I decided to have another go at putting Aliza in a grobag (baby sleeping bag) tonight. This time I left her in her sleepsuit, rather rthan the recommendation of just a long-sleeved bodysuit (onesie). It's only a 1.0 tog, and she normally has a doubled over sheet and then a blanket anyway.
This time she went right to sleep. :) yay! this is great since she kicks her covers off now.
Only annoying thing (small) is that of course I only bought 1 0-6 month one, and I don't really want to spend £24.50 on a 2nd that she'll grow out of quite quickly. So either she better not spit up at night, or she'll be back on the sheet and blanket ;-) She's moving to her full size cot next week (we've been using the carrycot from her pram temporarily--long story involving furniture moving! Good thing you can use the carrycot as a travel cot. See, the Bugaboo came in useful ;) ) so this will affect the amount of bedding we buy, too. She won't need as many top sheets/blankets if she's using grobags. (You still need a couple just in case, but you don't need so many.)
Now, if I could just fall asleep... :(
Oh, and I'll need to get a new icon shot of Her Maj tomorrow :)
