About this deal

It’s very important that your baby does not overheat at night, so read the manufacturer’s instructions carefully about the tog rating. The Jojo Maman ones which are like little padded suits are fantastic if you have a wriggler or baby who likes to walk in their sleeping bag. Really handy for the car as well. Bonus points for how comical the baby looks when they're walking around like a tiny Michelin man." (Tried and tested by Mumsnet user TerribleCustomerCervix) Our verdict Grobags look undeniably premium but it’s their safety credentials which are truly impressive. Grobags have the Lullaby Trust seal of approval and were the inspiration for the current British safety guidelines. The company's side zip bag is its most popular and it’s not hard to see why. It’s designed to make night-time nappy changes easier and is perfect for young babies who have outgrown their swaddle. With legs and booties, the JoJo Maman Bebe Sleep Snuggler looks a little different to the other sleeping bags on our list, and that extra snugness makes it the cosiest around. If your child gets frustrated having their feet in a sleeping bag, this could be the one for you. A baby sleeping bag is much less of a suffocation risk than a blanket, but still needs to be used carefully to promote a safe environment for sleeping.

When it comes to the fabric from which it’s made, the best sleeping bag for a baby will be breathable, preferably hypoallergenic, and soft and gentle on their delicate skin. Organic soft cotton or bamboo are good options. In addition, a sleeping bag that’s easy to clean, preferably machine washable and also tumble dryer-safe, will spare you the hassle of hand-washing it when it inevitably gets dirty. Closing We had a dinky baby. The snuz sleeping bags have poppers on the side to make them a bit more snug for the littler babies. Helped us, also meant we didn’t have to buy hundreds." (Recommended by Mumsnet user rosed1008) Our verdict Both organic cotton and bamboo viscose are eco-friendly and hypoallergenic. Best of all, poppers on each side can be opened to convert the Cocoon Swaddle Bag to a sleeping bag. ErgoPouch recommend doing this as soon as your baby can roll, but this is a great bit of flexibility that may come in handy if your baby suddenly decides they prefer their arms unencumbered, and it’s not one we saw in any other product.

Do I need a baby sleeping bag?

It’s easy to see why – using a baby sleeping bag means you don’t have to worry about how much bedding to use, it keeps the baby contained and warm all night (no matter how much they wriggle), and is much easier to carry around out of the house than a pile of blankets. Enter baby sleeping bags, which promise to offer a way to keep your baby covered while they sleep through the night (wishful thinking), and to give you some peace of mind. That being said, there’s been plenty of discussion around the safety of baby sleeping bags. How can you make sure that your baby is warm enough, but not too warm, in a baby sleeping bag? What about the risk of them accidentally wriggling down into their sleeping bag? As is the case with duvets, the warmth of a baby sleeping bag is measured in togs – a unit of thermal insulation or resistance. Below is an approximate guide of which tog is appropriate for a baby at various temperatures: Before we began researching the best baby sleeping bags, we first scrutinised the latest safe sleep advice from trusted organisations such as The Lullaby Trust, the NCT and the NHS so we could be confident that all the cots we were recommending were safe.

With a variety of styles, functions and price points now available, which sleeping bags fulfil their promise of a peaceful night's sleep? Keep reading to find out which ones impressed us most. Sleeping bags come in sizes with recommended age ranges. If the range is only a few months (a 0-6 month size, for example), think about what season it will be in a few months’ time – will your tog rating match that season and will you get enough wear out of it in that time?The fabric of the Grobag is top notch – not only is it soft and snuggly but it washes incredibly well and doesn’t get that lumpy effect that other, slightly cheaper, sleeping bags tend to suffer from. By far the most-recommended baby sleeping bag in the Mumsnet forums, we think it’s the best all-rounder out there. Bringing a new baby home comes with a whole set of concerns, not least of which is whether your newborn is comfortable, warm and safe under their baby blanket. Unless the blanket is somehow solidly wedged into the side of their cot, it’s unlikely to stay in place – what with the little flailing arms and legs – and you won’t be able to look away for even a second before it’s time to readjust the blanket again. This one’s made from soft and stretchy cotton jersey and has a cute star print. As well as the nappy changing zip, there’s a zip at the side for getting your baby in and out of the sleeping bag with ease.Mumsnetters really rate Snuz products, which appear in our guides to the best moses baskets as well as the best cot beds. We took all the baby sleeping bags that came most highly recommended by consumers and parents to draw up a shortlist of 20 products and then narrowed it down to the nine you see here, which we think offer enough choice for every family. Why you should trust us Fabric: Merino wool, bamboo and cotton | Sizes: Newborn-2 years | Tog: All season (0.7-2.4) / Superwarm (2.5-3.5) What we love

If you’re unsure about the level of warmth, material, fit or closure to look for in a baby sleeping bag, our brief guide will point you in the right direction. Fit Key specs – Material: 30% organic cotton, 70% bamboo; Tog: 0.5; Closing: Zip, side shoulder opening, armhole poppers; Sizes: From 8-9lbs to 24 months; Washing instructions: Machine wash at 30°C Another vote for Slumbersac. They are great - we have several for our toddler." (Tried and tested by Mumsnet user Elune) Our verdict We've always used JoJo Maman Bebe ones and they're brilliant, wash well, are comfortable and they last." (Recommended by Mumsnetter MummyDummyNow) Little spillages can be sponged off, but it’s likely that your baby sleeping bag will need machine washing regularly. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions about washing temperatures and tumble drying.

6. Best sleeping bag for newborns - Ergopouch Cocoon Swaddle Bag

Almost all brands will state whether they comply with the safety standard in the accompanying instructions. If it’s not mentioned, you can follow up with their Customer Service department. Stretchy, comfortable and surprisingly affordable, this beautiful swaddle converts to an arms-out sleeping bag once a child becomes more mobile, which is perfect for brand-new babies. Definitely Asda. Cheap, nice patterns and feel so comfortable (I'd like one myself!). They came top in tests conducted for safety too." (Recommended by Mumsnetter DaisyF1986) Our verdict

Superlove baby sleeping bags come in at the top end of the price scale, but they feature such gorgeous Merino wool, they are totally worth investing in if you have the cash to splash. In fact, studies have shown Merino wool actually improves babies sleep patterns by creating a cosy and breathable microclimate. The “clever” in this sleeping bag’s name refers to the innovative and useful features, including a pushchair belt opening for easily strapping the baby in while wearing the sleeping bag, adjustable arm openings, and a two-way zip that opens from the top or bottom to allow for easy changes. When on the hunt for the perfect sleeping bag for your little one, there are some important factors to consider, the most significant of which is safety. Are baby sleeping bags safe?Fabric: Cotton and polyester | Sizes: 0-6 months, 6-18 months, 18-36 months | Tog: 2.5 What we love Baby sleeping bags arrive with button, snap or zip fasteners, and which you choose is really a matter of personal preference. In our opinion, a two-way zip for both top and bottom opening is handy for nappy changes as well as getting the baby in and out of the sleeping bag. A zip is also less fiddly than buttons or poppers – although it might prove more difficult to locate the zip connections in the dark, in the middle of the night, where buttons are easier to do up blindly.
