I?m due in 5 weeks and just have a few more things to sort out, one being sleeping bags. I?d like to use sleeping bags and I?ve done lots of reading but am still a bit confused as to what I need. So, I have a few questions if anyone has any advice?
First off, how soon will I be able use a sleeping bag ? has anyone used them from birth or do you generally wait for babies to be a bit bigger?
Next, what tog should I use? Our room and the baby?s room are both warmish (21 degrees plus with the window open at the mo and they were about 24 at night when it was hot a month or so ago) should I use a 1 tog bag or would 2.5 tog be ok with less clothing on the baby?
Finally, any thoughts on brands? I read somewhere that slumbersac were good and I hear lots about gro-bags? Should I only use 100% cotton bags?
Is there anything else I should be thinking about?
