Advantages: Keeps baby cosy all night long

Disadvantages: None!

I can't recommend a baby sleeping bag enough - they're fabulous! When my son was first born, I was constantly worried about how many blankets to put on him at night, what to dress him in: short sleeved vest, long sleeved vest, vest and sleep suit or just a sleep suit? It was a nightmare! When he got to about 3 months he'd started to wiggle around in his cot and continually got out from under his covers and woke up because he was cold - the answer? Sleeping bags! They come in various togs: 0.5 tog for really warm weather to 2.5 for really cold (in fact I think some shops sell 3 togs too). Along with this, all sleeping bags come with a handy chart to give you a guide as to what to dress your baby in with each tog sleeping bag for each temperature, i.e. if it's 17-21 degress and your baby is in a 1 tog sleeping bag, they may recommend the baby wearing either a short sleeved pj set or long sleeved vest, that sort of thing. But the best thing of all is that they are always cosy, whatever you dress them in and whatever the weather, as they can't wriggle out from under them. Also, as far as routine goes, as soon as my son sees his sleeping bag coming out he knows it's bed time - that goes for if we're out and about (they do travel ones that have holes for the car seat straps to go through) or at friends houses, once he's in his sleeping bag he's ready for bed - perfect!

Summary: Absolutely brilliant, we have ones in all different togs for all weathers!
