We did do Halo fleece sleepsacks when she was little, with either a short-sleeve or a long-sleeve cotton onesie underneath, depending on how chilly it was.</p> <p>Since around 5 months, she just sleeps in footed jammies, either cotton or fleece. I'm starting to put her in fleece now, and she'll stay in fleece until around May. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-baby-wear-to-bed#post-1093513 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:53:58 +0000 Penny Lane 1093513@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we did an under onesie, a long sleeved, mittened, footed sleeper, a muslin swaddle and a merino swaddle over top. when he was a few weeks old we ditched the swaddle and used a doubled over cotton blanket over top of the merino.</p> <p>we didn't have central heating so i don't know what temp the room was! this was southern hemisphere August, so that's like February for you northerners? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-baby-wear-to-bed#post-1093511 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:53:23 +0000 PurpleUnicorn 1093511@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>L was born last November and slept in fleece footed sleepers....and still does at 10 months! for the first several months we swaddled with arms in, then out. once he was in his crib at 6 months we did the sleep sacks briefly, then ditched them, tried blanket and then ditched that too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-baby-wear-to-bed#post-1093507 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:50:28 +0000 Mrs. Taco 1093507@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We keep the house at 72 degrees and LO sleeps in a cotton footed sleeper and a cotton swaddle sleep sack. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-baby-wear-to-bed#post-1093505 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:49:58 +0000 Smurfette 1093505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are in Atl, so still hot here but she sleeps in footed pjs and a sleep sack. Might use fleece pjs depending on how cold her room is during the winter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-baby-wear-to-bed#post-1093504 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:49:53 +0000 Rubies 1093504@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I live in Toronto so it's already cold here. #2 is also due in October and he/she will probably wear a long-sleeve footed onesie and then swaddled twice? I don't know... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-baby-wear-to-bed#post-1093491 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:44:21 +0000 shopaholic 1093491@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never really liked the fleec because I feel it doesn't breathe. But we live in SoCal and I'm sure people in much colder climates prefer the fleece. Long-sleeved, footed sleepers under the sleepsacks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-baby-wear-to-bed#post-1093464 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:31:31 +0000 Katrocap 1093464@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DS runs on the hot side. He was born in January and we live in Baltimore and keep the house about 68F in the winter. For the first few months we just dressed him in a cotton footed sleeper / sleep &amp; play and swaddled him in a A&amp;A muslin blanket. Fleece was too much for him! Like @locavore_mama said, it really depends on your LO and your house temp. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-baby-wear-to-bed#post-1093438 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:20:36 +0000 regberadaisy 1093438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tillma: it really depends on if your baby runs hot or cold. What temp you keep your house, etc. At this point I would def get long sleeve footed sleepers. Get a few cotton and fleece. And I would get at least one cotton and one fleece sleepsack to start with.<br /> And also will you be swaddling? I think if you are s/he should be fine with just that? We never swaddled so I don't know if you swaddle AND sleep sack?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-does-baby-wear-to-bed#post-1093427 Tue, 17 Sep 2013 19:13:54 +0000 tillma 1093427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is due in Oct...Should we get the cotton or fleece sleep sacks and what should we put him in underneath? </p>
