How do you dress baby to sleep?

Question

My 13 month old no longer wants her sleep sac 😞 That’s kinda been my “comfort” because I know she has some sort of covering on her. So now I need to re evaluate how I dress her at night. Our temp stays around 73 in our room. I’m thinking long pants, short sleeves, no socks? Maybe socks? And a light blanket? 
Ugh. I’m not a fan of change 😂

Answer

We still fit in footed sleepers and that’s what she has always worn for bed. If it’s a hot day she will sleep in what she’s wearing (romper, sometimes just a diaper) but she likes to cuddle and has a very small stuffed doll that she sometimes cuddle to sleep. My second was always hot and slept in shorts and a short sleeved shirt, my oldest wanted blankets and got a thin one when he was 12 months. Every baby is different.

Answer

We keep our house 74°. I put him in pants and either a long sleeve or short sleeve shirt. Sometimes he wears footie pajamas instead. He has a blanket in his bed now but he won't stay under it. My 4 y/o and 3 y/o who do use blankets wear t shirts and undies or t-shirts and shorts to bed.

Answer

Our 13 month old is in long sleeves and pants every night with her room ranging from 74-78. Mins you the shirt and pants/jammies are just cotton, not fleece or anything.

Answer

Mine just sleeps in the onesie that she wore during the day. We bedshare, so we'll tuck her under the covers, but she'll usually kick them off.

Answer

We do the footed long sleeve pajamas with a short sleeve onesie underneath! She seems totally comfortable and our house is around 73 as well!

Answer

Mine sleeps in a footed cotton sleeper. We keep the house around 70.

Answer

We bed share, and have window a/c in our bedroom so it gets pretty chilly at night, like 65/68 degrees F. We like it cold, but I dress my son in cotton jammies, long sleeves and pants, no socks. Or I’ll do a cotton footie jammy. Then me and him share blankets on the bed. (A fleece throw and then a lightweight cotton quilt on top). I’d like to note that I only put the blankets on him from his belly down. Also, my son is a super hot sleeper. He has since he was born. If I dress him any warmer he will literally be waking all night with sweaty clothes. 
Honestly I’ll probably get loads of crap for doing it all “wrong” but it works for us.

Answer

We do pajamas (usually long pants and short sleeves), no socks, and a sleep sack. We live in a hot climate and our bedrooms are upstairs so we usually have the fan going.

Answer

Our son really doesn't like warmth. He's starting to dislike blankets too.
We have him in socks pyjama's at night because I'm scared he'll get cold when (not if) he squirms out of his blanket.

Answer

Both my 12 month old and my 2 year olds still wear a sleep sack I literally can’t imagine not having them in those. My 2 year old has a blanket in her crib but never uses it.
