Baby's Sleep

Babies need less sleep and sleep more at night. Some newborns may sleep for a total of around 8 hours a day, while others may sleep up to around 18 hours a day – either is perfectly normal. Baby generally sleeps 12 to 16 hours in 24 hours and do not know the difference between day and night.

Type of Baby's sleep items:

Baby winter sleeping bag

A baby sleeping bag prevents your little one from kicking off their cover or blanket and keeps your child at the right temperature all night long (see below for temperature guidance). Also, the soft and breathable jersey lining ensures an optimal sleeping temperature.

Reason Why you should buy this sleeping bag?

Here are 8 reasons why a sleeping bag might be right for your baby or toddler.

1. Baby sleeping bags are easy to use

When babies are young, sleeping bags are an easy option to use. Simply place your baby within the sleeping bag, secure them correctly, and place them in their cot, with just a fitted sheet underneath.

Although your baby's arms remain outside of the sleeping bag, their core body temperature will be maintained at the optimum level to ensure a restful night’s sleep.

2. Sleeping bags are available in different sizes & weights

Choose the perfect size sleeping bag to fit your baby or toddler, and the best weight suited for the time of year and climate where you live.

The sleeping bag will keep your child warm with less weight than sheets and blankets to restrict their movement and comfort.

3. No additional covers are required when you use a sleeping bag

Sleeping bags eliminate the problem of your baby or toddler kicking off their covers and becoming cold during the night.

They also enhance your baby or toddler's safety, as bedding has the potential to wrap around their airway. Your baby or toddler is safely held within their sleeping bag, so there is also no risk of getting their foot stuck between the bars of the cot.

4. Baby & toddler sleeping bags promote peaceful sleep

Your baby or toddler will quickly associate the sleeping bag with an enjoyable experience and a restful night's sleep, and this can help them to settle quickly.

As soon as they are placed within their sleeping bag they will feel secure and comfortable, and this will help them to settle and to achieve sleep rapidly, even when they're in a strange place.

5. Easy to transport your baby or toddler in a sleeping bag

Use the sleeping bag in your baby or toddler's car seat or buggy so that you can pass them straight from there to their cot or bed without disturbing their rest.

6. Soft sleeping bags are a natural choice

When looking for a sleeping bag, you can't go past a merino wool option. Merino wool sleeping bags have many benefits. They are super soft and will not cause skin irritation, even in babies with eczema or for those with skin conditions. Merino wool also breaths, so perspiration passes out and is absorbed into the air keeping your baby or toddler dry and comfortable.

The unique temperature regulating capacity of merino sleepwear keeps them at the perfect temperature, cool when the weather is hot, and warm when it's chilly.

7. Sleeping bags encourage faster growth

Studies have shown that babies' and toddlers' sleepwear made from merino wool helps them to settle for sleep quicker, they sleep for longer periods, they cry less frequently, they feed better and hence they put on weight faster. This can be particularly important for underweight or premature babies.

8. Sleeping bags make for happy families!

If your baby or toddler sleeps well, you will too, and this means that the whole family will be happier and healthier! Choosing the right sleepwear and bedding for your child is one of the best investments you can make for your whole family.

5 Reasons You Should Use a Baby Sleeping Bag

The American Academy of Paediatrics (AAP) recommends no loose bedding or blankets in a baby’s sleep environment. Effectively the baby sleeping bag removes a possible SIDs risk associated with using loose blankets – even cellular ones.

2. They keep baby warm and snug

Very often I find that parents are concerned about their baby being cold at night. A baby sleeping bag helps to tick that box of doubt. Effectively the wearable blanket stays with your baby as they move and the risk of them being kicked off or their lets getting cold is taken away.

There are different tog sleeping bags available across the brands so you can choose a weight that suits the weather that you are experiencing at that time.

I recommend using a 2.5 tog in winter and a 1 tog in summer! Bear in mind that I live in Ireland where the weather can be pretty grim all year round!

3. Helping to keep things nice and settled

I find the use of a sleeping bag means that any tending to the baby during the night is nice and settled. You are able to do everything while keeping them in their sleeping bag – even a nappy change! I do recommend however that if your baby requires changing at night you look to sleeping bags that zip at the bottom and up the side rather than up the front for easy access!

Keep them in their bag while feeding, settle them, and snuggle them – then back into their sleep environment, they go without any fuss.

4. Important part of a bedtime routine

Remember that consistency is key when it comes to helping a baby achieve your family's sleep goals. By including a sleeping bag in their sleep routine you are including a stepping stone that they will recognise and will give them the signals that sleep is coming.

For all of the reasons listed above! They tick a huge safe sleep box. They help keep your baby at the right temperature. They aid in keeping nighttime tending nice and settled and they can form an important part of a bedtime routine.
