in fact i didnt use air con since he got flu\running nose
the cradle cloth is breathable one, reason being not to make him feel hot but feel normal.... too hot makes him feel uncomfortable too
now we are using the electric one, i turn it on 24 hours at night.
Do u think i need to use it only when it is required or it is ok to turn it on 24\7?
Depends on you. Personally both my son dont let me turn it off. Once off, they will be awake. All I want is to give my wife and I some good sleep in the middle of the night. It helps especially when your relationship is on strain due to being sleepless.
I think you need to change him into long shirt and pant. Dont worry about being hot when the cradle is on. In fact, it will only get colder.
As a matter of fact, I get 2 cradle, one in my room while the other is a portable set, alternating between my mom and during weekend, where I will bring them to my MIL house.
BTW, using a cradle also come with a benefit. This depends on whether or not you are willing to try. I cant recall the exact time frame but after few months (I cant remember, could be 3 or 5months), my mom started giving him milk in the cradle. Since my son is a slow eater, it really helps during midnight. Just use a napkin to support the bottle and he will eventually finish and return to sleep. Therefore I dont need to spend 30minutes or 1 hour to feed him after that.
