Sleep sack or blanket?

Question

Before anyone comments I know it’s recommended that babies don’t sleep with blankets until at least 12 months of age, however, we’ve let  our little one sleep with a blanket during nap time (we are awake and have a video monitor) and use the sleep sack at night. She is currently outgrowing her sleep sack and I’m wondering if it’s really necessary to get a bigger one or if other moms out there have been using blankets. She is 6 months and can  roll from her back to stomach and stomach to back. Are any moms out there using blankets or is everyone else using sleep sacks too?

Answer

My son is 20 months as we still use sleep sacks. Honestly I plan on using them until they no longer make one that fits him😂😂.  It gives me piece of mind that he can’t try to climb out of his bed.. he can’t lift his legs while in it... and I feel better knowing he has something covering him at all times.  He has a blanket in his crib as well, and it’s hardly ever on him... he moves too much.

Answer

I wouldnt risk it honestly, my son didnt get a blanket until 15 months, and also never used a sleep sack 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

Is the risk of baby suffocating worth a blanket? Even if they can roll every which way it is NOT recommended.

Answer

Try Woolino sleep sacks. My son is in the 99+ percentile for height at 2 years old and he still fits very well in them. They have a 2month-2 year size and also a 2 year-4 year size. We just moved him up to the 2-4 year size and he has plenty of room to grow so we plan on using them for at least another 6 months, or until he clearly prefers a regular blanket.

I have used a blanket in my baby since she was born she hated the sleep sacks and would cry non stop in them she also has a very low body temperature so I usually do a sleeper with a blanket never had an issue she’s 6 months now and the blanket has never gone above her belly/ chest area and her arms are always out of it which she normally sleeps with her arms above her head anyways
