Dressing infant

Hello mamas, FTM mum here, appreciate if you can share your experience! How did you dress your newborn during the day? My CN dressed my baby in long sleeves, all swaddled up and only with lowest fan turned on. I wonder if baby will feel too warm for SG’s hot weather. CN kept saying “it’s ok”, my mum kept saying “baby cannot catch a chill”… i get it but I am concern if baby will overheat? :(

Depending on the weather and the environment my baby is sleeping in, I dress them accordingly. Most importantly, my mum says, is to make sure the tummy is covered and warm to prevent wind from entering through the umbilical cord.
