I am 8 months pregnant and am unsure on what to do with bedding when my baby arrives.
I have a sleeper (the sleeping bag thing), but it's sleveless and my mom said that theyre supposed to be unsafe b/c the baby can over heat.
And i also worry about blankets covering my babys head in the night!
What does everyone else use?

I put mine in a cradle and since he's started moving around more, now he dosn't sleep with any blanket anymore. I wrap him with a flannel blanket cuz he likes that and sleeps better. He wears a sleeper underneath and he gets wraped and that's it. No blanket on top as I have the same concern as you do. I wouldn't want him to sufficate. Hope this helps you out.

a blanket over top of him wont hurt him, but make sure to put it below his arm pits. if he becomes active and moves around alot at night then i would suggest the same this Maureen has done. GL
