What to sleep in

Hello my nearly 16 week old baby is coming down with a cold and has a temperature. We have given her calpol. It's quite warm here tonight in Ireland so was wondering what should we put her to sleep in considering she has a temp and the room temperature is reading 22 degrees. Was thinking a long sleeved vest and blanket maybe? Any advice would be really appreciated!

As little as possible. Depending on how high her fever is I'd do vest and a very light blanket if you think she really needs it. I often do just nappy and a blanket, and we're in England. I work in healthcare so I'm probably more OTT than most when it comes to this but it's so important not to let them over heat.
