Having a dense moment: what clothing with a Grobag?

[ManchesterMummy]

I know, done a million times I'm sure, but have lost all abilities to search properly this morning!

I know the packet says what to wear, but we don't have any pyjamas and neither can I find any in DD's size (she's 10 weeks and average). So, my question is this: with a 2.5 tog grobag, would a sleepsuit be okay? Or do I go for long-sleeved vest instead and if she's cold opt for sleepsuit? Room temp is between 17-20C and it's blinking freezing out there!

All advice greatly appreciated: she's learned that when she wiggles, she gets cold, realises then that she's wet and hungry and then cries (she's been sleeping from 11-6 for a few weeks, so this new development is not quite appreciated!).

Thanks

Short-sleeved bodysuit plus long-sleeved sleepsuit. Socks over that if her feet are particularly cold.

I put DS in a short sleeved vest and long sleeved babygrow. Or just a long sleeved vest if it's a bit warm in the room.

11-6? Lucky you!

I depends on the child a bit - my DS gets hot quite easily so I put a sleepsuit and vest under his 2.5 tog growbag - and the room temperature is about 13 degrees (I wish our house was warmer!!). But normally they can wear a sleepsuit and vest under a growbag if the room is about 18 degrees.

DH is paranoid about her being too cold; I am paranoid about her being too hot. Will maybe go for long-sleeved vest tonight and see how we go as the heating's on until quite late.

ItCameUponAMidnightClara - don't know how we did that! Apparently I was the same when I was a baby. Hopefully that's the only thing she's inherited from me!

DS has vest plus sleepsuit

If your nursery is about 17 - 20 degrees, which is the same as mine, I have always put my dd in a long-sleeved bodysuit with her legs bare in a 2.5 tog. If it is a particularly cold night I put her in an all-in-one bodysuit.
I absolutely love my grobags and couldn't live without them. I put my dd's good sleeping (7 to 7 or later) down in part to having used a grobag from 10 weeks.

I always went for shortsleeved vest plus long-sleeved all-in-one sleepsuit.

I also go for a short sleved vest and a long sleeved bodysuit.
If I think it's a bit chilly I would put on a long sleeved vest. Whe I have been to get DD in the morning she is never seems to be too hot

DD wears a short sleeved vest plus pyjamas (or sleepsuit with feet on colder nights).

ds2s room is about 19-21 deg and he is in 2.5 gro bag, short sl vest and PJ top and is toasty - socks too but he usually kicks them off

I have always put DS in a long-sleeved babygro (no vest on) and varied the tog of the grobag (from October-May ish, he has a 2.5 tog and June - September, a 1.0 tog one).

the sleeping is a myth LOL
I wish it wasn't
that said ds2 wakes less than if he is not in a grobag but still too much
