Swaddles / sleeping bags

I’m 34 weeks, first baby and have only bought the Love to Dream swaddle in 18-24°C, size small (8-13lb). Does anyone have any recommendations for what tog sleeping bags to get / where to get them from? I’m not keen on the wrap ones and would prefer the ones you can just zip up.

Id get 2.5tog ones for this time of year, it's quite easy to layer appropriately with them, whether you have a full sleepsuit or just a long sleeve vest on underneath extra! Also tommee tippee sleeping bags come with a guide of what to dress baby in depending on your room temperature! Id recommend the gro egg they do too!

I've found the gro egg a good little night light and then I know what temp the room is in to dress baby for xx

@Charlotte how would you put arms in for this one? x

They have little poppers on the arms, so you can either leave them popped shut and then have the babies arms inside like a swaddle or can unpop them and have their arms out, neither of my babies liked being swaddled so we always used the arms unpopped, but it's still a more snug fit than the normal sleeping bags so gives baby the cosy fit of a swaddle!

@Charlotte I had that and threw it. The temperature is not accurate at all. A lot of people said the same thing.
