To keep putting the duvet back over dd when she repeatedly kicks it off.

[StrongTeaHotShower]

Dd is 3 this month and in a 'big girl' bed complete with a proper duvet.
She kicks it off repeatedly in her sleep and doesn't seem bothered or cold but I have to cover her over with it. I just can't leave her be. It's 22 degrees in her room tonight so not chilly but I couldn't sleep in that temp without being wrapped in a duvet.
Is she just too warm?

[Soubriquet]

Leave her be

If she was cold she wouldn't sleep

My dd is seen sleeping on top of her duvet at times

She's warm enough

[Penfold007]

Why do you 'have' to cover her? If she is sleeping through leave her. Maybe the duvet is too warm.

[memyselfandaye]

My 5yr old does this too, that's why he wears onesies and bed socks, so at least he's covered iyswim?

[Jinglebellsandv0dka]

I have to cover dd too. It gets cold around 3-4 and I do t want her waking. What about getting a lighter tog quilt?

[StrongTeaHotShower]

I get worried in the night and still check on her as you would a newborn. I hate the thought of her being chilly.

[RandomMess]

Put her in a fleece onsie and don't bother with the duvet!

[lapsedorienteerer]

22'C is very warm for sleeping, I'd be way too hot. Ideal bedroom temperature is 16-18'C, open the window a tad and she'll happily stay under the duvet

[StrongTeaHotShower]

But then I'd worry she's too hot.

My DS has only slept with a quilt on him once! he is 2 now. When he was a baby we used the gro-bag and now he just wears fleecy sleepsuits and I put the heating on for him.
The only time he crawled under the duvet was when had scarlet fever.

[PickAChew]

Leave her too it. Even though it's October, I'm still kicking my duvet off, some nights.

[HighwayDragon1]

22 degrees is practically tropical!

[lapsedorienteerer]

Alternatively use a grobag, I swore by them when DS was younger .

[NoFuchsGiven]

If she is cold she will pull the quilt over her. Leave her be and let her have a good night's sleep without you going in and disturbing her.

[HellonHeels]

It might be different for little children but I would find 22 way too warm for sleeping comfortably.

She's at an age when she would wake up if she got too cold isn't she?

[KayTee87]

22 degrees is roasting!! 16-18 is good for a bedroom, I prefer 16 when under a duvet.

[jbee1979]

FTM here, any of the fleece onesies I've seen have a "warning" they're for lounging, not for sleeping in, due to the risk of overheating. Are there safe brands or are the manufacturers just covering themselves?

[Lunde]

I had a "helicopter" baby that wriggled around the cot so I got her a fleece sleepsuit/carsuit/pramsuit so that she slept wearing her blanket. They also worked well when she slept outside in her pram in minus 20C

[KayTee87]

I'm sure from the age of 2 children can regulate their body temperatures like an adult can and also is big enough to pull duvet over if too cold and presumably kick it off when too hot like she has been. Try not to worry about her temperature too much op.

[StrongTeaHotShower]

I can't get it cooler. Our home is always roasting. That's with the window open.

When she was little I was obsessed with the bloody grow clock glaring red at me like saurons eye.

[StrongTeaHotShower]

Grow egg even!

[KayTee87]

I'd be too hot even sitting in light clothing in 22 degrees if I'm honest op so I would defo leave her duvet off once she's kicked it off if you can't get her room cooler.

[HellonHeels]

Let her kick the duvet off then if it's consistently warm? Is it just that she looks sort of vulnerable with no duvet? If it's that she could be better with just a sheet as a cover.

[StrongTeaHotShower]

Yes, I think that's what it is. I just want to see her all safe and snugly.

[NoFuchsGiven]

If your home is always roasting and you struggle to keep it cool, why on earth are you constantly covering your 3 year old with a quilt?

[Trills]

She's big enough to grab it and pull it up again if she feels cold.

Stop going in there and looking.
