Baby sleep clothing?
⚡ Short answer: Safe common ground for baby sleep clothing: a single-layer body/pajama suited to room temperature plus a sleep sack, not a blanket, and making decisions by checking the back of baby's neck.

Baby sleep clothing? My mother-in-law says one thing, I read another.

Seeing different information from your mother-in-law about the same topic can really be confusing. It's not a disagreement—let's find the common ground.
There are two basic rules in baby sleep clothing: avoiding overheating and safety. Babies heat up and cool down faster than adults, so layered dressing is safest.
The general pediatric recommendation is like this: If room temperature is around 20-22°C, a single layer body/pajama is enough for baby, plus a sleep sack. A sleep sack is recommended instead of a blanket because a blanket risks covering the face. Check the back of baby's neck—if it's sweating, you've overdressed them.
What was the specific point your mother-in-law insisted on? Maybe she worried baby would get cold and wanted to add another layer. In that case, try checking their neck together; if baby isn't warm, there's no problem. Everyone's heart will be at ease.
