do you continue to use your sleep sacks after your little ones are able to roll over, sit up or stand?

My LO. Can't stand yet but does sit and roll. We still use ours. I don't put him to bed with a blanket and it's still cold at night. His sack keeps him warm and I don't worry about his getting wrapped up in it.

For sure! My 10 month old is doing all of the above in her sack. It's so big/wide in the leg area there's room for them to move their legs to crawl and stand. And once they're toddler age, Halo makes sacks that have feet cut outs. My oldest wore those for a little while (until he said he just wanted to sleep with his favorite blanket). It's so nice knowing they're always covered up wearing their sacks.

Yes. My LO is not standing yet, but she moves all over the crib in her sleep sack - it's nice because I don't worry about her kicking her covers off or pulling them over her head. But I think I will use the ones with leg holes when she's standing...

yes, my daughters both wore them until about 2 1/2! - it was part of their night routine, and they would walk in them in their crib, but never tried to climb out. I didn't buy the one with foot holes, they just had the XL size. As soon as my babies were done swaddling (about 3 months) we went through every size of sleep sack up to XL!

Mine is rolling over (not sitting or standing yet) and I still use them. They make sleep sacks with legs for when they start walking.

I always used a receiving blanket or pad and just wrapped it around the "mattress" and secured it. At that age, my little one didn't move around wildly enough to disturb it. And I was right there the whole time.

I am really not sure why it says that to be honest. But, what I can tell you is that from about 4.5 years experience of using this (2 children later!) it has not been an issue after they were able to sit up. I would think that if they tried to stand on it, the material is soft enough that is would just mash down flat. Although, it is definitely sturdy enough not to look floppy or saggy per say! I have loved it and it is definitely worth the piece of mind and purchasing! As I stated in my review, it also keeps arms and legs in the crib which can be alarming when they wake up crying because a limb is stuck between the slats! Hope this helps! :)

My son uses a support pillow for his son. If you do not use one, the babies head can flop from side to side.

I would not. They deflate pretty easily. For example, any night my 3-year-old son ended up resting his head over it, it was completely flat by the morning.It worked great to train him to not fall off the bed. But I wouldn't use it on my 6-month-old baby or anyone larger than maybe 40lbs. Maybe a foam roll or memory foam body pillow that you can tuck under the sheets? That's what we use when visiting at my parents' house. I hope this helps.

We bought the Dream On Me foam mattress to go in the Pack n Play and used the sheet on top of the mattress. The bottom of the pack n play really isn't soft enough for a baby to sleep on (maybe some kids do, but we read it's better to use the mattress so that's what we did).

That is a difficult question to answer since people have different warmth requirements. The sleep sack takes the place of a blanket. If you use a light blanket now this could be used instead. They also sell a heavier weight if you currently use a heavier blanket.

I put them in various other clothes, totally depending on how warm or cold the room is going to be. Usually I would put my kids in the Carter's fleece pj's with the feet, no sack, for most of the year - temp around 70 (we live in SoCal). If it would be colder than 70 then I would use the Sleep Sack and a long sleeve onesie/pants or some cooler pj's. If it is going to be really cold then both the fleece jammies and the Sleep Sack. Just use your common sense!!

No. The toddler sleep sack has the feet holes so a child is still physically able to move and walk quite normally. The sleepsack is not made to confine a child. Just keep them covered safely.

I have used it as a napper since my daughter is still too small to roll over, but once your child starts rolling over I would stop using it as a napper.

Yea, we used blankets or t-shirts. There isn't much built in head support if they fall asleep.

We loved ours for our twin girls when they were less than 7 months, however we stopped using them once they could roll over. Now at 13 months there is no way they would stay put in the nests long enough to go to sleep. I think I have seen something that combines the depth of a pack n play with the compact lightweightedness of the nests, but don't remember where.

Yes, you just put it on the back of the diaper a little off to the side. I still use it on my 8 month old who sleeps mostly on his tummy.

You're welcome! I understand. You're being cautious of course! Another item I used for all 3 of my babies was a "wedge" that kept the baby on their backs.. Course they can't roll anyway ... BUT it keeps them firmly in place - which is good.. And gives the parents more peace of mind. Good luck!! :)

Yes, though we put in rolled receiving blankets to keep baby from rolling. Would not suggest moving an older baby(8+ months, if you are still using it).

This suit is only for back sleeping, the company says it is not safe once the baby can roll over in it. However, just because a baby can roll over out of the suit, it doesn't mean they can roll over while in it.

Yes, my little one rolls all over the crib in this sleep sack. She can also stand up and walk a little in it. There is a lot of room in the leg area.
