Review: Babyrug Summer Wrap

"Brilliant!"
We used this for our 2 month old son and we all loved it. It is made from 100% cotton with a satin trim and is very soft and lightweight. It is basically an all in one without arms, the body part fastens with velcro. You can have babies arms inside or out and it makes it very easy to transfer baby from cot to car seat/pushchair without waking them. more

Imagine a cross between a blanket and a pramsuit, and you’re starting to get your head around the Bug in a Rug. Billed as ‘Australia’s favourite way to wrap a baby’, it’s a hooded blanket with two little feet on the bottom, and wrap-around Velcro sides. more

Overheating and winter clothes

It's important to keep babies warm when you go out during cold spells, and you can read more about it in our Dressing Your Baby in Winter article, but it's also important to know when snuggly coats and blankets should come off.

Baby's temperature
Small babies can't regulate their own body heat as well as we can. Plus, when they do get hot or cold, they don't have the ability to add a layer or peel one off. Therefore, it's important to keep an eye on your baby's temperature.
You don't have to undress a baby to tell how they are doing. If you are lucky, you'll have one that cries when he's getting too hot - though some just fall asleep, which can be dangerous as you won't know if he is tired or passed out.
Don't judge a baby's heat by his toes or hands, these are usually colder that the rest of the body. Instead, place the back of your hand on his chest or the back of his neck. If these feel cool then you are fine, but if they feel very cold or too warm, act accordingly more

The concept:
If you love the idea of the comfort and protection that traditional swaddling brings - my Welsh grandmother was a big believer in it! - but you don't think you can whizz a regular blanket up into something effective, then the Bug In A Rug Summer Wrap is for you. more

The concept:
The Bug In A Rug has the reassuring presence of a snuggle blanket, with the fitted hood and feet of a baby's outdoor coat. It's a simple but versatile idea and it works really well. more
