How do i keep her hands warm?

[possumhead]

DD 9 months old, has had freezing cold hands the last couple of mornings. The rest of her body is lovely and warm. She wears a vest, sleepsuit and a grobag. Any ideas on how to warm her little hands?
Thanks

matalan had babygros last year with integral mits that folded over the hands....kept DS's paws toasty warm! might be doing them again this year..... or good old scratch mits!

put socks on her hands ?

I know that sounds a bit bizarre, but the mw said it was a good tip for newborns instead of those useless scratch mitts that don't stay on. I guess it would work just as well with an older baby.

meant DD...DS is a strapping lad of 7..no mittens for him!!

when my dd's were little i found some sleepsuits that had fold over hands (the ends of the sleeves were like little envelopes and folded over the hands)

i am sure i found them in asda, ethel austin and Dunnes

oh yes i sometimes used socks too

cold hands DO NOT MATTER

the blood supply is diverted from the extremities .. hands, feet, nose to ensure the body is kept warm

it won't be bothering her .. so don't let it bother you

next sleepsuits have the foldover mitten bits too.

Thanks ladies,
I know that cold hands aren't anything to worry about but i don't like having cold hands so thought if there was a way to make her hands warm it might be more comfortable! Big softie here
I'll have a look for those sleepsuits with envelope mitts, if not i'll try the socks trick!
Cheers

I have just bought sleepsuits from Next with the envelope things. Although they were 3-6 months I'm not sure if they do them in all sizes.

My dd's hands are so cold when she comes into my bed for a feed. Like little ice cubes on my skin.

I have worried about this one myself, but does not seem to bother dd. I hate being too warm, so have decided that she must take after me.

I hate ds having cold hands, i have fleece gros withs fold over bits, or i put a cardigan on with wooly socks on his hands, but its it was icy this morning already.

I tried the fold over hands on sleepsuit last night and regretted it - she woke up lots more than usual - finally dawned on me after the third time that she likes to suck her fingers to get back to sleep - so beware.....
