The Anxiety of Raising a Hot Sleeper
Why Overheating Disrupts Sleep
Seeing your baby wake up in sweat puddles is stressful for any parent. Babies have developing internal thermometers, making them prone to rapid overheating. This often leads to heat rash, discomfort, and cut-short sleep during a critical summer nap.

Common Questions About Cooling Bedding
Find answers to frequently asked questions about managing hot sleepers and cooling bedding options.
Check their chest or back during sleep. If they feel hot or damp, or if you see flushed cheeks, they're likely overheating. A hot sleeper may also be restless during the night, kick off blankets frequently, or wake up with damp hair. Look for signs like sweat puddles on the sheet or clammy skin when you lift them.
Yes. Bamboo viscose is naturally smooth and reduces friction, making it ideal for sensitive newborn skin prone to heat rash or eczema. The fibres are hypoallergenic and gentle, with natural temperature-regulating properties that help prevent overheating without compromising safety or comfort for your little one.
Keep it simple. A short-sleeve bodysuit or just a nappy paired with a lightweight (0.2-0.5 TOG) swaddle is usually sufficient for room temperatures over 24°C. Remember, babies need only one more layer than adults. Overdressing increases overheating risk, so less is more during warm weather.
