Thanks Zap

I live brissy area and it has been quite warm but it's been warmer than this and he has felt fine.. Humidity is fairly high tho.. Just being a paranoid mumma I think

i find the best way to see if bubs is hot is to feel their head with my cheek and not my hand!

If he's happy & not lethargic I wouldn't worry too much. It would be normal in this weather for his skin to feel warm but his actual body temp to be normal KWIM?
I tend to dress & wrap according to how their skin feels, so if he feels cool to touch then more layers, if he feels warm, then less.... his body temp tells you that everything's otherwise ok.

ETA - and like Olive said sometimes it's better not to use your hand, I use a kiss on the forehead

That's how I realised.. I tend to sneak a kiss when I check on him He still feels a little warm.. not as hot as before. But he was happy when he woke this morning. He is now back asleep on my bed with just a nappy on..

I kiss too. And I do exactly what FLeur said, but FWIW some kids are just hot kids. Both of my kids have a constant body temp of about 37.1...that's just what they operate at, yet very rarely do they feel 'hot'...it's so individual.
