Sleepsacks are available, but it's easy to find a sleeper that is an appropriate weight to keep a baby warm. It used to be recommended that people really overdress their babies, but it was found that overheating was a contributing factor for SIDS. Babies are ideally supposed to sleep in a room that is 68-72 degrees, and be dressed in the same manner an adult would to be comfortable. If I had a sleep sack on over my PJ's in that temperature range, I would roast. We just dress my kids in pj's, and it works just fine.
I hope that helps!

Just wondering what is recommended to keep the little ones warm? I used to use blankets, is this not recommended now? So much changes.
