keeping cool

[koa]

What is best thing for babies to sleep in when it this hot?

I have a grobag thermometer next to dd's moses basket in our room. The last 2 nights it has been on 25 degrees at night! We have had her in just a babygro with no covers which she is happy with. If it gets a little cooler we just put a sheet on her but still no vest.

I have done same though it has made him even worse with legs out of cot. I have been looking for a cotton sheet gro bag sort of thing but cant find one.

mine has some summer pj's but last night was to warm so he had just a vest on. he is a little hottie in bed so he was fine in this. by early morning we just pulled the sheet up.

just a vest here aswell

I got a sheet sleeping bag from jojomamanbebe. Bumpto3 also do 0.5tog bags - you get a 10% mumsnet discount with both of them too.

Ive put mine a vest and then put him in a pillow case. Our room is unbearably hot!

ds is just in his vest!! very hot at the moment!!

just a nappy, and even that I was eyeing in the heat of the night...It was sticking to his skin. We co-sleep, so when it gets cooler, he snuggles up to me.

I've put my ds in travel cot in my room as slightly cool than his (currently at 28. Just put nappy on him, may move him into his room in a bit if it cools down. Its way too hot at mo!! Tomorrow suppossed to be hotter

I cut a head hole and two arm holes in a pillowcase.

Looked at 0.5 tog bags today even those seemed thick. Would like a very thin cotton one - thickness of a sheet maybe. If was more talented and confident I would make one from a pillow case. What is the thinnest sleep bag anyone has found?

Jo jo Maman Bebe does these sheet ones.

Tesco does sheet ones for £4 or £6 (can't remember the price)

Nappy and a vest top - it was 27 in our room last night!!!!

Have to put a light sheet over her legs if not in grobag otherwise she can't sleep for playing with her feet!!!

are the Tesco ones 100% cotton? if not polyester would trap in a bit of heat and moisture.

The Tesco ones are pure cotton

Thank you for the info, unfortunatly, I cant find the Tesco ones I've been in store and have tried on line. Has anyone a link?

Just a vest for ds

We got a 0.5 tog sheet sleeping bag from John Lewis. I think it is a grobag.

just a nappy on really hot nights, vest on warm ones. Usually sneak in before bed and put a sheet or cellular blanket over him. We have the .5 tog bag but its too restrictive for hot nights. Ds is 15 months though and often competes in cot gymnastics...
