What is your baby sleeping in?

There are probably a million threads on this so I apologise in advance but during this weather what is your baby sleeping in/with?

My 7 month old is currently in just a nappy and short sleeved vest. He had a sheet in there but keeps kicking it off, so probably more of a hazard than a help.

His gro egg says it is 24.1 so pretty stuffy in here even with little window open.

What is everyone else doing?

Same here!

CuteLittleToes · 17/07/2014 20:02

That is, my DS also sleeps in a sleeveless vest with thin cotton blanket. Room temperature 24-25 degrees.

Vest & sleeping bag only in this weather.

Shortie PJs when it's a little cooler.

He is a hot mess otherwise.

Just a nappy with the lowest tog sleeping bag.

Hamnvik · 17/07/2014 20:06

Short sleeved vest and 1 tog sleeping bag, its 22/23 degrees here. He won't sleep without a sleeping bag on as he flails about so much he wakes himself up. Might have to invest in a 0.5 tog sleeping bag

Every evening I find myself asking what to put her in! Her gro egg always says around 24 mark so she is in long sleeved vest with window open slightly. We put a Muslin cloth over her legs after midnight feed as it feels cooler.

My 23 month old is in just a shortsleeved vest, is so stuffy in her room although window is open and door to try and get breeze through. May put something over her later, though she always kicks off blankets so I guess she'd do the same with sheets, so don't know the point! Shock

Thanks everyone, glad I'm not the only one struggling with deciding what is the best to do Grin

He has kicked sheet off again, so think a sleeping bag is needed! Better do some shopping Wink

Just long sleeved baby grow and no bedding. It's over 24 degrees and stuffy in his room.

ThursdayLast · 17/07/2014 20:44

Just a baby gro.
Blankets don't stay on and a gro bag is just tooooooooo hot.

Azquilith · 17/07/2014 20:47

Just nappy. In my bloody bed.

Wincher · 17/07/2014 20:48

Nappy and 0.5 tog grobag.

SnoozyGiraffe · 17/07/2014 20:49

Nappy and a 1.0 tog bag, though I'd use a 0.5 if we had one

Ohbollocksandballs · 17/07/2014 20:55

Nappy and a 1 tog bag. We do have a 0.5 but it's currently covered in calpol.

Snowflakepie · 17/07/2014 20:58

Nappy and sleeveless vest. He can get out of grobag if he has bare legs as he sticks to it and pops out of the top Smile

His room is 28 degrees tonight. No breeze at all, hoping the storms come soon. Our house is lovely and snuggly in the winter but my word, summer is unbearable.

FavaBeanPyramidScheme · 17/07/2014 20:59

Just a nappy and he has still got prickly heat Shock!

FavaBeanPyramidScheme · 17/07/2014 21:01

Why do you all have DC in grobags / clothes? I don't think there's any chance they'll get cold without them. It is far too hot to wear anything!

beccajoh · 17/07/2014 21:03

A babygrow and nothing else.

Spanielpuppy · 17/07/2014 21:03

Badfam1 you need a muslin grobag. They are great keep them cool but had the comfort of being in their usual grobag.

Mumof3xox · 17/07/2014 21:04

Baby gro here

Spanielpuppy · 17/07/2014 21:05

Muslin gro bag and just a nappy. Keeps them cool but security of being covered

TheABC · 17/07/2014 21:08

Cloth nappy. There is a light blanket, but he has kicked it off. I generally add a t-shirt and fleece blanket, but it is too hot.

TerrifiedMothertobe · 17/07/2014 21:13

Nappy and vest. But he's taken for ever to get off to sleep. 24 in his room.

deadwitchproject · 17/07/2014 21:24

cotton t-shirt and 1 tog grobag

brilliantsunshine · 17/07/2014 21:41

26 degree in our room here! Dd is in nappy and short sleeved vest but I did think maybe just nappy tonight but I guess it will cool down a bit later
