Neither. We were using sleep sacks until about a couple weeks ago and switched to pj's with long sleeve onesie underneath. His room stays nice and warm and he is a warm little kid too.
My DD is younger than 9mo and she sleeps with 2 blankets. She has a small satin and terry cloth blanket she like to put her head on and then she covers herself with a fleece blanket. I took her out of her sleep sack about 2 weeks ago bc she was get so comfortable with her blankies.
Maja has been using a sleep sack AND blanket since day one.... hated being swaddled so we had to figure something else out to keep her warm without putting 100 layers on her.
I put the blanket down and put her on top and fold it over her... she still doesn't move too much around so the blanket prettty much stays underneath her the whole time.
I figure that by the time she can move around, she will be old enough to get it off her face plus we mostly use crocheted blankets so they have "holes" in them
Blanket since pretty much day 1. DD has always moved around a lot in her sleep and for some reason I've always felt comfortable with it. It never stays on her for too long anyway she always manages to get it off somehow.
We use a XL Halo Sleepsack because beyond the safety concerns, I feel like she wouldn't know how to keep herself covered with a conventional blanket all night long.
Re: does your 9 mo old sleep with a blanket?

Yes. ?And I have no qualms about it either.?
