Now that it has gotten a little cooler in some parts of the country, how do you dress your baby if you are putting them in a carrier or wrap? I feel like a jacket would be too warm since my body heat keeps her warm.
I just went for a walk with DD in the Bjorn, and I dressed her in a long sleeved long pants sleeper and socks. Not sure how cold it is where you are, though - it was 64 and sunny with a strong breeze on our walk.

I usually just put him in a sleeper (with a onesie underneath if it's really chilly), and we use the Moby (which is warmer than some other carriers). I will use a hat too when it's cold/windy since his head is mostly exposed.
NBs need one layer more of clothing than an adult, so when I babywear I dress baby in the same number of layers/weight of clothing as me and then count the wrap as the extra layer.
