Heat is out, cold baby!

So the Air Force turned our heat off yesterday and it will be off for the next two months thank you Sequester. This won't be a big deal for long as the weather warms up, but last night it was 30 degrees in DD's room and her little hands were freezing. After two wakeups within an hour I just brought her to our bed so she would stay warm with my body heat. She got great sleep; DH and I did not.
Any tricks to keeping little hands and head warm? We have her in a onesie, warm pj's, and a sleep sack. She rolls all the time so a swaddle is not an option.

  • Oh, and no space heaters allowed.

    30 degrees? Are you fcking serious? They cannot expect a baby to sleep in a house with no heat. There's nothing that can be done?

  • Whoa, whoa, whoa. They turned off your heat? I am a landlord, and it is state law that you provide your tenants with heat, always. I am assuming you are living in Air Force housing -- there is no such code as that?

    Honestly, I would be screaming

  • I'd be in a hotel room or staying with family or friends who have heat. There's no fcking way I could deal with that, let alone my babies.

  • But I am going to go buy a space heater today, because this is ridiculous.

  • Besides the issue that your heat is off and shouldn't be - sorry for that. Try a baby beanie and socks on her hands. Tuck them into the sleeper so they stay on.
