When should you stop swaddling your baby? Do you wean off slowly or is there a time you just suddenly stop swaddling?

For me personally, I stopped waddling my son at about 2 weeks becos he slept better when his arms and legs are free. His startled reflexes doesn't seem to wake him up so I guess it was okay. Waddling supposingly helps with the baby the sleep better because it helps reduces the startled reflexes. But somehow my son manages to "escape" less than 10 minutes after waddling so we figured that he might as well do away with it.
