FTM due January, what to have baby in at night? grobag/swaddle?

[lana29]

I've been looking at the newborn love2dream swaddle and grobag from Tommee tippee and can't decide between the two, I was thinking 2.5 tog and then a short vest and sleep suit? Does this seem fine?
Sounds silly and wanting to get it right, I have autism and want to prepare best

This would be from birth xx

We had the tomee tipee grobag and really liked it. What they wear depends on the temperature of the room they're in - ours came with a guide but it will be easy to find online.

I had a sleepyhead with mine and then tucked a cellular blanket in under their arms and into the sleepyhead whilst they were in a sleepsuit (but they were spring and autumn babies).

My sister seemed to have a lot of success with swaddles for the first couple of months until the baby learnt to kick their feet out :)

Congratulations!

Tommee Tippee do a swaddle GroBag... there are poppers at the shoulders so you can have arms in or out. I'll try to find a link.

Lots of images online to help with what to wear underneath based on temperature too 🙂 if you get a thermometer set up in the room the baby will sleep in you'll have an idea before they arrive!
