Anna still NEEDS hers. She has a hard time sleeping without them. I think they have become her lovie, actually. So I just bought some cottons ones. I think she will be in them for a while!
Brought to you by IVF, ICSI, limited fert, and oocyte cryopreservation. Because we're fancy like that.
Our Journey from two to three!
3 IUI's, 2 IVF's, decided to move to foster/adopt.
12/24/2009 Baby C born, 2/1/2010 placed with us,
5/17/2011 Adoption final- we are finally a forever family!
Brady still uses them, and I did get him a summer one. He's mastered walking in them in his crib, actually, it's pretty funny. I think they help him sleep better.
Katie is still in a sleep sack!! She does not mind it and it keeps her from stripping : ) We just use a light cotton one in the summer. We have our air on so it is cool in her room.
Oh God, we used them until we couldn't anymore - close to 2 years old (18 - 24 months size.) I LOVED sleep sacks (Halo cotton ones, never used fleece because Jack would get too hot.) Like a nap in a bag, they just gave Jack that instant signal that it was sleepy time. LOVED sleep sacks.
Wheee!

DS2 is 14 months, and still in sleepsacks. I plan to have him sleep in them through the summer, fall, and winter, so at least until he's over 2 years old. We have the Halo ones, and he's mostly still in the fleece ones, but on warmer days he sleeps in a cotton one. It's part of his routine, and I always like sleeping with at least a sheet throughout the summer, so it's the same thing. Actually, my 4yr has a fleece Halo Big Kids sleepsack (with footholes) that he sleeps in sometimes. They are just so much more safe and practical then loose blankets.
Re: Sleep Sacks how long did you use them?
Because we're fancy like that.
