Well now it is getting a bit more chilly i was thinking of getting some thicker bedding for Lily as her duvet is only 4 tog. I went in mothercare and they said they dont do a higher tog for cot bed as it is dangerous and baby will overheat??? Erm what do you think? Surely i cant leave her just with 4 tog as she willl get really cold. If she were in a singhle bed they do a 10.5 tog duvet Am confused!!

Glad you asked this question Kate, will wait for replies xx

I think maybe cos they are in a smaller/confined area maybe where as a larger/single bed, their is more room for the air to circulate etc. Like sleeping bags only go to a 2.5 tog. Maybe i'm talking a load of bull lol, anyway i'm sure they do higher tog cot bed covers, I think Debs mentioned it a while back..might be a 9tog (think that maybe for when the cots on bed mode)
9 TOG DUVET

I got Thomas this one Kate:

Both my kids like to be super warm and snuggly and whinge if they get a draft .

Izzys 4.5 tog is really thin, I wouldn't want her in just that - she will have that plus her patchwork quilt which is also 4.5

I have never gone with what they say - she has always had 2 blankets more than they say - otherwise she isn't warm.

We moved Aimee to her bed and she has a single duvet which is 10.5 tog. She doesnt over heat and she is all snug and warm xx

Thanks ladies - Deb that duvet is a bargain - will deffo get one, thanks xx
