New build green house

My little girls bedroom gets the sun from around 4pm until sun set and it is literally a sauna in there. I have blinds, curtains doubled up with blackout curtains. In the morning I open her windows as it is shady on that side of the house and let the air ventilate, around 1pm I shut her windows blinds and curtains and leave my bedroom windows open to let the air blow through but I don't know what else to do. It is currently 27 degrees in her room, I'm still so paranoid about her over heating and she refuses to sleep unless she's in a sleeping bag. Fan seems to circulate the hot air and I'm sure I read somewhere that air con is bad for babies - i know she is now classed as a toddler but she's still so young. I'm at a loss and don't know what to do, does anyone have any tips please?

I'd maybe sleep her in just a nappy in the sleeping bag? This is what we did last year when our room was 26-27 degrees! Before you go to bed check the room temp again, and perhaps leave her door open?

@Alix that's what I've done, last year she was fine and would sleep in just her nappy but it's a never ending battle trying to get her to sleep without her bag now, I think it's her form of comfort đŸ„ș got her in her nappy and bag but feel so anxious 😱

Same here, 27 degrees and don’t know what to do đŸ„č

Attach frozen ice lolly’s to front of fan and leave it on in her room for couple of hours before she goes up to bed and it should help cool the room down abit xx

We're in the same situation, her room gets sun all afternoon. I open her door once it's dark to get some fresher air in and then shut it before we go to bed so it's not as bad. That's all you can really do we've got her in a 1 tog bag and a nappy too x

I think am air con is fine as long as it isn't blasting cold air onto them and maybe if you either turn it off when you go tonsleep or have it set to turn off when it cools to a certain temp

Literally could have written this post!!! Same set up and only a sky light window meaning I can't open it when she's in bed. Hers is 27, degrees I've just got her in a nappy and a 1 tog sleep sack. I think I'll hunt for some 0.5togs cause like your LO she wouldn't sleep without one. I also worry about her getting thirsty đŸ„ș
