Most of the Babygros have the fold over scratch mitts. Do you use these or leave their fingers free?
Just curious!

We leave his hands free. He tends to be a warm baby so mittens or the fold over jammies annoy him. He loved a swaddle when he was a newborn but somehow he would manage to wiggle one hand or arm out. I called him baby Houdini 🤣

We leave them free. We noted our baby was getting frustrated with them over and angry ‘with his hands’ turns out he’s a thumb sucker and wanted his little thumb to soothe xx

Mine puts her whole fist in her mouth if they’re free, or sucks the sleeve if we cover them 😂

We’ve always left them free. She hates not having hee hands out

I cover my little ones because he’s absolutely obsessed with his hands at the min and will stay awake for so long playing and shoving them in his mouth

I cover mine cause whenever she has them free and she wakes in the night for a feed I always notice her hands are freezing if they are left out - the rest of her is warm and she doesn't seem bothered by it but it makes me feel terrible!

We leave them free - he gets so grumpy when his hands are covered 🫣😂 x

I cover mine cos he always manages to scratch himself in the night 😵💫

also same 😂

I've just started covering mine because he rubs his face so vigorously when he's tired

Cover because they're freezing if I leave them out

When she's cold i use them. But tbh even though its got colder i think they are better at regulating their body temperature. I haven't had to cover them for a few weeks.

We cover as she pulls at her face when she’s tired and those pesky nails she always manages to scratch herself or poke herself in the eye 😂
