I guess it all depends on where you live huh? I'm in northern New England and I grew up in a house with only a wood stove... I know how to live cold. 62 is warm enough in the winter, and we don't have an A/C for summer either, so when we have stretches of 85-90 degrees and 85% humidity we turn on fans, turn off lights, and handle it. Climate control isn't something I really bother with... we dress ourselves and our kiddo appropriately for the temperature.

I would probably freeze at yalls house lol. It stays between 73-75 in my house. Anything below 73 and its too cold for us. I kept it on 73 today and me and the boys were under a blanket most of the day.

I read in my safe sleeping book the perfect temperature is around 68. That's what I keep the a/c on. I have to get used to not sleeping with the fan on though lol

I personally keep it about 65 in our bedroom just because it's comfortable to me and he can Cover up if he needs to, which he doesn't mind bc I'm usually hot natured and can only sleep when it's cool. But he usually like it a little warmer so I compromise the rest of the house for the bedroom lol

I would say 60-65.  The baby will be comfy in a normal temp and dont make the mistake of bundling him up when its not cold he will be too hot just like u :)
