I was stressing the cold months before she figured that out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-doesnt-wear-a-sleep-sack#post-395199 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 13:39:03 +0000 Honeybee 395199@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS sleeps in footie pajamas and I tuck a (crocethed) blanket around him. I also keep the room warm (my husband calls it "the boiler room" lol), but I still worry a little bit that he might get cold at night... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-doesnt-wear-a-sleep-sack#post-395183 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 13:32:30 +0000 buffalove 395183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We put DS in fleece footed PJ's with a onesie underneath. We also keep the house at 70 degrees, and lately I've been putting a cotton hat on him too - he's still a baldy and I worry that he will get cold! His hands and feet are nice and toasty in the morning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-doesnt-wear-a-sleep-sack#post-394701 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 10:48:07 +0000 T-Mom 394701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We keep the temp at 74 (not hard to do in TX) so he sleeps in a footed sleeper and has a double layer muslin blanket with him. I have thought about trying a footed sleep sack though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-doesnt-wear-a-sleep-sack#post-394514 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 09:35:58 +0000 rachiecakes 394514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@betsyboop: it's a fitted crib sheet/mattress cover, but it's fuzzy and warm.<br /> like this one: <a href="http://www.dreamsoftbedware.com/flbafisash.html?gclid=CJaS8JaVzLMCFUWo4AodlAkAFA" rel="nofollow">http://www.dreamsoftbedware.com/flbafisash.html?gclid=CJaS8JaVzLMCFUWo4AodlAkAFA</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-doesnt-wear-a-sleep-sack#post-394512 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 09:35:17 +0000 Lozza 394512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We also keep the house at 70 degrees, and LO sleeps in fleecy footie pajamas, and has a small knit blanket in there with him. The blanket has lots of holes, and LO is 19 months, so I don't really worry about him suffocating.<br /> Also, we have a little space heater that we'll use in the room before we put LO to bed to warm up the room, and I think that helps. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-doesnt-wear-a-sleep-sack#post-394487 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 09:24:23 +0000 Andrea 394487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would put a onesie on underneath the footed PJs. 70 degrees is pretty cool so I don't think she will overheat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-doesnt-wear-a-sleep-sack#post-394477 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 09:21:54 +0000 betsyboop 394477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LAGS: Her hands were cool this morning :( I'm thinking I'll put a onesie on under her PJs tonight. Thanks for the tip! </p> <p>@rachiecakes: By chamois cover do you mean loose blanket or something more fitted? I have friends who put blankets in their babies' cribs but my DH won't let me do it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-doesnt-wear-a-sleep-sack#post-394438 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 08:42:53 +0000 rachiecakes 394438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I put DS in fleece pajamas and have a chamois cover for the crib mattress. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-doesnt-wear-a-sleep-sack#post-394431 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 08:37:13 +0000 LAGS 394431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does your LO's hands and/or ears feel cool? That seems to be the best indicator for us. If her hands are cool, I add a layer and haven't had issues with her getting too hot after.</p> <p>My LO sleeps in a sleep sack, but we keep our house pretty cool so we bought lots of fleece sleepers for some added warmth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-doesnt-wear-a-sleep-sack#post-394389 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 07:03:06 +0000 betsyboop 394389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What do you dress them in for sleep during the winter months? </p> <p>LO is too old to be swaddled and doesn't like sleep sacks. We've been putting her in footed PJ's and keep her room at around 70 degrees but I worry she might be cold at night. I have thought about a onesie under her PJ's but then I worry about overheating. I realize now that I'm sounding neurotic! It's so hard when they're too young to tell you if they're comfortable! </p>
