Dressing 2mo for outside winter day

[jeninejessica]

It should be about 0c here tomorrow (around 35F) and I want to try to get out with DD for a run. I can't figure out what to dress her in though.... Help! I keep second guessing. Its so much easier when I'm wearing her, but that's hard to run with! lol

If you're not going to be wearing her, is she going to be in a stroller or what?  Do you have a stroller bunting or a weather shield or anything of the sort on the stroller? 

If you weren't planning on running, but just walking to the corner store, what would you be wearing for yourself?  That's typically a good place to start.

nak.

Yes, she'll be in a jogging stroller (unless I can't convince myself that she'll be warm enough, and then I'll just walk I suppose... which makes this all moot. 

I don't have a cover for it, but it has a very low canopy, and i think im going to rig up a cover out of a blanket. i also have a bundle me for her carseat, which im just thinking would probably fit through the same strap holes.... hmmm

Just walking i'd wear probably runners, my fleece lined snowpants with nothing underneath (for wind mostly), a t-shirt, hoodie and fleece zipup, and mitts. 

i dont own a snowsuit for her, since she cant wear it in her carseat, but I do have a very thick blanket sleeper type thing. Im thinking that, with a light sleeper on underneath, in her bundle me (if it fits). and obviously a hat. she;ll have a blanket overtop. im also just thinking now about heating up a rice sock and putting it in with her,,, hmmm

I'd put my son in something wool to start with and then layer over it.  This is a favorite at my house.  Hat of course.  Do you have a windproof, lightweight down jacket or something windproof  you can lay over or use in place of a blanket to keep the wind from getting to your DD?  I would avoid fleece since it can make your baby sweat and therefore chill her (I learned this the hard way with my older one).
