Baby's hands are cold

DS is 6 months old and lately during the night his hands are freezing. He's teething so his hands are constantly in his mouth.

I've tried scratch mitts but he pulls them off, I've tried using the built in mitts on his sleep suits but they get absolutely soaking with the amount of drool lol!

Any idea how I can warm up his wee hands during the night? He sleeps in a sleeping bag.

If he's otherwise healthy, sleeping well and his tummy feels warm I wouldn't worry about it too much. If it was bothering him, he would wake up and let you know.

This used to worry me like crazy too. I used to put thin mitts on baby’s hands… and she’d suck the mitts and her hands would feel even colder.

sorry I’m no help.

Their hands don’t need to be warm. As long as if you check the back of their neck and it’s warm then they’re fine.

As long as the rest of them is warm then it really is fine. My 9 year old has always had icy hands and feet.
