What does your (baby) DC wear in bed?

Thats it really, looking for inspiration.

DD (5 months old) kicks her blanket off and isnt happy in a sleeping bag so shes currently going to bed in a long sleeved vest with a sleepsuit over the top. Im a bit worried she will get cold once the blanket comes off (about 10 mins after putting it on) and our heating bill is immense!!

Any suggestions are welcome Grin

Get her a fleecey sleepsuit.
I had one for dd when she was tiny as I was living in a freezing cold house at the time. She'd have a vest, a normal sleepsuit and then the fleecy one on over the top as well as a thick blanket.

Hmm I often wonder whether I've got my DS in enough bed wear as he too hates sleeping bags and blankets!!
He sleeps in a sleep suit and a fleece sleep suit but now I'm especially doubting myself due to the previous post...
He does wake several times a night (and always has)
What's the temperature in your LO's room?

I am also doubting myself BenRoo.....massively!

The monitor says her room is 21 degrees (boiler is in there) but sometimes drops to 18 by the morning. She doesnt wake up in the night - i know im very lucky - but i do and i always put the blanket back on if its off. We have a little portable radiator that comes on between 3 - 5 to make sure it doesnt get too cold.

hmmmm

Hmm wolfcub
Let's wait for a much more qualified answer then...
My DS monitor is usually 19c Blush but I zap the heating up a couple of times before my bedtime,it never gets above 21c...
Confused

DD 6mths wears vest, long sleeved baby-gro and 2.5tog sleeping bag. She sleeps on a baby sheepskin. The room temp is around 20c dropping to 18 overnight.

Could you try sleeping bags again?
