Just as the title says! My baby was born in October it's suddenly getting warmer this week. Ive only got snow suits and fur jacket so ordered a fleece jacket from h&m for her. What clothing would you put your baby in weather 16-20 degrees? UK has such unpredictable weather so I don't want her to be too cold but I don't want to overheat her either.

What your wearing plus one layer is general rule of thumb

Yes one more layer than you.

So if you're wearing t-shirt, cardigan and coat I'd put baby in a vest, then sleepsuit or dress or top/trousers plus cardi and coat.

If she's still little enough to be in a pram a blanket is helpful as well. You can feel her cheeks or the back of her neck and take blanket on and off as necessary.

In Germany they all wear little cotton hats at this temperature! I don't personally bother with a hat unless it's much colder.

Thanks everyone! The sudden warm temperature just threw me off when I'm so used to the cold and snow 🙈 just now dh got her in sweats and a jumper which I'll probably change into leggings and dress so she can wear a hoody and have a blanket in her pram too.
