I didn't have too many, and ended up using a variety of outfit tops to go on under the sleepsack. One thing to think about to go along with the sleepsack is long sleeve shirts or undershirts. The fleece one is much better made than the cotton one, but the cotton one can't be beat for keeping him covered yet comfortable during the summer. We keep the house so cool, though, I still put a sleeper on under the sleep sack on most nights, or dress him in the fleece one. Now that it's summer, we've been using the cotton sleep sack, which in a medium is still huge on him, though he's a fairly large baby. He started sleeping through the night sometime just after we started using the sleep sack. That worked great, because he had room to kick his feet, but couldn't kick the cover off, making his feet cold and waking him up. Then we started using the Small fleece sleepsack.

We continued to swaddle him as long as we could, which was somewhere around 2 months or so. I started to put him in a sleep sack when we first came home from the hospital, but it was so huge on him, we just swaddled him and tucked him in tightly with a blanket in the bassinet. One fleece one in size S, and a cotton one in size M.

I purchased two Halo sleep sacks before my son was born. If I had to do it over again, I would have skipped the Halo and invested in a Miracle Blanket. We got minimal use out of our NB Halo and even less use out of the small size Halo. I had better luck swaddling in just footed sleepers or open bottom gowns. The swaddling was VERY necessary for us, as DS would startle and wake up if his arms were not wrapped up - he had a very strong Morow (sp?) reflex. So he only used the Halo every now and then. Unfortunately, my experience was that it was very hard to swaddle my son with a Halo on (we were following the 5 S's in the Happiest Baby on the Block). I *had* to have one - ended up buying 2 (1 NB size and 1 small size). I wanted to let you know that before the baby, I was wild about the Halos. The lengths on Halos are really generous, but my memory is that the armholes on the NB size are a bit small. at birth, and he was able to wear the NB size Halo up until around 2 1/2 months or so - he has consistently been in the 70+ percentile, so he's not a small baby.
