Newborn sleepwear in winter?

You're right OrkneyStar re sleeping bags. There is a minimum weight a baby should be before being able to use one but I don't remember what the limit is. My LO was in a short sleeve vest, sleepsuit and under two layers of cellular blanket when he was born. But that was in July.

Mine are nearly 13 and nearly 10 now, but I recall being told to distinguish betwen daytime naps and night-time sleeps. So day-time was downstairs, curtains left open and background noise and night-time was upstairs, curtains closed and quiet, if that is the issue.

Are you taking his jumper off shortly before going to bed? When I take my coat, cardi/jumper off and exchange for 1 less layer on my arms, I can certainly feel the different drop of warmth for a while. I had knitted some cardis that didn't have buttons, that could be used at night-time if needed to.

How did you get on with his sleeping last night?

It is usually cold at the moment. None of my children liked being cold either. Use what blankets/clothes you think best.
