Layering for warmth

To keep warm, a child may need to wear layers. Layering is the most effective way of keeping your child warm. In our house we have floorboards and no carpet so it can get very cold here.
I truly believe natural fibres are best ie. wool and cotton.
A good rule of thumb is if you are chilly, then baby will be too. When going out, baby will benefit from an extra layer.
This is what my 9mth old baby wears, for an example, singlet, long sleeved bodysuit, long sleeved top and pants with padders or socks. When we go out, I will put a jacket on him plus a blanket, if we are going in the pram. The car tends to be warmer, and there overheating can be a concern (another article)
