Anyone’s baby getting cold at night when following guidance?

[Al991]

I am a die hard safe sleep advocate/obsessive and I follow the temperature guides when dressing my baby for the night, but she gets cold when I do this and it makes her cry a lot. I feel mean.

The best sleep we’ve all ever had was during the heatwave last week when it was 28C in our room and she was finally able to sleep 🤷🏼‍♀️

I am obviously not asking if I should ignore the advice - I know I need to follow it. But it’s a right pain… does anyone else have a baby that runs cold??

Why are you not heating the room? That's too cold no matter what she's wearing.

Both of my DCs run cold like me so I always went one higher than the charts recommend.

I think the important thing is to check their neck to see. Warm and damp then too hot. Cold and dry maybe add another layer.

My kids have always ran colder than the guidelines. I’ve always given them an extra layer of clothes and an extra blanket above what is suggested.
