Do you put your baby in long sleeves onesis + pants or only onesis when using this sack? Thanks

I have done both depending on how warm/cold it is. When she was 5 months or younger, I generally went with long sleeves and footed pants. If there is perspiration at the back of her neck, reduce a layer. Hope that helps!

I find that if I put anything more than a onesie on my little girl, she tends to get hot overnight. We also keep a small ceramic heater in her room so it never drops below 70 degrees so if your baby's room tends to get cold, you might need a little more.

My daughter wore footed pajamas with it. It depends on the temp in the house.

it depends on the condition of the ruin she will sleep in ... we've have used long sleeved footie pj's, onsies, and a t shirt with pamper only ... just depends on how cold her room might get.

Just a long sleeve onesy. No pants....she may get too hot that way. The only variation we do is in choosing a heavy or light sleep sack depending on the temperature. Get a few of them, tangled blankets are a thing of the past so you know they are warm and safe.

We have put him in just a onesie and also in pants and onesie dependent on the weather. He sleeps better in a cool room so we do have the room on the cool side. This summer we did put him in the HALO sleepsack that was cotton and that worked well too. When he is zipped in, that is a signal for bedtime. We also do an early morning bottle and change in which we do not unzipp all the way so he stays sleepy. He will then sleep several more hours. Best of luck. We really like the HALOs.

Depends how cold you keep your house. I've used sleepers along with the sack and just short sleeve onesies.

I put them in various other clothes, totally depending on how warm or cold the room is going to be. Usually I would put my kids in the Carter's fleece pj's with the feet, no sack, for most of the year - temp around 70 (we live in SoCal). If it would be colder than 70 then I would use the Sleep Sack and a long sleeve onesie/pants or some cooler pj's. If it is going to be really cold then both the fleece jammies and the Sleep Sack. Just use your common sense!!

Yes. I have been using the small on my son since he was 6 months. The sleeves still are a long at 8 months, so I just roll them and the front of the bib covers him completely with room to spare.

It's not recommended for safety reasons. You don't want the sleep sack to go over the baby's face disrupting the flow of oxygen. If should fit properly.

We haven't had that problem at all, but we layer carefully under it. This winter, my son wore a onesie t-shirt, fleece one piece pjs, and the sleepsack. We've had him in the shirt and cotton pjs this spring. I could imagine moving him to t shirt only or cotton pjs only with the sleepsack when it gets warmer.

Yes, the suit can get a little hot. I put my daughter in the suit with just a diaper. Sometimes just a cotton onesie. She isn't too hot that way and sleeps great.

I am careful not to bundle up my daughter in a heavy onesie when we wear this. The two of us can generate some heat in the moby and we keep warm. It is breathable, stretchy and comfortable fabric but the closeness of the two of you could make your child overheat if you dress baby too much. The real trouble I have with the moby is the darn thing is so long that no matter how careful I am when I need to take it off, the ends always drag on the floor and that bothers me a lot. My friend uses a sling and she loves it. I also use other carriers and alternate but I do like the moby and would recommend. Hope this helps you and best wishes on your new child.

I use it year round- its a light cotton. I live in CT and keep my house at 67 degrees at night. I make sure my baby always wears long sleeves and pants to bed- this adds a touch of warmth. My feeling is fleece is too warm since it doesn't breathe but I think many use fleece in winter. I prefer a light "blanket" type covering so baby doesn't overheat.

The material is thin and breathable. My DD was born in May and we used it all through the summer. I usually dressed her in a short sleeved onesie.

Well, it's not a traditional wrap that you wrap in different carries (like front cross carry, or a ruck carry). It has attached rings that you thread the fabric through and cinche up to have a nice secure fit. There are tutorials on line. As for the size. You can get different sz depending on your body sz and your preference. Ie I am 5'4" woman at 135lb. I prefer sz med Bc I like having a bit longer tail (extra fabric) to drape over baby if it is sunny or misting outside or some coverage for breastfeeding. I hope that helps and Happy babywearing!

Yes! We use it constantly with our little guy. During the day for naps (sometimes he'll sleep with just a onesie or tee shirt and diaper underneath) and with short sleeve/ short pj sets at night. In really hot weather I'm anticipating we may just put him in the diaper and the sleep sack:) We love our sleep sacks!!

Go with Ergo or Boba. It will be more comfortable for both baby and wearer. Those two are very adjustable and also have extenders for bigger wearers.

Yes it is warmer but I haven't noticed my kiddos getting too hot in it...unless we end up co sleeping in the middle of the night. Usually when I use the sleep sack I don't do a blanket sleeper and then the fleece sack. I go for something a little thinner and lightweight and then the fleece. If I put a blanket sleeper on I just opt out of the sleep sack...or I just put a long sleeve onesie on under it all. Hope this helps!

It is indeed thick which is what helps keep them feeling snug similar to the swaddling effect. I've found that dressing my daughter in just a short-sleeve onesie and no socks and keeping the temp of the room btwn 69-70 degrees all winter has worked well and she doesn't get overheated. Heat escapes through the hand and feet openings, plus her neck is still exposed for ventilation. In fact, on very cold nights I added socks while she slept when her feet seemed too cold and was grateful she was cozy in the suit. We started her in the suit at 4 months old - she's now 6 months and has slept comfortably in it every single night!

We have the pink and black one. I was worried my baby would get too hot during the summers when it gets above 100 deg. It was great though...the material didn't absorb much heat like I thought it would. Our baby seemed to always stay cool in it.

Either or...I use the KerrBear diapers and they have the pockets where you can slide the insert inside. It's up to you...I put the clothe insert on top instead of inside more so because if you put the insert on the inside of the diaper then you'll have to change both the cloth diaper along with the insert. I put mine on the top because my babe does not always leak through to the cloth diaper, so I can keep the diaper on her longer...hopefully all this makes since.

If your baby cant roll over and sleeps on back yes. We loved ours. BUT once our baby could roll over in the suit (around 6 m) then we switched to the sleep sacks (the zip up sleeping bag looking sacks with no arms). Our 11m loves them and knows its sleep time when she getts zipped up.

I have 3 month old twins and used with my 3 and 4 yr old in chgo and put them in those fleece one piece jackets during colder temps and they were always warm. The sleepinh bag styles are reported not to be safe in an accident.
