    Just wondering what / how many layers are your babies sleeping in? It's just so warm & I know it's dangerous for babies to be too warm at night. I have a vest and light sheet on my 2 wk old. Window open slightly in bedroom but its roasting still!

    My fella is a bit older, 21 months, but he's just in a nappy these nights and even with the fly window open in his room and windows open in every other room upstairs, he's still warm and clammy and his hair in damp when he wakes and comes into us during the night.

    My 10 week old is on our bed so just a nappy and vest these nights. I put a cellular blanket over her but it usually gets kicked off.

    We've always used the rule of thumb that says whatever you are wearing plus one layer.

    Our 10 week old has just a sleeveless onsie on at night, didn't put a blanket over her or swaddle as her room was roasting.

    Our little fella has had a long sleeve vest on and v light jammie bottoms. He's hot but not roasting. I've been leaving the blackout blind in our room down during the day which keeps the room cool.
