What are your babies sleeping in now?

I have Jack either in a short sleeve onesie or a long sleeve pj - and I swaddle him in a blanket. Should I be using the swaddle me? Should I either keep him in long sleeve or the short sleeve right now? We have central air but it's hot on the top floor of the house. I just want to make sure he doesn't overheat.

If you have central air, I would say a long sleeve PJ is good. Sorry I can't help with the swaddle question because I never swaddled my son.

Ava has fleece pjs on usually. tonight I went with short sleeves and long pants, but I put a blanket in with her. When Ava was born last summer, I did full pjs, but the terry cloth ones. We have central air, so I knew she wouldn't overheat.

I swaddle Noah in the miracle Blanket. I have two swaddle me's and I find they overheat him BADLY. He wakes up with sweat on his back no matter if hes in a short sleeved onsie and nothing else.

Anyway....He wears a Short sleeved onsie or thin polyester footy PJS with the miracle blanket ...

And we sleep with the fan on and the AC on( ped said keep it around 73-74 degrees )

I have the miracle blanket also - maybe I'll try that tonight.

I am a kick azz swaddler though - so maybe I'll just keep him in the blankets. Chat Icon

There was one nurse who swaddled him so tight he looked like a little burrito...I made her teach me how to do it.

I have a few swaddle me's - so maybe I'll return them - I don't want them to make the munchkin sweat.

Me neither, but I usually use a blanket with him. On those hot nights he was in a bodysuit onesie. Last night a long sleeve bodysuit onesie. On colder nights he wears footsy onesies...

I would keep him in the footed pj with no blanket. If when you touch the trunk of his body and it is cool or warm then I would adjust his clothing. I still have Luka in footed pj's.

Re: What are your babies sleeping in now?

Our DS sleeps in a short sleeved onsie and we swaddle him in a receiving blanket. He doesn't like having his arms swaddled but he likes having his legs wrapped up. The swaddle me didn't allow us to do that. I'd say try both and see which one is more comfortable for him. If he's not happy, I'm sure he'd fuss or something like that.
