    I was told that the ideal temp for little ones is from 70 to 74 and treat them as you would yourself. Like if you're a little chilled, they probably are as well. So layer them as you would yourself.

    Sounds good to me. :-) I generally keep mine with the onesie and swaddled too. She's been perfectly content. And our house ranges from 68-73.

    I have heard what you are wearing plus one layer... my little one loves to be 'hot' he sleeps in a onesie, swaddle and (I know, I know bad me) a blanket. If I dont give him his blanket he will keep waking up until he gets it.... lol.. he is 4 weeks old today.

    A nurse I had at the hospital told me 72. Our house is generally between 70-73. I live in TN so our falls are like that too. I've heard the rule of the amount of layers you have on plus one more.

    They aren't supposed to sleep with hats on

    My doc said anywhere between 68-70 and don't over dress.
