Sleep is one of the most important parts of a baby’s development. The right sleepwear can make nights safer and more restful—for both baby and parents.
Breathability is Key
Overheating is a known risk factor for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Breathable fabrics like cotton and bamboo regulate temperature and reduce overheating risks.
Skip the Loose Blankets
Loose bedding can cover a baby’s face and interfere with safe sleep. Instead, opt for wearable sleep sacks or zip-up sleepers made from breathable fabrics.
Fit Matters
Clothes that are too tight can restrict movement and cause discomfort, while overly loose clothing can bunch up and pose a hazard. Choose sleepwear with a snug—but not restrictive—fit.
Flame Retardants: Why to Avoid Them
In the past, baby pajamas were often treated with flame retardants, many of which are now linked to health risks. Choose naturally flame-resistant fabrics like cotton instead.
Layers Over Heat
Instead of thick, heavy pajamas, dress your baby in light, breathable layers that can be adjusted as needed.
