Tommee Tippee Baby Sleeping Bag with Legs, The Original Grobag Steppee, Baby Romper Suit, Soft Cotton-Rich Fabric, 6-18m, 1.0 Tog, Ollie Dreams

Product Information

The fabric of the Grobag is top notch – not only is it soft and snuggly but it washes incredibly well and doesn’t get that lumpy effect that other, slightly cheaper, sleeping bags tend to suffer from. By far the most-recommended baby sleeping bag in the Mumsnet forums, we think it’s the best all-rounder out there. With legs and booties, the JoJo Maman Bebe Sleep Snuggler looks a little different to the other sleeping bags on our list, and that extra snugness makes it the cosiest around. If your child gets frustrated having their feet in a sleeping bag, this could be the one for you. Definitely Asda. Cheap, nice patterns and feel so comfortable (I'd like one myself!). They came top in tests conducted for safety too." (Recommended by Mumsnetter DaisyF1986) Our verdict

Shoulder poppers are another helpful feature for dressing and undressing. Almost all sleeping bags should have under-arm poppers to ensure a good, secure fit for a smaller baby. Some, such as the SnüzPouch, might have an extra zip at the front for changing a nappy without having to remove the bag. 4. Washing instructions There are plenty of baby sleeping bags specifically designed for newborns – the ErgoPouch Cocoon Swaddle Bag, for example, which won our Best for Newborns award. tog - This tog is for hot weather when your baby needs just the thinnest of cover-ups. Designed to be used in room temperatures of 25 degrees celsius or above. It’s very important that your baby does not overheat at night, so read the manufacturer’s instructions carefully about the tog rating.

Stretchy, comfortable and surprisingly affordable, this beautiful swaddle converts to an arms-out sleeping bag once a child becomes more mobile, which is perfect for brand-new babies. Both organic cotton and bamboo viscose are eco-friendly and hypoallergenic. Best of all, poppers on each side can be opened to convert the Cocoon Swaddle Bag to a sleeping bag. ErgoPouch recommend doing this as soon as your baby can roll, but this is a great bit of flexibility that may come in handy if your baby suddenly decides they prefer their arms unencumbered, and it’s not one we saw in any other product. Fabric: Merino wool, bamboo and cotton | Sizes: Newborn-2 years | Tog: All season (0.7-2.4) / Superwarm (2.5-3.5) What we love We've always used JoJo Maman Bebe ones and they're brilliant, wash well, are comfortable and they last." (Recommended by Mumsnetter MummyDummyNow) Made from soft, fluorescent-free 100% cotton-rich jersey fabric with Aloekind™ breathable mesh panels which are infused with naturally soothing Aloe Vera.

We have the super love merino ones which are also 0-2. They are much thinner than usual ones so not bulky. They have poppers under arms to use when small so they can’t slip down. Ds started using around 3-4 months and they seems comically long, but after a month is so seemed to fit perfect. He’s still using now at 1 year and they feel lovely and soft still. They still have growing room." (Recommended by Mumsnetter Caspianberg) Our verdictBabies being babies, their sleeping bag will probably need washing regularly. A product that is machine washable is a must, and it’s also helpful if it can be tumble dried and ironed. 5. Travel features Our All-Season sleepbag has been designed for arms out sleeping and should not be used as a swaddle. The poppers on the armholes (0-6m only) allow for fit adjustment for smaller babies to ensure a perfect fit, to keep baby safe and comfortable. Our sleepbags are slim fitting through the chest to enable full freedom of movement without restriction or excess bulk with a roomy, hip-healthy bottom. Our Steppeebags have been designed to be snug up top and wriggly down below - slim fitting through the chest to enable full freedom of movement without restriction or excess bulk with a roomy, hip-healthy bottom to allow your baby to adopt a natural “frog-legged” sleeping position, which is important for correct hip development. Sleep, temperature, and comfort are closely intertwined, and behaviours geared towards creating a comfortable sleep environment are present in all mammals – from the little mouse curling up in its burrow to the person buying bedding for their home. If we can keep baby at a nice and comfy temperature throughout the night, we can avoid any unnecessary wake ups due to them being too hot or too cold. Providing your child with a comfortable sleep environment is one of the best things you can do, to help your baby sleep better and for longer, night after night.

3. Best baby sleeping bag for winter - JoJo Maman Bebe Sleep Snuggler

Designed to be halfway between a traditional sleeping bag and ordinary nightwear, a baby sleeping bag is, essentially, a fabric vest (with or without sleeves, depending on the brand) that ends in a wide, cosy bag for the legs.

We took all the baby sleeping bags that came most highly recommended by consumers and parents to draw up a shortlist of 20 products and then narrowed it down to the nine you see here, which we think offer enough choice for every family. Why you should trust usAnother vote for Slumbersac. They are great - we have several for our toddler." (Tried and tested by Mumsnet user Elune) Our verdict It’s easy to see why – using a baby sleeping bag means you don’t have to worry about how much bedding to use, it keeps the baby contained and warm all night (no matter how much they wriggle), and is much easier to carry around out of the house than a pile of blankets. Fabric: Cotton and elastane | Sizes: 6-18 months, 18-36 months | Tog: 0.2, 1 & 2.5 available What we love It’s entirely possible, therefore, that you might buy more than one bag for different weather conditions – or you might decide to buy a lightweight model and put your baby in warmer nightwear underneath during the winter or choose a multi-season sleeping bag, such as the JoJo Maman Bebe Sleep Snuggler or the Superlove Merino. The results are in, and The Original Grobag is the best baby sleeping bag for 2023. It’s cosy, cleverly designed and washes really well - plus it’s got the Lullaby Trust stamp of approval. The original and still the best, we think the Grobag is the best baby sleeping bag to buy. How we chose our recommendations
