How do I limit this?
My 10 month old wears a baby grow or pjs and a sleeveless 2.5 sleeping bag. His room is between 18-20 degrees throughout the night. But he always has freezing hands!

I don't think you need to, hands aren't a good measure of how warm they are and it's common for them to feel cooler without babe being uncomfortable
thanks for this. This makes me feel a lot less guilty. They can be like little ice blocks so it’s easy to assume they’re freezing!

I know everyone says it’s fine, because it is, but I hateeeeeeed the thought of it so, I’ve gone for fleece sleepsuits as the arms are just a little thicker than a normal sleepsuit, and then I’ve downgraded his bag to 1.5 tonight because the fleece and 2.5 tog was overkill, he’s been really sweaty. I also have a sleeping bag from next which has sleeves and is lovely and thick but it’s not quite cold enough for it yet - he was just sweating in it so it’s being saved for when the temperature really drops X

We've always been told that as long as their chest/neck/back is comfortably warm (and not clammy), then it doesn't matter about hands and feet 😊
awww thanks for this!! This is how I feel. I can’t stand it. I hate having cold hands and feet so I don’t want him to!
I was considering the long sleeve sleeping bags from next. I can’t wrap my head around how I’m sleeping in a big thick quilt and his own only 2.5
