Sleep sacks are potentially the safest form of bedding for babies provided that baby is placed in the correct size sack and is wearing suitable sleepwear. It is a well-known fact that babies should be put to sleep on their backs, but not so well known are the potential dangers of loose bedding going over baby’s head and overheating by using too much bedding. The sleep sack will keep baby on it's back and will also keep baby's head uncovered, therefore reducing the risk of suffocation.
For a safe, warm and great night sleep!
We recommend that you wait using the sleeping bag till baby is over 10 lbs. in weight. (Generally speaking around 6-10 weeks) Please note: There is a certain amount of overlap in the sizing. The goal of a good fit in a sleep sack lies more in the chest and less in the length. The fitted neck and armholes ensure that there is no danger of either slipping in or out of the sack, provided the baby is placed in the correct size for his age/weight. All of our baby sleeping bags are long in length and have plenty of room for baby to “grow into”.
What should baby wear underneath the Sleep Sack? This depends on the type of Sleep Sack and the temperature of baby’s bedroom. Health professionals recommend that baby's room is approx. 18°C (65°F). If warmer or colder, simply adjust baby's clothing level, i.e. short or long sleeved bodysuit, pajamas, etc. (The same way as you would adjust your own night-clothes).
