Sleeping Bags

[purplebiro]

Think we're going to go down the route of the baby sleeping bags/fitted sheets/blankets when needed (June baby so unlikely to need one for a bit) but two questions:
1 - What happens if poo/wee/sick gets on the bag - are they usually washable?
2 - On which note, how many would you recommend having for the first six months or so? Or at least starting off with?

We had a winter baby and used the Groswaddle by Gro company with a couple of blankets on top, our house gets down to 12/13 degrees in the winter! At about 4 months he got too big to be swaddled so we went onto Grobags 2.5 tog (get them cheap at tkmaxx). Having said that his arms are now cold at night so we have ordered a slumbersac 3.5 tog with sleeves from Amazon. Nice and cosy now

This is really helpful, thanks so much.
