Baby sweating in moby wrap

[Jules09]

I tried the moby out for the first time with my three week old, in the hug hold/tummy to tummy position. She really liked it in there and was sleeping happily, but when I kissed her head I noticed she was sweating. I took her out and she was sweating on most of her head, so she was way too hot in there. It's only 72 here today and we had the a/c on too, so it's not hot. She was only wearing a short sleeve onesie. Will the moby get more comfortable for her temperature wise as winter approaches? Or as she gets older? How do other people get around this issue?

It's really normal for babies and toddlers to sweat when they are sleeping. my daughter would sweat on her head only wearing a diaper in an air-conditioned room, so I personally wouldn't worry about it unless she starts sweating when not asleep.

my 3 week old sweats bullets in the moby, even when wearing just short sleeved onesie in an air conditioned room. but when i feel his skin, he doesnt seem overheated, just warm and toasty

but he also sweats when swaddled with a light blanket

I had a February baby and I'd put her in the moby wearing only a diaper and short sleeve onesie and she'd be plenty warm. I loved not having to wrap her in layers but can definitely imagine us overheating had it been spring or summer!

Stretchy wraps are kind of hot IMO. It was great for DD who was an October baby but I hardly used it for DS (April). A woven wrap was cooler as was a mei tai and a ring sling. You can make a cheap woven wrap out of gauze for the summer months which would be fine for a smaller baby.
