with all this heat

i dunno what to do with LO at night?!
he likes to be swaddled to sleep
swaddled him in the evening for like 10 mins and he was so sweaty so we had a restless night with a sheet tucked over him
he likes to be wrapped up but how can i wrap him up in this?!
what are your LO sleeping in now, and how much do they wear in the day
my LOs just flitting about in a thin vest lol its far too hot

What about swaddling him in the sheet? Or making sure u tuck the sheet in really tight down the side of the mattress so your Lo feels more secure. I cant really help because my Lo hates being swaddled! Xxx

have you heard of the swaddleme summer wraps? they're quite good if you have to swaddle your LO but want something light, it's one layer throughout and quite thin cotton, you could just keep him in his nappy underneath it, or a light vest

What are you using to swaddle? I bought from https://www.bigmuz.com/ - just big muslin squares, nice and thin and perfect for summer!

I just wrap Harrison in the sheet in just his nappy.

thanks ladies,
ive never been keen on the actual swaddle wraps, they dont like as secure as doing it with a blanket?

what sheets are you guys using? the moses basket flat sheets too small to swaddle and the cot bed one is too big! the only thing that ever seems to fit is fleece blankets which are just far too thick
