LO is 5 months old and ready to go in the sit-up pram. Only thing is we don't have a foot muff yet. she has a snowsuit, but do you think she will be to cold?

Snowsuit will probably be fine, just add a blanket on top if you're worried, if it's really cold do you have a raincover to put on to shield the wind?

Bring a blanket to wrap round her legs if she needs it - the snowsuit should be warm enough but there's a cold wind here and I like another layer to help deflect it.

If you think she'll get cold, put a few blankets over her too. My dd is 23 months and doesn't/didn't have foot muff for her pushchair, so we used a few blankets to cover her legs and tucked them under her then made sure she had her hat, scarf and gloves on.

If you're not sure, using a thick blanket or two won't hurt her :)

I have never used a foot muff, always just dressed them well with a blanket over them.

I don't have a footmuff, dd in snowsuit is fine, even in actual snow! Tend to have a blanket just in case.

I used to just wrap a blanket around my LO's lower half, kind of tuck it under her so it wouldn't fall off. I always think they must feel the cold more than us as they are just sitting still
