Hi
Does anyone else's LO always end up squished at the top of the cot , sideways, with no blankets on? No matter how much i tuck him in Matthew (23m) is always blankets-less when i check on him at 10ish. It doesn't seem to bother him tho!!

I know the feeling!! LO managed to figure out how to undo the zip on his sleeping bag so we got a duvet and blanket for him, which ends up squashed to the bottom of the cot. I've given up and bought him a fleece all in one sleepsuit which seems to keep him warm!!

Kara has been like that since she was born. As soon as I leave the room from tucking her in she kicks the covers off. She doesn't seem to feel the cold at all and it doesn't bother her. She has a comfort blanket that she hugs whilst sleeping so that obviously is enough for her. I even tried a sleeping bag when she was young but she didnt like having her feet covered. Even if I put socks on her they are pulled off at night as well. I have just given up with all that now as it dosn't bother her because if it did she wouldn't sleep.

Hi Leo is the same he wriggles up and the blankets are at the bottom, tried the sleeping bag but he hated it when he was little and tried the fleece grows but he hated them aswell ran around trying to pull the feet off lol and socks well we put them on but when i go in for him its hunt the sock as he throws them round the room. It does'nt seem to bother him though i just turn his radiator up in his room so he is ok.

Isaac is the same, never in the same position I put him down in, he is still using sleeping bags though so he always has his covers on. I was thinking that maybe in the next month or so I should be putting him in a big bed but I dont want to, that would mean hes not a baby any more, he will be a big boy.

I know about the getting out bit, thats why Isaac is still in a cot lol. My eldest we put into a big bed at the age of 20 months and every morning a 5 am he would get out and come into our bed, trouble is he didnt want to go back to sleep he wanted to play. Think I may leave Isaac in his cot till he's 18 :lol:
