What temperature should my baby's room be, how should I decide on his clothing?

The ideal temperature for baby's room is 20–22°C, and it shouldn't drop below 18°C at night. Using a thermometer is safest.

For dressing, here's a practical rule: if you're comfortable in a thin long-sleeved shirt plus a thin cardigan, then your baby needs one layer more — a bodysuit plus pajamas plus a lightweight sleep sack or blanket. Check the back of his neck: if it's warm and dry, that's right; if he's sweating, remove one layer; if it's cool, add one layer. His hands and feet may feel cool — don't base decisions on those.

If it's below 20°C at night, use a sleep sack instead. If using a blanket, tuck it up to his waist and position your baby with his feet at the bottom of the crib — for safe sleep.
