Room temp at night & Pajama's

in Babies: 9 - 12 Months

My DS's room stays around 75 degrees at night (we haven't turned our A/C on yet for the summer). 

I currently have him sleeping in long sleeve footed pajama's and a onesie.

Do you think I am overdressing him for bed?  He doesn't seem too hot or uncomfortable, but I am still concerned.

    Whoa. My DS would melt away with those layers. At most he would wear long sleeve footed jammies and that even in the dead of winter.

    We keep the house at 73 and DS sleeps in footless pj pants and a short sleeve pj top.

    I think the onesie under is too much. We have the same issues too. We put him in a onesie and pants he'll be hot, if it's just a onesie, then he is freezing at early morning hours, but won't wake up or complain. We just dress him in a cotton light footed sleeper with the fan on, or pj footless pants and a shortsleeve onesie.

    I think I need to run out and buy something like that this weekend.  His long sleeved footed ones are lightweight, but he also sleeps with a blanket and I don't want him to overheat.

    Thanks.

    Do you have a Costco close to you? They have 3 piece Carters pj sets for $8! The come with the pants, top and shorts! I bought all 5 styles that they had.

    We haven't turned our air on yet, either.  Max sleeps in a onsie or a romper.  There is a fan in his room, but we keep the windows closed and locked.  He has a crocheted blanket, but even in just a onsie he wakes up sweaty in the morning sometimes.

    Yep we do, and I even have a membership :)  I think I will run over there tomorrow and pick up some.  Thanks for the tip.

    That sounds WAY too hot for me.  On the hottest nights, we have LO's room at 69 and he's in long-sleeved pajamas.  I think they recommend 68 degrees for babies.  I'd turn your a/c on.

    I keep our condo at 72 at night, plus a fan in DS's room.  His room is the coolest in the house, so it's probably more like 70-71.  He's in footed pjs and a very light sleepsack.  I sleep in a big tshirt, sheet and blanket, so I figure that's about the same.  I'd say you might be overdressing a little bit.

    Yes.  G's room is 70-72 and she's in shorts and a t shirt.  She has a blanket but she sleeps on it, with it bunched up at her pelvis, not over her.  LOL.  She's fine at night.

    Well, our house has been close to 75 at night some of the nights lately, and I myself sleep in light pants and long sleeve with a sheet.  My 3yr sleeps in pants and long sleeves, but his blanket doesn't stay on for long.  My 3 month old sleeps in a onsie and cotton Halo SleepSack Swaddle and seems perfectly comfortable to me.  If your LO seems comfortable, that I think he's fine, but it would be much better to put a fan in his room, not only to keep it cooler, but the circulating air helps reduce the risk of SIDS.  I'm a huge fan of wearable blankets, particularly the Halo ones, and that what my oldest slept in for a long time.
