How to choose baby sleep sack—my first baby and I have no idea, can you help?

I really understand your excitement with your first baby. When choosing a sleep sack, there are just a few basic points to watch:
Size and safety: The sack should fit baby's length perfectly—neither too loose (slipping risk) nor too tight. Arm holes should close snugly, and baby shouldn't slide down inside the sack.
TOG value (heat level): Sleep sacks have TOG values like 0.5, 1.0, 2.5 written on them. For summer 0.5–1.0 TOG (thin cotton) is better, for winter 2.5 TOG is better. You can adjust the balance by adding or removing layers under the sack based on room temperature.
Fabric and closure: Cotton or bamboo viscose fabrics breathe well. Zippered models are more practical for diaper changes; make sure the zipper has a protective piece of fabric at chin level.
Sleep sack is safer than a blanket because it doesn't slip off like one—you're on the right track. On your first purchase, choosing the size that fits baby's current weight is enough; there isn't much difference between brands.
