Long babies

My baby is on 98th percentile for length he was 3 months old on the 27th he’s 66cm and he now doesn’t fit in his sleep bags… they’re 0-6 I looked in Next, Primark and Asda but can’t find a 6-12 months sleep sack apart from 2.5 tog. My baby hates having a blanket on he always kicks it off in the night but he likes his sacks. Has anyone had the same issue with long babies? Is there any alternatives? He also has long feet so sleepsuits are a pain he’s in 3-6 months clothes now because he’s so long. Picture of him on his 3 months “birthday” or whatever you call it 😂 x

I’m not sure if you can order these since I am in the US- but our long girl uses halo sleep sack- 6-12 months!

My baby is on 91st centile for height and we use these ones. They do 6-18 months 1 tog. Hope that helps! https://www.tommeetippee.com/en-gb/shop/sleeping/sleepwear/sleep-bag

Same issue I ordered mine off Amazon they do 1/1.5/0.5 tog for 6-12 months my LO is 16 weeks and very long in 3-6 clothes xx

Try Vinted usually great for stuff like that

We use sleeping bags from the Ewan the sheep brand. They are 3-12 months

My baby girl is exactly the same! You can find 1.5 tog on both Matalan and George website. We have ordered ours for collection. I’m also going down the root of footless sleepsuits. I find Next and George clothes are the best fit for her.

Amazon! Matalan, Tu clothing and even Argos may stock some tu clothing, try online you’ll have better luck, went through the same, it’s a pain x

I just got one from M&S today… they do 6-18months :)

We have a long baby (now 22months) If you’re uk then we got some Mori ones- they are expensive but they roll up at the bottom so he’s been in them since 4months and still in it now. So personally I feel it was worth the money. Also have some H&M ones which come up really long (their clothes are great for long babies too I’ve found). We also had some gro bag ones from my SIL who lived in the US when her little ones were small and they are great. He’s still in these now. 1 tog ones.

Mine was 2ft at birth and wearing 12-18m at 4 months. He’s 3 now with size 10.5 feet. He wears 5-6. I gave up on sleep bags and just used a thin cot quilt as it didn’t get tangled. Not that he ever feckin slept 🤦🏻‍♀️😂
