    AJC - you sound like you're doing a great job
    Most babies will let you know if they are hot or cold and they'll cry to let you know. I would probably just have singlet, nappy and a cotton wrap snuggly around him. And the aircon not too cold..... comfortable 24 degrees perhaps?
    Although i've read babies rooms can be 18 degrees and they are comfortable but that just seems too cold to me!!!?

    My DD sleeps with just a singlet (but the romper singlets so they dont ride up) and I put a blankie over her but she moves around so much she kicks it off, so generally its just the singlet for us for summer.

    DD#2 is in a long sleeved bodysuit and a light sleeping bag. When it gets really hot (like its supposed to over the next week here) she will have just the long sleeved bodysuit with a sheet over her. When it is very hot we have the aircon set at 26 but I still find that her little arms end up quite chilled from the cool air flow.

    With no aircon I would be putting her to bed in just a nappy and short sleeved bodysuit.

    Hey Georgi!
    We put Bianca in a singlet, and nappy on hot nights and than she is wrapped in a muslin wrap and a cotton sheet on top. Other nights she might where a one piece suit or a t-shirt.
    If little Byron isnt complaining than he must be comfortable with what u are doing! He will certainly let u know otherwise
