In winter, the kids just switch to a long sleeved onesie and fleece jams inside the sack. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/winter-sleep-sacks#post-1151971 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 23:01:46 +0000 shopaholic 1151971@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haven't used our GroBag yet, but I love the Baby DeeDee. K is an active sleeper too, but the snaps seem pretty secure! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/winter-sleep-sacks#post-1151914 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 21:25:11 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1151914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we have a merino kids one that i haven't really used yet. i got it for charlie but he stopped using sleep sacks shortly afterwards, so i will have to try it on olive. like others say, it is super duper long!</p> <p>we had a thick grobag, i think the 2.5 tog one, but it felt pretty thick to roll around in. so far we've just been using halo fleece sleep sacks and turning up the heat because i don't like being cold. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/winter-sleep-sacks#post-1151904 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 21:12:31 +0000 winniebee 1151904@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the dede. He's 17 months old and still will sleep in it when cold. Very sturdy and button hasn't snapped off yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/winter-sleep-sacks#post-1151897 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 21:05:34 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1151897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: DS is also a very active sleeper but he hasn't gotten tangled yet (hopefully never!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/winter-sleep-sacks#post-1151894 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 21:04:20 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1151894@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We also love our merino kids one. Worth every penny and it's lasting me through two kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/winter-sleep-sacks#post-1151834 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 20:25:29 +0000 immabeetoo 1151834@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: baby deedee here but poly filling in between cotton. If you know anyone or sew yourself there are free patterns out there if you wanted to upcycle wool! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/winter-sleep-sacks#post-1151824 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 20:17:18 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1151824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LemonLong: the tangling is a worry for me. LO is a very active sleeper.</p> <p>@birdofafeather: we had zipper issues on two A&amp;A sacks and then their replacement has weird lint balls between the layers. I really wanted to like them.</p> <p>@Elderberrygin: that looks really cozy. Like a baby duvet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/winter-sleep-sacks#post-1151525 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 16:43:05 +0000 Elderberrygin 1151525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were given an ergopouch cotton wearable quilt. <a href="http://www.ergopouchusa.com/product-p/ergo-pouch-organic-quilt-2.5.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.ergopouchusa.com/product-p/ergo-pouch-organic-quilt-2.5.htm</a> . </p> <p>They're expensive - I wouldn't have spent the money on one myself - but I love it. Cosy without overheating and as an added bonus LO doesn't jam her legs through the crib slats when she's wearing it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/winter-sleep-sacks#post-1151325 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 14:49:39 +0000 birdofafeather 1151325@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we really like the a&amp;a one we have and then we have the microfleece halo ones. they are lighter, but the fleece is warm! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/winter-sleep-sacks#post-1151249 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 14:09:18 +0000 LemonLong 1151249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use a Merino Kids wool one. It's really thin, but seems to keep her toasty warm. It's made to fit sizes 0-2 years old and my only complaint is that it's so long she kind of gets tangled up in it since she moves soooo much in her sleep. She doesn't seem at all bothered by it though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/winter-sleep-sacks#post-1151232 Tue, 15 Oct 2013 14:02:07 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1151232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've had QC issues with the A&amp;A cozy sack. She can bust out of the snapped shoulder of the grobags we have, I imagine she'll do the same with deedee.</p> <p>I'd prefer to have natural materials.</p> <p>What's your favorite?<br /> Have you tried the wool ones? They're crazy pricey but look so warm.</p> <p>Talk to me. </p>
