Won't keep blanket on!

Hi, dd is 13 months old and has never been a fan of blankets. She has never been swaddled or put in a sleeping bag. During summer this hasn't been a problem but am thinking about the winter coming she is obviously able to kick off any blankets cover etc I put over her! Should I try her with a thicker sleep suit and just leave blanket off ?

Have you tried a sleep bag?

You can get duvet/blankets clips from JoJoMaman Bebe. They are brilliant.

Sleeping bags are great imo. Or you can get padded sleepsuits instead. I've seen them in mothercare and jojo maman bebe recently.

No never tried a Sleep bag, she doesn't like being restricted and will kick any thing that I attempt to put over her :/

Sleeping bags are very roomy, not at all restrictive.

Might be worth a go?

Sleeping bags are great, my 5 wk old screams blue murder when he's swaddled and within minutes his arms and legs are free. There's plenty room in sleeping bags and he's really content in them.

Thanks am going to try sleep bag :)

Also you can get fleece onsies with feet. Very cosy, over pyjamas or a baby grow.

By the way duvet clips are what I was on about!
