Hiya
Happy new Year to all of you ladies first of all because I don't think I have posted once since the new year although I've been reading as many topics as I could
I have these questions:
For the first 3 months, what from your experience, is the better option for night time ? I was advised not to bother with either of them and use fleece sleep suits instead of cotton ones but I'm scared of overheating and not sure if they are suitable for newborns whereas sleeping bags (and dressing baby in vest and cotton sleep suit) seem to regulate baby's temperature better. And what about swaddling? Is it a better solution or is it claustrophobic for baby? Also, being so tightly wrapped, would he be able to turn over when he throws up ?
From 3 months on, it will be summer, so I'm only concerned about the first 3 months as regards the cold weather. Down here it's extremely hot in summer so I will cross that bridge when I get to it...
Thanks xxxxxxxxxxxx
