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? :(

I follow my baby’s cues. After awhile I realised baby seem uncomfortable being swaddled or in layers. I’ll only swaddle if in an aircon room. Had to go against my mum’s & mil’s advice because I see can see that my baby is uncomfortable.

thank you for sharing… yea my baby sweats very easily. but my mum keeps saying baby will catch a cold and can only on fan speed 1, and cannot even direct at the baby. that’s crazy :(
