Our first child was born in May, so not cold at all.
But, and this is probably a stupid question, what do I need to get for winter baby? Next one is due end of Jan, so mid-winter.
So far, I'm thinking
- nice and thick hat
- fleecy blanket/wrap thing for being out and about (like this
- lots of layers
and then I'm stuck. For example, what will I need for sleeping? Our firstborn didn't take to swaddling so was soon in a sleeping bag. But is swaddling better for winter babies, do you think? If so, what kind of blanket should I use? Just a normal cellular one? Do they need another blanket on top?
Sorry for sounding dense!
Any other tips welcome. I'm trying to use as much stuff as possible from first time round, but know that I do need to account for the seasons.
Thank you
