Summary
As UK temperatures soar past 30°C, a seasoned midwife with over 10 years of experience is warning parents to rethink baby clothing to prevent overheating—a known risk factor for SIDS. She advises against hats indoors, as babies lose heat through their heads, and recommends layering based on room temperature: nappies alone if it’s above 27°C, a vest if between 24–27°C, and breathable cotton sleeping bags with proper sizing. Always check the room with a thermometer and feel your baby’s chest or back—remove layers if clammy or too warm, add if cool. Simple, smart steps to keep little ones safe and cool this summer.
