Total confusion on dressing baby at night

[ShirleyPhallus]

DD is now 3 months old with no health issues

At getting increasingly confused in how to dress her overnight. I was pretty sure a sleepsuit and vest & grobag was fine for 18-19 degrees but we have a new gro bag which has vastly different advice on the back. Pic attached. Why is this?! It is a grobag, snuggle version. Seems very light on clothes for the baby?! No sleep suits anywhere to be seen on that illustration.

Additionally, all the charts online are quite conflicting, most seem to jump from SS+vest+2.5 tog sleeping bag at 19 degrees to long sleeved vest + 1 tog sleeping bag at 20 degrees. Seems a massive disparity between 1 degree. The temperature in our bedroom massively fluctuates (in the heatwave it was 35+ degrees during the day, 25 in the evening then down to 18 at night) so I’m tying myself in knots worrying about layers + waking up 100 times a night to check she’s ok.

I think what I really need is for someone to give me a virtual slap around the chops and tell me to stop checking temperature and chuck away the scabby piece of cardboard I keep reading and go by instinct and how she feels. But that might be way too sensible.

Can anyone help?! Was anyone else this confused and obsessive about it...?

Throw away the scabby bit of cardboard and use your common sense.

Really hot like it’s been in the last week: just a nappy or nappy & short-sleeved vest

Summer warm: 1.5 tog grobag and a short-sleeved vest

Getting cooler: 2.5 tog grobag and a short or long-sleeved vest

Freezing cold: 2.5 tog grobag, short/long-sleeved vest and a sleepsuit or pyjamas

Also, if it’s quite warm when you put her to bed but had cooled down a lot by the time you go to bed, just pop a normal blanket over her. A cellular blanket is fine.

Thats what I would do too, vest & nappy, and a small cellular blanket on feet.

See you say use common sense but my opinion would be different to above...

Really hot = vest only (rare in UK)
Hot = sleepsuit only
Warm = sleepsuit & vest
Mild = sleepsuit & ss vest & bag 1tog
Cold = sleepsuit & vest & 2.5 tog bag
Freezing = sleepsuit & ls vest & socks & bag

All I am getting from that is they want you to have a 0.2tog, 1tog and 2.5tog sleeping bag. This is what I have loosely followed since my LO was born and it's worked for us.

@NutterPotter yes I hadn’t actually considered they are a business who wants you to buy several sleeping bags! That link was one I saw which has vastly different advice to my scraggy bit of cardboard
