Overheating & Overthinking: The Truth About Baby Sleep in Warm Weather

With Tori Drew

It’s 2am. The house is quiet… but you’re not asleep.

You’re standing over your baby, one hand hovering just above their chest, asking yourself the same question for the tenth time tonight
Are they too hot? Too cold? Should I add a layer… or take one away?

When the weather warms up, something shifts for parents. The rules you thought you understood suddenly feel unclear. The advice online? Conflicting. The fear? Very real.

Because here’s the truth, overheating isn’t just uncomfortable. It’s one of the most overlooked risks when it comes to safer sleep. And yet, so many of us are left guessing in the dark… literally.

So in this episode, we’re cutting through the noise. I am joined by Sleep Consultant and mum of 4, Tori Drew known on social media as @thisparentcan_sleep

We’re talking about what actually matters when it comes to babies and safer sleep - what’s myth, what’s evidence-based, and what could make all the difference.

Because safer sleep shouldn’t feel like a guessing game.
