Really cold baby hands

[KrisM]

I'm talking ice cube cold. When DS wakes up, his hands are just freezing. The rest of him (face, neck) is nice and warm, but his hands are awful. How can I keep them warm, or should I not worry too much about it? The house is at 72deg and he has a blanket around him, but he sucks his fingers, so his hands are out. Brrr.

DS has the same problem. I'm hoping someone has some good advice other than mittens!

I remember DS being like that through the winter. He was warm and cozy everywhere else thanks to warm sleepers but their little hands are freezing! I don't think there is much you can do..... unless it is waking your kiddo then he probably doesn't care/mind the chilly fingers...... but I'll bet he would be upset if you took his fingers away and put them in mittens!!!!! It just something that happens to the little ones.... I've never heard of anything to remedy the situation!
