My son is now 32 weeks old.  This week when we kangaroo at night he is getting cold, and a few times it has held up his feeding.  I have a blanket over us.  Any other ideas?

Thanks

IS there a little hat on his head to keep his body heat in?? How about booties on his feet? Studies are showing that a nurse merely mentioning that the baby is getting a little cold will cause a mom to actually heat up a little! This isn't your fault...try your best not to worry about it while your kangarooing. Besides the booties and a cap, maybe a little heavier blanket. It's odd that it doesn't happen any other time. Hmmm...
