Sleeping in clothes?

happy_un-bride

Is it bad to let my ds sleeping his clothes tonight? He fell asleep in the way home didn't put his pjs on before they left. I put him from the car seat to bed, but didn't change him out of his clothes.

No biggie, DS sleeps in shorts all the time.  No shirt, cuz he's a nudist, but also because we keep our house really warm.

I see nothing wrong with it. If lo falls asleep in her clothes I'm definitely not waking her up to change her..

Well, again we are terrible parents.  Yes, we use pjs...but if she has on a good shirt without too much junk on it from the day, we just put her to bed in that.  She always uses a sleep sack unless she really falls asleep before we put it on, which hasn't happened since she was tiny...

DD always goes to sleep in her clothes underneath her PJ's (a fleece footed sleeper). She wears soft, cotton onesies, shirts, and pants... plenty comfortable enough to sleep in. Now if her clothes were dirty or she was wearing something uncomfortable for sleep, like jeans or a dress, then I would change her out of that. But if she fell asleep with her clothes on, no matter what they were, I wouldn't wake her up to change her. 

ETA: I should add that the main reason we put her to bed with clothes on is to keep her warm. She won't use a blanket and I'm afraid she'd get too cold without layers on underneath her PJ's. We do usually take her pants off and just keep on a long-sleeved onesie or a short-sleeved onesie with a shirt over top, plus her socks.

If that's bad then I'm a bad mom, too!  My older boys sleep in their clothes more than I care to admit.  DD1 sometimes sleeps in whatever costume she's wearing at bedtime.

I figure it's less laundry for me to do...

I have done this with DS a few times. Lately he comes home from DC filthy, though, so I haven't done it in awhile.

I have done it a lot. Dd takes fore ER to fall asleep. There is no way I would wake her .
