which is great, but he now will not go to sleep because he is not swaddled. I will buy a sleep sack tomorrow, but can I swaddle him with his arms out tonight?

I use Velcro swaddles if that matters.

What weird thing calms your baby down?

Regularly, my 3 month old will scream until I play Welcome to the Internet by Bo Burnham. It calms him down within seconds without fail.

Boob preference help

My 3 month old has already had a preference for my best that produces way less milk when he's trying to go to sleep or just comfort eating, but now he's refusing the best that produces more milk in favor of the other all the time. To the point that I have to pump that best because I'm afraid I'll lose my supply.

Does anyone know why this is happening and what to do? I'm worried he's not getting enough milk. He doesn't really like bottles.

I had a painful lump in my breast about a month ago that I managed to resolve, but since then, that breast has had a much lower output of milk. My LC didn't really seem to care when I brought it up. My baby is only 10 weeks old and I don't want to lose supply all together.

I try rotating breasts when I feed and I try to pump when I can. But, my kid is one of those babies that's always on the breast. But honestly he prefers the low supply side. I'm not sure what else to do.

I'm on my period. But last night when I pumped i got like 1 oz (I was not home so he hadn't eaten from it) I'm not sure if it's more when I'm not on my period, but it's still not much.

What do I do? Thank you so much.
