Temperature Information

What is a TOG rating?

Finding the right TOG rating and dressing your baby appropriately for the temperature can be confusing. Every baby feels hot and cold differently, ambient temperatures fluctuate, and layering impacts thermal effectiveness. It's not a one-size-fits-all approach, but understanding these factors can help.

At Love to Dream we use the industry-recognised measurement system, called TOG. TOG stands for Thermal Overall Grade and helps simplify the process of choosing the right garment/s for your baby. Put simply: The lower the TOG rating, the lighter the fabric. The higher the TOG rating, the warmer the fabric.

  • Products with a 0.2 TOG Rating are ideal for Room Temperatures between 24-27°C.
  • Products with a 1.0 TOG Rating are ideal for Room Temperatures between 20-24°C.
  • Products with a 1.5 TOG Rating are ideal for Room Temperatures between 18-22°C.
  • Products with a 2.5 TOG Rating are ideal for Room Temperatures between 16-20°C.
  • Products with a 3.5 TOG Rating are ideal for Room Temperatures below 16°C.

The clothing guide link below provides with guidelines around how to dress your baby/toddler based on the room temperature. It is only a guide. All babies are different. The number of clothing layers may vary according to a baby’s health, their physiology, and the room temperature in the room. The caregiver must determine what is suitable. We recommend that carers always monitor the temperature of the room & the child’s comfort. It is important to check your baby regularly to ensure that they are comfortable and that they do not overheat.

3 Easy Steps to Transition

Transitioning out of swaddling can be challenging — which is why the Love To Dream Transition Bag is designed to make this milestone feel easier. With the same cosy, secure feel of a swaddle, the Transition Bag features zip-off wings that let you gradually introduce arms-free sleep at your baby’s pace. Follow these three simple steps to transition out of swaddling with confidence:


  1. One arm at a time: Begin by unzipping one wing to gently introduce arms-free sleep while maintaining a familiar feeling of comfort and security.
  2. Both arms free: Once your baby has settled into the new routine, unzip the second wing to allow more freedom of movement. It’s normal for this stage to take a few nights to adjust.
  3. Move on from swaddling: When your baby is comfortable sleeping with arms and legs free, transition to a swaddle-free routine by moving into a sleep bag.

When To Stop Swaddling

If your baby is showing one or more of these signs, then it’s time to transition to “arms-free” sleeping. Babies will generally begin to show these signs between 2–6 months of age.

You should always consult your GP or paediatrician about your baby’s motor development if you’re unsure. Here are some signs to look out for to indicate it’s time to stop swaddling your baby for sleep:


  • Starting to roll over during playtime
  • Using hands to push up during tummy time
  • Decreased or no startle reflex
  • Lifting their legs and flopping them to the side
  • Ability to escape out of a traditional swaddle
  • Resisting being swaddled traditionally

When and how to transition to arms-free sleep

Transition Bag FAQs

When should I stop swaddling my baby?

It is time to stop swaddling as soon as your baby shows signs of being able to roll over.

Other indicators include kicking their legs up high, pushing up on their hands during tummy time, or reaching for their toes. At this stage, it is safer to gradually transition to an "arms-out" sleep solution.

How do I transition my baby from swaddling?

The Swaddle Up™ Transition Bag makes the milestone of transitioning from swaddling easy.

It features a versatile 2-in-1 design with zip-off wings to take you from swaddle to arms-free sleep. You can start by removing one wing to let one arm out, then the other a few nights later.

Once both wings are removed, it becomes a sleeveless sleep bag, providing a familiar sleep cue while allowing for safer, free movement.

When is my baby ready for arms out sleeping?

Your baby is ready to transition to arms out sleeping when they start showing signs of rolling.

They might be kicking their legs up high, pushing up on their hands during tummy time, or reaching for their toes. At this stage, it is safer to transition to an "arms-out" sleep solution.
