Where can I buy a sleepsuit...

... that's the equivalent warmth to a sleeping bag (i.e. worn over PJs and replaces a blanket) for a 9 month old? As he's just pulling himself to standing in the cot, his sleeping bag is now a nightmare as he gets his feet tangled in it and falls over, crashing into the cot bars! And no chance of getting him to stay under a blanket! So I need some sort of thick outer sleepsuit, with feet so he can't get caught up in it, iyswim.

Primark have some lovely fleece sleepsuits in for £3.

do you put the fleece sleepsuit over a normal babygro, or just a vest, or both? I got a couple as hand me downs from my BIL but am worried that DD will overheat in them.

Depends on how warm her room is and what she sleeps under.

If she isnt going to have any blankets on her then I would say stick a bodysuit on underneath.

If shes under blankets then just go with the sleepsuit.

Nbg you are a genius... just been out to Primark and bought 2 of the fleecy suits (oh and a few other things I couldn't resist! ) DS has always been a Tesco baby so Primark babywear is a v exciting new revelation (actually much nicer, and cheaper, than Tesco). Think I will put him in a short-sleeved vest, PJs and the fleecy thing, as the material isn't as thick as the sleeping bags - though has arms so warmer in that way I suppose.

They are called walk-in sleepers BTW.

In our family they have always been called Smarts

lol
glad to be of some help

I love the one I got ds and looks so snug in it!
Luckily I bought it at the weekend and we were staying at my BIL's whose house is freezing on a night so it kept him nice and warm.

Woolworths sell fleece sleepsuits, but I bet you could get cheaper.

For me this website is the best eBay . Especially love their shipping policy?
