He wears footed jammies with a onesie and socks under, then a blanket on top. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blankets#post-37869 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 23:51:49 +0000 mrs. wagon 37869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In the winter when RJ was first born, we'd swaddle him with a miracle blanket (with just a short sleeved onesie on underneath) and then tuck another blanket (usually a knit or fuzzy one) around the swaddle. He also wore a hat at all times. </p> <p>Now we just do cotton pajamas and a cotton sleep sack on warm nights, fleece sleep sack on cold nights. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blankets#post-37856 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 23:48:04 +0000 T.H.O.U. 37856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She was swaddled for the first four months with the Aden and Anais blankets. Now we just put her in a sleep sac. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blankets#post-37449 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 20:11:19 +0000 Andrea 37449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It depends if it is the summer or winter and how warm you keep your house. My daughter has always been fine in footed pajamas and a sleep sack blanket. We keep the temperature in her room at about 71 degrees. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blankets#post-37444 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 20:09:06 +0000 heffalump 37444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had the summer swaddleme blankets for her. It was summer so we didn't want to put too much on her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blankets#post-37437 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 20:07:10 +0000 Mrs. Bee 37437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>the general rule of thumb is one more layer than you're wearing. with olive we put her in a footed romper, a swaddleme (similar to miracle blanket), then an aden and anais swaddle blanket.</p> <p>charlie sleeps in a long sleeve onesie, pajama pants, and a merino kids wool sleep sack. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blankets#post-37403 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 19:45:13 +0000 twinmama 37403@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom taught me (1) to layer - they can wear a onesie under a sleeper, or a onesie/sleeper inside of a larger sleep sack. She thinks a baby should have a hat, onesie, and socks at all times :) And (2) the baby will feel similar to you, at least at home - if you're cold, they're probably cold, and if you're too warm, they probably are too. This is, of course, barring a preemie. I was kind of surprised since I always thought babies needed to be kept warmer.</p> <p>With my nephew, SIL generally just kept him in a sleeper and a swaddle blanket at night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blankets#post-37400 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 19:39:12 +0000 amy 37400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They were swaddled when they were new borns so I would adjust how many blankets to swaddle based on the temperature. I also did onesies plus sleep gowns. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/blankets#post-37399 Mon, 19 Dec 2011 19:37:28 +0000 autumnlove 37399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know babies aren't supposed to have blankets in their cribs but I am afraid my baby will be too cold! Did your newborn sleep with just a onesie and Sleepsack type wearable blanket? </p>
