What Should Babies Sleep in Under a Sleep Sack? Tips for Parents
It’s a common question: "What should babies sleep in under a sleep sack?" Will they be too hot? Will they be too cold? We have a guide to help you ensure your babe is comfy and safe so you both (hopefully) get some shut eye.
Why Get a Sleep Sack?
Sleep sacks are a popular choice for ensuring a safe and comfortable sleep environment for babies and toddlers. These wearable blankets replace loose blankets in the crib, reducing the risk of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) and providing a secure and cozy atmosphere for your little one to rest peacefully. Check out our blog, What is a Sleep Sack and Do I Need One? A Guide for Parents for the full scoop on sleep sack benefits and how to choose the right one for you.
The Ideal Sleepwear Combination
When it comes to what your baby should wear under a sleep sack, safety is king and comfort is queen. Here are some tips to consider:
- The Right Fit for Safety: You’ll want sleepwear that is snug fitting without being too restrictive. Loose fitting pajamas can get bunched up causing discomfort and also potentially block their nose and mouth.
- Temperature Regulation: Opt for breathable fabrics like cotton or bamboo to help regulate your baby's body temperature and ensure a comfortable sleep environment.
- Comfort is Key: Choose sleepwear that is soft and gentle on your baby's delicate skin. Look for pajamas with flat seams to minimize irritation.
Our Top Pick: Bamboo Pajamas
Buckle Me Baby Coats bamboo pajamas for babies and toddlers are loved by so many parents for use under sleep sacks and beyond. Here’s why:
- Breathability: Bamboo fabric is known for its excellent breathability, helping regulate your baby's body temperature and ensuring a comfortable sleep throughout the night.
- Softness: The gentle and smooth texture of bamboo fabric is perfect for your baby's delicate skin, providing a cozy and irritation-free sleep experience.
- Hypoallergenic: Buckle Me Baby Coats bamboo pajamas are hypoallergenic, making them an ideal choice for babies with sensitive skin or allergies.

- Cozy Comfort: Choose between Cloud-soft microfleece or breathable bamboo for warmth that is just right.

I don't usually write reviews
But this is our 3rd winter with one of these coats, and they're a lifesaver. Slight learning curve when you first get one, but not having to take the coat on and off in the cold is worth it. It's also piece of mind that it won't fall off when driving or if in an accident (kiddo will be warm when waiting for first responders). We live in Chicago and the Toast is warm enough for quick errands and the Toasty is nicer for deep winter. We do have a larger parka coat if we spend more time outdoors.

Safest jacket for kids
I ordered a green toastier coat for my 1 year old. Now when I did receive it that there was a tear in the jacket. But customer service made it simple in easy to file a claim to receive another one which was great. I had 1 already for my son but it became to small. I love these coats though they make it easy to just buckle your child without removing the coat. As well it gives me the peace of mind knowing he is sitting safely in his car seat. Definitely would recommend and be riding another once this one get too small again.

This product is great. I was thinking about a coat for my grandson that he could wear in his car seat, and I was told about the Buckle Me Coats. It works great and keeps him warm.

Warm, convenient and love it
I work at the Turnpike and I get sick of seeing babies drug and just pajamas cause people don’t wanna waste time putting a coat on them. This is wonderful because I can wrap a baby in it. They’re still warm.

Warm
I was worried about how to keep my baby warm during the cold months in Ohio. I personally can warm up my car first but my sister cannot. I stumbled upon these coats and went back and forth. I bought a poncho and two other coats before I caved. I feel so much better that she is warm and safe in her car seat. I rarely write reviews, but this company offers 20% off for a review so if that tells you anything, I’ll be buying another one for next year-I wanted the discount.

Soft and warm
Just got the buckle me baby blanket the other day. It’s super soft and warm. I look forward to using it in the car seat and stroller to keep my little monster warm. I think I’m going to order a coat for her as well for those extra cold days!
