    On hot nights I just dress my DD in a nappy and singlet and wrap her (in a cot sheet). I also have a fan going in her room.

    If your baby needs to be swaddled, just wrap them naked in a thin Muslin. (I got a pack of two from Big W, they are very thin)
    There are also sleeping bags, I had one but it had no sleeves so DD hated it, she needed to be completely swaddled.
    New babies sleep better swaddled, so the shock reflex doesn't keep waking them.

    i would just put DD in a nappy and singlet and in a muslin wrap, but my DD didnt get wrapped, so id just put her in a suit that has no legs but long arms.

    I put Anelise in a nappy, singlet and into her woombie, which has been the best thing we have ever bought.

    Google it. Anelise loves to be wrapped, but because she is so long and most of the wraps we've got are smaller, she gets out of them. She can't get out of the woombie and sleeps so well in it as she is covered but not restricted.
