sleeping bags when it gets colder
hello ladies
we currently use a 2.5 sleeping bag and LO wears a vest and pjs under that at the mo, we are going to need some longer bags but i cant find a higher tog, so when it gets colder what do you do? LO was born in dec but as he was so small and didnt move we could wrap in blankets but he moves so much they dont stay on for long now

In the summertime we used a 1 tog sleeveless bag and vest/pjs or just pjs if it was particularly warm.
I think i am going to get her a bambino merino sleeping bag for this winter as it should last her for another year or so. They are also all weather

With my dd she would have a vest, pjs, socks and then a fleecy babygrow over the top of all that (you can get them in Primark they go up to about 3 years i think?) and then a 2.5 sleeping bag. Sounds extreme but her nursery use to drop below 10 so it was very cold... we had to have the heating on through out the night too. She is in a different room now which is a bit warmer as it was insulated and she has a quilt but her baby brother is in her old room for this winter so i shall have to do the fluffy babygrow thing with him xx
Ethan is currently in a 2.5 tog bag with just a babygrow and no vest and he's been fine, until the temp dropped last night and the cold freezing hads have returned, so i'll be vesting him up tongight.
As our babies are same month, i've decided to get a sleeping bag with arms from jojo maman bebe, and i did at times used to put a blanket over to, but again like yours won't be able to de to wriggling, so guess i'll just keep heating on til about 10pm in winter months as i hate it being on overnight, and it doesn't help that Ethan possibly suffers Asthma, so heating doesnt help him.
So cant offer no great advice!
i might have to invest in a fleecy sleepsuit x

in the winter we still stick to a 2.5 and ds has long sleeved vest and pjs on, we usually ahve the heating on so it stays around 17/18???? in his room anyway even in the winter, if u find its still on the chilly side u could always just lay a sheet or blanket over the top of him when u go to bed
this chart might help
