Sleeping bag

Just started my baby in a sleeveless sleeping bag yesterday and he is 8 weeks. I just made sure he couldn’t wriggle down the hole for the head. He loves it as I think he was getting quite cold at night x
We have a 0-6 months one but she’s still not meeting min weight requirements so not used yet (she’s 11 weeks) - same as use using cellular blanket but swaddled!
My daughter uses them and she's 8 weeks my first daughter we used them from 2 weeks because she met the weight requirements quicker than my 2nd daughter. It should say somewhere on the label or packaging the requirement for baby to use it x
We've using them since she was about 3 weeks old,when the weather got colder
After 4 weeks I think. Ours had a weight in it saying not suitable for under 10lb9 So once he hit that we’ve been using them x
About 5 weeks for us.
I have used a sleeping bag from birth but she is a big baby 9Ib at birth, I seem to remember there is guidance with a minimum weight, I think the guidance is to make sure they can’t slip through the bag and cause risk of suffocating, I always check the bags are a good fit and they are not going anywhere.
I am a bit anxious about using a sleeping bag, she is 9 weeks old but I really want to try it. I didn't realise there was minimum weight, she is 10lbs 🤔
Used it last night and it was great! It fit really well around his neck - happy that there wasn’t a chance of it slipping over his face. And kept him nice and warm. It’s a 0-6 month 2.5tog, as our room is fairly cool at night.
i started to use a 0-6 sleeveless sleep bag when my little girl was 7 weeks old as our room is chilly at night. she’s 10 weeks now and has been fine. i think the main thing is making sure their head can’t slip through into the bag but don’t quote me on this!
