Hi

I'm 37+4.

I'm really worried about the heat in the upstairs of our house. I've just plugged in my Gro Egg (night light that shows temperature) and it's 25 degrees! 25!! That's with every window wide open at all times and all doors too. Obviously I'm not sleeping in this heat, I just lie there every night sweating till about 4am, but I'm much more worried about the baby when he/she arrives, it's far too hot for a baby.
So, any ideas please? Will a fan help or will it just move warm air about?
Thank you.

Don't be worrying for the baby, it's not actually too hot for a baby, babies are fine in hotter countries.

A fan and open windows and circulating air before bedtime as well should help. Also nude and no sheet on top.

Keep the loft hatch open. I was surprised at the difference it makes to our house upstairs.
