My LO is younger but doesn't like the sleep sack, so we live by those sleepers! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-28529 Tue, 06 Dec 2011 11:08:44 +0000 mommacommaphd 28529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use fleece PJs- that way our daughter really doesn't even need a blanket.</p> <p>However, she also has 2 blankets in her crib. She's almost 2 and from books and joining us in our bed- she knows what the blankets are for and keeps them on most of the nights. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-28005 Mon, 05 Dec 2011 12:53:02 +0000 cyndistar3 28005@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ever since my daughter moved into a bed she gets quite a few blankets durring the winter along with warm pajamas. I have to re tuck her blankets in on the bottom and sides a lot though because she throws them off from her rolling if I don't. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-27998 Mon, 05 Dec 2011 12:48:17 +0000 Rosie Girl 27998@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tina: Haha! It sounds HOT to me! We keep our thermostat at 63 in the winter! DS is a hot kid too, so I know that with everything I put on him, he is plenty warm! He will come into my room in the morning sweaty sometimes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-27996 Mon, 05 Dec 2011 12:46:55 +0000 Rosie Girl 27996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS wears heavy pajamas (keeping his socks on), and I cover him with his "warm blanket" (thats what he calls it), plus his sheet, comforter, and an extra fleece blanket! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-27984 Mon, 05 Dec 2011 12:37:07 +0000 mrs. wagon 27984@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In the winter, we keep the thermostat at 68, RJ sleeps in cotton footie pajamas and a fleece sleep sack. In the summer we keep the thermostat at 72 and he sleeps in a short sleeved onesie and a cotton sleep sack. This probably all sounds very cold to the rest of you, but he's always been a sweaty kid... he can never wear fleece or flannel or he sweats through his clothes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-27979 Mon, 05 Dec 2011 12:26:51 +0000 mamapink 27979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to just dress up my daughter in a long sleeve onesie and long pants up until a couple of months ago but she's outgrowing the onesie style. She is 20 months now and I never put her in a sleepsack. She moves around so much and I didn't think a sleepsack would be comfortable.<br /> Lately I've been putting her on those two piece pajamas from Gap/Old Navy but I'm looking for more comfy PJ's for her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-6459 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 23:03:46 +0000 chopstixwife 6459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>the kid has a onesie and then a carter fleece sleeper (the cheap ones from costco) on at night. He also has a blanket in his crib. It hasn't gotten cold enough to turn on the heat dish. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-6403 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 17:49:07 +0000 reggie 6403@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I keep it around 73- 74... I like it on the lower side though.. 70 - 72 is nice for me but I am always worried that he is cold! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-6389 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 17:35:36 +0000 BoogieBea 6389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Interesting. In guess we keep our temperatures in the low end of the spectrum. We had it at 69 now at 70. I don't want to raise it too much because it gets dry here and my son has had some nosebleeds lately. We also have a 3 month old who's still swaddled while sleeping so we don't want her to overheat. I think I'll just try thicker PJs for now. Thanks for the info everyone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-6366 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 14:53:03 +0000 Adira 6366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee - oh my gosh, your post makes me feel soooooo much better!!!! I usually keep my house around 75 as well, but I had read the 68-72 thing and so was nervous for my future children! I recently switched our temps to 72 for winter and I'm FREEZING all the time!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-6363 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 14:40:28 +0000 Mrs. Bee 6363@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i keep it around 75. they say you should keep it between 68-72, but that's freezing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-6342 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 14:14:31 +0000 chopsuey 6342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We keep our 3rd level (where the bedrooms are) at 70-72 degrees. My LO moves around like crazy and kicks off blankets so I just dress her in long sleeves. Recently purchased a sleep sack since the weather's getting chillier. </p> <p>In your case I'd put him in thicker clothes and maybe put a space heater in his room. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-6330 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 13:19:35 +0000 Adira 6330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Out of curiosity - what temperatures do you try to keep your kids room at? I tend to get chilly really easily and I know I keep my house a little on the warm side, which I've heard can be bad for babies who can't regulate their temperatures very well. I'm worried that I won't be able to judge how warm or cold it actually is since I'm almost always cold! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-6327 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 13:02:13 +0000 Mrs. Bee 6327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>charlie is still in his sleep sack. right now he wears a long sleeve onesie and a grobag. when it's chilly out, we crank up the heat and put pajama pants on him.</p> <p>the vornado heater is really great at warming up a room, and it's since it's a fan it's not dangerous like those space heaters with coils. we used that on extra cold nights because charlie's room is the chilliest. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-6320 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 12:31:14 +0000 looch 6320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can you do two pairs of pajamas, a thin cotton one and a fleece one on top? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-6318 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 12:28:16 +0000 Rubies 6318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am worried that my daughter gets cold at night (I'm snuggled under my duvet and sometimes I still feel chilly) so I'm actually on the hunt for a small space heater. That way before bed I can sort of warm up her room a bit, turn it off, and in the middle of the night warm it up again if need be. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/keeping-toddler-warm-at-night#post-6314 Wed, 26 Oct 2011 12:20:43 +0000 BoogieBea 6314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My son (age 2) just started to refuse the sleep sack, which he has been using since 9 months old. He has a blanket in his crib but is on the smaller side. He uses it more as a lovey.<br /> How should i keep him warm at night now? Should I get him a bigger blanket? Crank up the heat? Put heavier pajamas on him?</p> <p>How do you keep your toddlers warm at night? </p>
