Thanks for sharing your insight! I def think im leaning towards warm footed pjs with a blanket tucked securely under the mattress so it can’t pose too much of a threat! But dressing in layers is also a great idea!!

I went through the same how-to-keep-baby-warm dilemma just a few months ago, so I’d love to offer you what worked for us. My little girl didn’t like her arms swaddled either, so I used arms-out swaddle blankets & the arms-in swaddlers wrapped below her underarms when she was little (2-5 months). As she got too big for those blankets, we doubled up her pjs to keep her core warm by placing a short or long sleeved onesie under her footed pajamas and socks too, if necessary. Any attempt at mittens was futile in our house, because baby pushed them off in an instant. She didn’t seem to mind chilly fingers as long as her body was kept warm, and it never caused her to awaken at night either. We still swaddled her a little with a blanket since it was part of the bedtime ritual, but knowing that she’d escape the blanket in no time. To be honest, I know the risk blankets can potentially cause, but since I generally checked on her once before I went to bed (removing the blanket sometimes or trying to re-cover her up) it never caused me much anxiety. Hope you find what works great for you!

Very exciting! Thanks for visiting! Swaddling will probably be your pick for those first few weeks 🙂 Best of luck!!

You have a lovely blog here. I’m due in just 3 days with my first baby, so I can let you know my preference in a few months. 😉 We do have a bunch of swaddling blankets and sleepsacks all ready for the little guy though.

I just came over from SITS girls. I’m about to be a first time mom in March (to a little boy) so knowing all these little tips in advance is really helpful!
