CPW: Blanket

[aaemommy]

Yes. I always put a blanket in with him but it's not always the same one. I don't know if he naps with one at daycare or not- I honestly never thought to ask.

He doesn't have an attachment to any certain blanket. I also put a lovey in with him but he's not super attached to that either. The other day it was in the wash and he didn't protest.

[gratefulgirl]

Yes. We have one a+a Dream Blanket. I plan washing/drying it around nap and bedtime. She's still in a sleep sack underneath, but kid adores her blankets. She also always has a different blanket (fleece in winter, swaddle in summer) as a comfort object in the car.

[caybeh]

Yes. I have one that she lays on top of and then she has another one that I put on top of her. The one on top of her is one of her lovies and she drags it around the whole house.

[mrsnorris]

Nope. My little weirdo hates blankets. If you cover her when she's asleep she'll squirm right out from under the blanket. If she's awake she wants no part of it. I think she gets hot easily but she obviously also finds them constraining. I didn't know it was possible to dislike blankets but there you go.

DD has a blanket in her crib but she mostly sleeps on top of it or beside it, never under it.

[Deleted]

Yes! We can't go to bed without blankie!!

[vk]

No. DS does 360's all night and the blanket would probably end up covering his face.

[sosayweall]

We do sleepsacks but no blanket.

[gahorseygal]

Yes. DD loves the A+A swaddle blankets and she sleeps with those. Some nights it stays on her other times she bunches it under herself.

All of this... AC acts like blankets are molten hot lava that must not touch her. Even in her sleep she will wriggle her legs out.

I have a blankie girl. She loves them. I've been using blankets since she could roll. She hated sleep sacks.

He sleeps with one purely in the sense that it's there in his crib with him. He moves around too much in his sleep to actually cover him with it though--sometimes he'll totally ignore it, sometimes he plays peekaboo with it while he's trying to fall asleep, and sometimes he'll cuddle up with it.

Pretty much this. LO loves blankets!

Yes but more for my peace of mind that she is/could be warmer. I think she just wiggles around and doesn't use them.

Lately, I've been thinking about putting a pillow in with her. She's always laying on her blankets like a pillow when I get her in the morning.

We use a pillow and blankets.

+2, Once we pack up the fleece sleepers I hope she likes the blanket more.

[bobloblaw]

Nope. He won't keep one on so we just makes sure his room is a comfortable temperature and keep him in long pjs.

DD was doing that too so I sewed her a small pillow. She loves her little pillow.

#Notcrafty so I think I'm going to give her one of our older flat pillows. Just need to find a pillowcase

[Courtniko]

She sleeps with one at daycare when she is in a cot that keeps her snuggled. At home she moves around way too much to keep one on.

This is what I did. And I happened to sew shut a pillow case, just for caution.

LO sleeps with a little plastic spoon. Weirdo.

[silvermelody]

Still doing sleep sacks since he's pretty active and moves around a lot. Debating switching him over soon-ish

I have a toddler pillow from amazon. Perfect for littles. DD1 used it from almost 2 until 3. DD2 will get it whenever she can ask for a pillow.

[minervamae]

She's growing into the idea of one. She sees her sisters use them, so she wants one, but most of the time she immediately starts kicking until it's off. Sometimes she sleeps with one if it's just covering her torso.

[sweetpies]

Yes, he sleeps on top of his fleece sleepsack and sleeps beneath a crocheted blanket.

[2redtulips]

R. is still in a sleep sack. He moves so much that I am not sure a blanket would be effective.

[KMW08]

One pillow (no case) and two blankets. He usually holds one near his face or ends up on top of it, the other one covers him up.

He still moves around a lot in his sleep, so I have an infrared space heater that keeps his room warm since he often has both blankets off / no where near him by morning.

[hham10]

If I tried to put him in without he'd lose his shit. His blankie is Lovie.
