This. Our rowhouse is set to 72 and it's 68 downstairs and 78 upstairs with the ceiling fans running. The heat doesn't bother my 1 year old and she's old enough that I'm not concerned about the safety issue, so she goes in anything from a long sleeved onesie to fleece footie pajamas. If she woke up sweaty, I would ditch the fleece, but the heavier layer is nice if she is hanging out downstairs in her pajamas before bed.

I'm the PP with the perpetually cold 14mo above. We know because he wakes up crying and won't go back to sleep for more than a few minutes until we finally try adding another fleece sleep sack. If your baby is sleeping fine, then I wouldn't worry about it.

His big sister never needed that much--and even now is perfectly happy in shorts/t-shirt under one or two fleece blankets in her bed. Totally depends on the kidl


We double up on fleece onies too. I can't find a good sleep sack for him now that he's no longer a baby. Sometimes I will put a long-sleeve shirt + fleece footie pj. Depends how cold it is. His room gets cold. Apparently, there's only 1 vent in the room. The second vent is capped.



We had this problem until I bought a Grobag sleep sack (it's warm, like a comforter). My almost 3 year old still wears it at night.

Same. Our thermostat is set to 68 but my kids' bedroom gets up to 72 even with the vent mostly shut.

I agree with PP. Cotton pants and long sleeve tops. You can also cover his feet in a comfortable loose cotton socks.

A temp of 68 at night sounds good. I would recommend using a humidifier in the room to make it more comfortable and less cold.


Static electricity is from too low of humidity, not the fleece.

What temp do you have their room/the house set at?
