    baby sleeping bags used for naps too?

    For those of you who use baby sleeping bags, such as grobags,
    do you use them for all sleeps or just night sleeps?
    Are they a good sleep association tool for your bub?
    Thanks

    exactly - good sleep association - when they get zipped up or whatever, no matter where you are, that way they know it is sleep time.

    Yep, we use it for naps as well as overnight. The moment the sleeping bag comes out she knows it's time to hop into bed.

    we used them for all the sleeps at home. daycare refused to use thme, andhe slept just as well there. It also helped that when we stopped using the grobag he was just as used to sleeping with blankets.

    We use them for all sleeps - unless he falls asleep in the car & I transfer him to the cot without one. He knows grobag = sleep (he cries as soon as I get it out )

    We use them for all sleeps - he even insisted on sleeping in it on those really hot nights. I had to wait until he was asleep then unzip him so he wouldn't melt. I know if T is really tired because he claps when I get it out - so definiately a sleep association thing here .

    Only for night sleeps here. At the moment as it's quite warm he goes to sleep without it and we put him in it when we go to bed. He actually doesn't like to go to sleep in it...lol. He cries and carries on but without it just lays down.

    Yeah, until recently Natty was in a bag for all her sleeps. We only just stopped using the sleeping bag and she is 2.

    My DS usese them for both as he is a fan of cot acrobatics and can't sleep with a blanket. I haven't had a problem at all and he is nearly 2.
