Cooler weather bumpies- what is your new born sleeping in at night?

BeachCouple · November 2013

What are you dressing your newborn in to sleep at night? Are you doing fleece sleeps or cotton sleepers, with or w/o sleep sack? What are you keeping your room temp at? Just curious what others are doing. I have been using fleece sleepers since she is still waking up a couple times a night. Opening the sleeper and the sack for diaper changes was annoying me.

SS onesie, fleece sleep sack (with long sleeves), and a muslin swaddle blanket on top just to keep his arms down (he sleeps much better when swaddled). The thermostat is at 67. When it was a bit warmer out we did cotton pajamas and a cotton swaddle me.

Terry cloth footie pajamas, and a miracle blanket swaddle. She also lies on a plush sheet rather than a smooth one. We'd tried her in two layers of clothes (and a hat) but it made her sweaty.

This for us too but we leave the ceiling fan on.

Wow, I keep a hot house! Air is set at 70-71. Little guy sleeps in long sleeve onesie or footsie outfit and is swaddled, then we tuck another swaddle blanket around him to pin his arms down real tight and keep him warm. He sleeps in a PnP.

60 degrees. Sleeper (cotton or fleece depending on what's clean), fleece long sleeve sleep sack, blanket tucked tightly around in RnP - arms out cuz he hates then in.

I've kept the thermostat around 67-70 area because it's been under 20 here in MA at some points. I have been dressing LO in a long-sleeved cotton onesie and a blanket. Sometimes, he has a short-sleeved onesie, but always with one blanket. He sleeps in the bassinet between my husband and I or he sleeps on one of us. He prefers body heat, quite honestly.

House is up to 70 because I was having chills the first week home... She sleeps in a halo swaddle wrap most nights and fleece sleepers during the day, with an undershirt under both. We do tuck her in under blankets if we manage to get her to sleep in the bassinet for a couple hours but most if the time she is sleeping on me in the recliner.

We keep the house at 70. She sleeps in a long sleeved onesie or a kimono sleeper (it looks like a long dress with elastic on the bottom) with socks. And then we swaddle her in a flannel blanket.

hollowway · December 2013

We have a woodstove and our house is made out of brick ((aka we live in a damn oven lol)). The house can be anywhere from 75-85* depending on outside temps. We keep our bedroom door shut to keep it cooler in there, 65-70*... DD sleeps in long sleeve gowns, swaddled with a recieving blanket and usually covered up with a thicker blanket.

N00dles · December 2013

68 degrees and we are keeping our newborn DS swaddled in a cotton HALO sleepsack. Nothing underneath but a diaper. If its cold in the house we have been using a fleece HALO.

He sleeps just fine it seems. it just hit 18 outside temp today. Our house is also new so the HVAC is pretty efficient.

roo1oo · December 2013

His room is between 68 and 70. Usually he sleeps in a long sleeved onesie, socks and an A & A swaddle blanket with his arms loosely swaddled. Sometimes if it's really cold out and the house feels colder he goes to sleep in a cotton footed sleeper and a swaddle blanket. Anything warmer and he'll be sweaty in the middle of the night.

We keep our house at 70 and LO sleeps in a fleece sleeper or a sleep sack which we put a onesie under and then we swaddle her.

Wow.. I live in Houston, TX, nad usually

texasmommie · December 2013

My bump seems to me messing up lately.. let me try this again... Wow.. I live in Houston TX, and usually its hot here, but we've been in the high 30s all day due to the cold front. My thermostat is set at 75. Am I keeping my house too hot? LO sleeps in a long sleeve/footed cotton onesie, with a thin cotton blanket swaddle with arms out. She doesn't sleep good at night.. now im wondering if shes too hot maybe? Its cold to me in here so I think she could be cold.. im paranoid like that... should the house temp be that low (68-69)? FTM so I learn things every day.

If you feel the back of her neck, is she sweaty? Are her hands or feet cold? That's how I decide if she's too warm or cold.
