Hiya,
A sleeping bag is a grobag, like a duvet for babies! They're much safer than having loose blankets in the cot, and much better b/c they can't be kicked off, and make baby cold at night (and call for Mummy :wink: ). Check this out:

There are cheaper versions on the market though, many stores do their own brand type.

HTH
Caroline :)

Oh yeah I have one of those, but havent used it since the swaddle. If it didnnt have the arms that could be the next step from getting rid of the swaddle.  :lol:

Hi gages mom

Mias sleeping bag doesn't have arms on it - it works really well on her.

I got mine at much reduced ££££ on Ebay. Just try a search in the baby section with the word 'Grobag'. They come in two different togs - 1 tog and 2.5 tog. Depending on the temperature of your house/baby's room, go for the lighter one or the more heavy one.
