if you use the Kiddopotamus car seat cover

How do you dress your DC under it? I bought this for when my DD is born and wasnt sure if it would be to warm with clothes under it to. Maybe I should skip the Pram altogether and just put her in regualr clothes with the car seat cover?

Pram

B - As Samantha was also a Feb baby, I used the Bundle Me, but it's the same concept. I would dress her in layers, warm clothes, then I would have on something like a warm sweater or little hoodie, a hat (and because I was a nuerotic new mommy, I always put her hood up too over her hat just in case the hat slipped off. I also used the shirts that had the hand cuffs, so her hands were always covered.

Normally, DD is dressed in her regular clothes with a hat.

If it is really cold or windy, I'll tuck a warm blanket all around her before I put the car seat cover on and take out the blanket when we get in the car. DD is always warm. She gets hot in the carseat as it is, so I have to unzip the cover anyway as soon as we get into the warm car or she gets too hot.

i just got this the other day - I dress Tyler like I normally would - he is a little sweathog though so I try not to layer him up too much.

I'm obsessed with this cover - makes things so much easier!

ETA - I think the Pram that you posted - on top of clothes - under the cover is going to be wayyy too hot!

I would dress them in regular clothes, and if it w as really cold out, I put a blanket over them as well when we were outside.

DS was born in December. I had a very light pram. I put DS in the pram under the Posh Pouch a few times, but stopped b/c he got so sweaty. After that, he just wore an outfit and a hat. If it was really cold, I'd put a blanket over the handle of the car seat. The Posh Pouch was pretty warm though.

When I used it with my DD I just put her in the seat in whatever outfit she was wearing, strapped her in, put her hat on, then tucked a big, warm blanket all around her and covered her infant seat with the posh pouch. She was always toasty warm.

Regular clothes, sweater, hat. If it's freezing out, I put a blanket over the cover.
