New mom!! And questiona
Hi all!! My name is Leah and we welcomed our new little girl, Kaitlyn into the world on Friday 11/1. Today is our first day home!!' Now I'm a bit nervous! How do I dress little one to sleep tonight? House is on 68 she'll be in our room overnight in her bassinet. How should I dress her cotton sleeper and halo swaddle me? We do sleep with door closed, so it tends to stay warm. In hospital they had her in a long sleeve t shirt swaddled in 2 blankets. I don't want her getting to hot but how do I know she's warm enough??

FIrst Congrats Second dont worry, babies have this way of letting us know when they are uncomfortable.
I would do the cotton sleeper with a swaddle me.
They say a little on the cooler side is better.

Agree with above postet. I would say a cotton sleeper with swaddle me. If you feel its cold then i say put a onesie under sleeper but if not then sleeper should be fine.
Congratulations!

Agreed. You don't want them to overheat so a sleeper with a swaddle me is probably good. I usually had a hat on DD at night when it was cool too. Keep in mind their hands will get cold fastest and that's fine. Check the back of their neck to see if they feel warm enough.

Congrats! As everyone mentioned I would put her in the cotton sleeper and swaddle. If she seems cold when you feed, put on something heavier but she should be ok
Btw - Love the name; am considering it for #2
