I wish it wasn't so pricy but looks awesome: <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00O281WJY/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&#038;colid=2J06RWG3FZ8R4&#038;coliid=I3OQRNWMAMWDX8&#038;psc=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00O281WJY/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_S_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&#038;colid=2J06RWG3FZ8R4&#038;coliid=I3OQRNWMAMWDX8&#038;psc=1</a> It's the Kowalli Fleece Baby Carrier Cover if that link doesn't work. Might have to get the one @TinyPerson showed in the meantime because I can afford that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-while-baby-wearing#post-1950723 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 13:06:05 +0000 MrsB2012 1950723@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use those fleece sleepers that @TraceyJoy: linked to. I also added an extra hat and then put a blanket or two over top of her and kept her face covered with the blanket. We live in Canada and we were out last winter when it was -25oC and she was toasty warm. I also saw this thing posted on a fb page where you put your baby on, then get a mens fleece zip up and put it on backwards overtop of the baby and you. Then put your coat on overtop ( though you can't do up your coat. ) You're warm from the fleece being done up, baby is warm with a big fleece around them, and you can use the hood to block their face from the cold. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-while-baby-wearing#post-1950714 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 13:00:28 +0000 MenagerieMama 1950714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Following to get some ideas! 23 degrees this morning, ugh. After nearly freezing LO at the park in the Moby the other day (and I thought I had her bundled well!) I made some emergency fleece purchases during the Old Navy sale recently, but would like some other ideas than just tucking a blanket around the Moby (and when I haven't had time to dress her in more layers, I wrapped my down coat around me frontwise to cover her! so stylish...). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-while-baby-wearing#post-1950621 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 12:21:03 +0000 luckypenny 1950621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tinyperson: the ergo one looks similar but it's not tight so her hands could get out. </p> <p>@Little Misters Mom: @twodoghouse: the only problem with that is I still can't zip up my coat and I was freezing !</p> <p>@looch: @Rockies11: thinking maternity coat may be the way to go :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-while-baby-wearing#post-1950546 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 11:43:23 +0000 tinyperson 1950546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used this: <a href="http://www.jollyjumper.com/show/84" rel="nofollow">http://www.jollyjumper.com/show/84</a> plus a fleece one-piece snowsuit and warm clothes underneath. If it was really cold, I put a blanket over that too... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-while-baby-wearing#post-1950531 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 11:39:04 +0000 Rockies11 1950531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I zipped my pregnancy jacket around Ergo and popped a hat on the baby for our long walks every day all last winter. The zipped jacked shelters their little heads. Worked like a charm and it is crazy cold and windy here. Obviously it looked ridiculous though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-while-baby-wearing#post-1950529 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 11:38:10 +0000 TraceyJoy 1950529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had this: <a href="http://www.carters.com/carters-baby-neutral-jackets-and-outerwear/V_127-912.html?cgid=carters-baby-neutral-jackets-and-outerwear&#038;dwvar_V__127-912_color=Color&#038;dwvar_V__127-912_size=3M" rel="nofollow">http://www.carters.com/carters-baby-neutral-jackets-and-outerwear/V_127-912.html?cgid=carters-baby-neutral-jackets-and-outerwear&#038;dwvar_V__127-912_color=Color&#038;dwvar_V__127-912_size=3M</a></p> <p>I live in Minnesota and wore my baby all winter, even in sub-0 temps. I added an extra hat but between this and my body heat he stayed cozy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-while-baby-wearing#post-1950479 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 11:13:48 +0000 looch 1950479@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used the same coat that I had bought while pregnant, it was big enough that I could put the Ergo on, and then zip the coat around it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-while-baby-wearing#post-1950473 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 11:09:57 +0000 twodoghouse 1950473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a boba fleece babywearing vest (formerly peekaru) that keeps us nice and cozy. It's thin so I can throw a coat over it too. They have a hoodie version too but I think it's harder to find. There are some other babywearing jackets/cover ups out there as well if this is t your style. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-while-baby-wearing#post-1950469 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 11:08:07 +0000 Little Misters Mom 1950469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you looked at the Peekaru stuff? It looks a little silly, but seems to keep babies toasty and is specifically designed for baby wearing. They've been purchased by Boba and I don't fully get where to buy the stuff directly now. But you can get it on Amazon.</p> <p>For whatever reason the links on boba.com don't work but if you type it is directly it does: <a href="http://www.boba.com/store/peekaru-original" rel="nofollow">http://www.boba.com/store/peekaru-original</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-while-baby-wearing#post-1950458 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 11:03:57 +0000 erwoo 1950458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can you wrap a warm fleece blanket around you and the Ergo? Not attractive but might be warmer? I heard about the freezing temps there! Stay warm! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-baby-warm-while-baby-wearing#post-1950338 Wed, 19 Nov 2014 10:07:56 +0000 luckypenny 1950338@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok. So I pick up my 2 year old daughter from school in manhattan - we live in brooklyn - and I bring my 7 month old with me in the Ergo. I tried the ergo weather cover but it's terrible. My biggest concern is the wind and her exposed face. </p> <p>Anyone have any great solutions? </p>
