Best ways to help cool down LO room at night please! Currently 28 degrees and just in a nappy.

Tired keeping the curtains shut during the day and windows open but it doesn’t seem to make any difference…

HEAT

How is everyone cooling their babies rooms down for naps / bedtime ?

We are struggling!

My baby’s room is currently 31 degrees I’ve had the blinds and curtains and window shut all day and only just opened the window to get some air in I have now put a fan in that blowing around the room it points onto her for a few seconds and blows straight back off on a low setting is this safe? Panicking 😩🤣

Sleeping in heatwave

When is everyone putting their babies to bed. I only ask because our bedroom egg thermometer is currently saying 30.3 degrees which is obviously far too hot for bub. We are camped out in the lounge with all the doors/windows open with fans on. I am also finding it difficult to get her to sleep because she is so used to being swaddled. Any tips or ideas?

Is so selfish to continue to have kids when you’re barely scraping by financially and mentally

My friend, just announced her pregnancy and she just had her third baby 8 months ago?! And she already has a one and two year old. She constantly vents about how things are so tight financially but “makes things work”. These kids end up suffering 😢I’m usually such a supportive friend, but this…. I can’t support. It’s low key making me not want to be friends with her. Coming from someone who is two and done, I recognized my limit and drew a line and overall I’m just tired of hearing her rant about how things are so tight financially and always venting about her marital problems and then continues to add to her stress. Reality has to set in some time!? Should I cut her off?

Gro Egg reliability???

It’s showing as 25 degrees in our bedroom again tonight, but our 5 week old won’t sleep in just a nappy so we put him in a vest and he was still upset so we added a sleep suit and he managed to sleep. But based on all the advice we’ve seen online this is the wrong amount of layers for the room temp. Beginning to think the gro egg isn’t accurate as we have been sleeping comfortably in thin pjs and a duvet with a fan by the bedroom door and window open (fan not near baby and doesn’t blow on him). I’m so stressed about it, is anyone else feeling the same?!

Sometimes I wish people would just listen to me…

Baby had vaccines on Friday we’d been giving Tylenol round the clock til Monday night he seemed like he was doing ok. At night we take turns staying with him (I’m not ready to leave him in his room yet) but he has been super clingy and fussy tonight and I mentioned twice he felt warm so hubby told me he just felt comfy. I asked hubby to take his temp while he was breastfeeding. It was normal 97.7 but I wasn’t convinced he felt too warm. So I took it again 99.7 I gave him more Tylenol but I feel like he’s been uncomfortable for hours because I didn’t trust my gut.
