Wool or fleece baby cooling suit?
While some swear by wool, others are happy with fleece. It can be hard to decide what's the best sleepsuit for baby. That's why we've written a bit about what to look for.
Wool sweater: Joha or Mikk-line
A wool sleepsuit is often a bit expensive. The price is between 4 and 500 DKK. The most popular woollen sleepsuits are from Joha and Mikk-line. Wool regulates the temperature so baby doesn't get too cold or too hot. In addition, wool is wonderfully soft and a natural material. Wool should be washed on a delicate cycle with wool soap.
A Joha sleepsuit is easy to put on your baby, because of the two zippers. Many sleepsuits have only one zip, but with this one it's possible to open the suit all the way and get baby inside. At the same time, the suit has cuffs at the hands and feet, which makes it really practical. So little hands and feet are kept nice and warm.
Fleece cold suit
Fleece is nice and warm, and therefore a good choice for baby's sleepsuit. A fleece sleepsuit is often slightly cheaper than a wool one, as it is a synthetic material and therefore cheaper to produce. A fleece suit is good for children who have very sensitive and itchy skin, as wool can sometimes be itchy on sensitive skin.
The sleepsuit shown is in fleece, and is great as an extra layer on top of baby's clothes. It is made by Celavi, and costs only DKK 164.
Get answers to your questions about sleep suits
Here we've answered the most common questions asked about cooling suits.
What is a driving suit?
A baby sleepsuit is a warm sleepsuit that baby can be put into when she is sleeping in the pram or pushchair. A sleepsuit is very easy to put on and take off again. It is a suit with both arms and legs, which also makes the suit warm as it does not split in the middle.
The cooling suit is used to put on baby on top of the clothes, so that it cools as an extra layer.
Cold suit - when?
Yes, when do you use a driving suit? Age-wise, you can use the sleepsuit from day 1. When it's cold and baby is going to sleep in the pram or you're going for a walk, the sleepsuit is a really good idea.
Otherwise, the baby sleepsuit is useful in these situations:
- In a pram or pushchair
- In the car seat (and to and from the car)
- In a carrier or wrap
- For naptime in the nursery or daycare
- Under the rainwear
What driving suit?
It can be hard to choose which jumpsuit. It's important to consider whether it will be used only for sleeping or will also serve as a kind of outerwear. In this case, it is most practical to choose a transitional suit. You will find examples of these further up in the text.
What size?
We recommend that you always choose a sleepsuit 1 - 2 sizes larger than baby is currently wearing. Firstly, it doesn't matter if baby doesn't fill the suit up completely, as it will still be nice and warm. Secondly, it would be a shame if baby could only use his expensive sleepsuit for a few months. Start with a size 68, rather than the very small sizes 50-56.
