Baby born in summer, what do I need?

When your baby is born in summer it might be difficult to find products that keep your baby warm and safe, but not too warm obviously. So, what breathable baby products do you need? We will give you some tips below

Summer sleeping bag

A summer sleeping bag is a true must-have item to give your baby a good sleep in the summer. A summer sleeping bag is made of breathable and airy cotton, which provides great comfort for your baby. In addition, the sleeping bags from Lodger remains soft on the skin, even after each wash. The zipper goes all to the bottom, so you can easily change the nappy of your baby without removing the whole sleeping bag. You can combine the sleeping bag summer with, for example, a bodysuit short sleeve or long sleeve. View all our summer sleeping bags here.

Bodysuits made of cotton

Shop multiple bodysuits with short and long sleeves. Long sleeves in summer? Yes! Newborn babies have difficulties with their temperature, so it is important to have both when your baby is too cold. Choose bodysuits made of natural materials like cotton. Cotton feels very soft and comfortable on the skin of your newborn. Besides, a wrap bodysuit is very easy to dress your newborn baby. In addition, there are extra pleats at the bottom for more space for the (full) nappy. So get those bodysuits!

Swaddle blankets and clips

Swaddle blankets are perfect for summer. Not only because they are absorbent, soft, and breathable. Also, you can use them in so many ways. Did you just bathe your baby? Even if it is summer, your baby gets cold easily, so immediately put a soft muslin swaddle around your baby. This swaddle is absorbing, allowing your baby to dry fast, and doesn’t get too cold. Are you going outside with your baby? Take a few swaddles and clips in your bag.
