25 degrees in his room!! (now 26 eek!)

[aimee-lou]

Earl's room is 26 degrees at the moment and he's in bed in just a vest tonight. I keep a stack of sheets and blankets of varying weights next to his bed so that I can pile him up if it gets chilly - it has been clear as a bell here all day so I'm expecting a chilly night - well, cooler anyway lol.

Last night he was in a baby-gro and he felt a bit hot. I've also taken his waterproof sheet off as I think this was making him hotter.

Ours is 27. Ethan is just in his nappy! As it drops cooler I'll drape a muslin over his legs. He still wakes 3am ish for a feed so if it's cooler I'll pop a short sleeved vest on him before I pop him back down.
I always think - if baby is too cold, he'll wake up. If baby's too hot...
I'd rather err on the side of caution.
It's a nightmare isn't it

25 in our room. put LO down in a long sleeved vest and 1 tog sleeping bag but took off the sleeping bag as it didn't seem right to me.

Put a blanket over the bottom half of her legs so her thighs are exposed.

I'm just winging it but I think that seems right.

If somone put me in a long sleeved vest and a sleeping bag I think I'd be too hot. But then I'm not a baby.


I honestly don't know.

It's 24 in LO's room at the mo so we've got her in a long sleeved vest and have draped a cellular blanket over her legs so she can kick it off if she wants to.

Last night I put her in her 1tog growbag just before going to bed (the temp had dropped to 22 degrees). I'll do the same tonight if it's a similar temp. She didn't wake at all when I put her in it!

urgh its just so annoying. I just took her 1 tog bag off her and have her just in a vest as the nursery is 26, but then i worry about it getting chilly later. Seems strange seeing her in a vest only, doesnt seem right

LO is still in her vest it's far too hot, will cover her with a light blanket later when he temperature drops

I have my two in just a sleepsuit and no vest atm. Window is open in there and it's still showing 27 on the thermometer. Will probably but a thin blanket over them before I go to bed later if the temp drops a little but I'd rather them be a little on the cool side than to overheat

thanks everyone :thumbsup: we all have the same problems!

last night (when i first posted) he was just in a vest, untill about 12 when i snuck a sleepsuit on him, i tried a small blanket, but he kicks them off within seconds, even when hes fast asleep! i think it dropped to around 24ish & was still warm to walk into his room!

tonight hes just in a vest again, as its between 26/27, might sneak a sleepsuit if it gets cooler, saying that i've got his window wideeeeee open and its only a box room! and the temp aint going down! i'll have to get a fan if this keeps it up!

OT but i was watching the blackpool game at wemby and the temp was 41.5 there!!! i was sweating here at 26 during the day!

Baby will wake up if they're too cold.
Red Poppy - I've read that after 2 months the 'extra layer for baby' rule no longer applies, and so I dress Ethan in the same layers as I have.

Our room is 24 degrees right now.. usually I'd have the windows open to keep it cool but the neighbours are having a VERY loud party so I've shut them just so the poor little mite can get some kip! She's in a vest and a babygro with a light blanket loosley over her. Her sleeping bag is on standby in case she gets cold
