Cold room

My youngest's room gets so cold. We have like no insulation in our house and she has two exterior walls so her room gets colder than a lot of the others. She is swaddled so I really can't put her in anything else can I? I obviously don't want to put a blanket in there with her. Any ideas on ways I can keep her warm at night?

  • You can use a fleece swaddle me and footed pjs.

    This is what we did at our cottage this summer, which is also not insulated and gets quite cold. Footed pjs, fleece swaddle, and a hat.

  • Our house is the same way.  

    We put warm sleeper on, swaddle, and then tuck a blanket around him. We did the same thing with DS1.

    DS1 was a warmer baby than DS2. We'll probably bring an electric heater into DS2's room this winter.

  • I know we probably should stop this but we use the swaddle me sacks then tuck the aden blanket around him starting at the waist level. I would imagine that you can use the fleece footed PJ's with the swaddle sacks.

    yes, this is what they did at the hospital.

  • We use footed pjs, a swaddle me, and an additional blanket swaddled if necessary. We used to swaddle in a receiving blanket first, then swaddle me, but he is outgrowing his 7-13lb swaddle so we just blanket swaddle around that. I have some of the larger size woombies, but haven't broken those out just yet.

  • In the hospital they would do this so I kept it up I swaddle my son then take an extra blanket and tuck it under both sides of the mattress over him. It keeps him warm and from wiggling around so he's sttn.

  • I put on footie jams, a fleece sleep sack, a jersy/knit sleep sack over that if necessary and a hat. Snug as a bug in a rug.
