Thomas has a long sleeved singlet, a onesie and a fleeced sleepsuit with a hood, woolen blanket under flanelette sheets, a duvet and a blanket ... we dont heat our room ...
He has his hood up to keep his head warm and to stop him from loosing heat .... he usually sleeps arms out and blankets down to his chest when I check him before we go to bed ...
Its been so cold!!! (and this is in auckland ... I must sound like a sook to mainlanders LOL )

Sam is in a onsie, feety pj's and her swaddleme wrap, plus flannel sheets and a blanket folded in two. I should add that we have a little oil heater on low and try and keep her room at around 18 degrees.
Some nights she is even a bit hot with this!

charli wears a l/s bodysuit and an all in one, she has flannette sheets, a mink blanket and a duvet on her bed. we also have an oil heater on thermostat in her room.
jack wears a l/s bodysuit and warm pj's with socks. he has flannette sheets, a blanket folded over to double it, a thin quilt and a duvet. we also put a hot water bottle in his bed to warm it up abit.
our house is soooooo freezing. we have no insulation or heating apart from a gas heater which i hate using but have to.
i'm sitting here now right in front of the heater with gloves on and about 3 layers of clothing and i'm still cold!

Ollie wears a woollen singlet with nappy and then I put him in a zip up sleeping bag. He has around 4 blankets plus a flannel sheet and a quilt on top. Sometimes I wonder whether he has too much blankets but he always puts his hands on top of the blankets so it doesn't quite cover his whole body. He is always nice and warm in the mornings though and always has a big smile on his face

Brenna wears flanalette PJ's, her GoGo merino sleeping bag, flanalette sheets, aircell blankie and a cotton blanket doubled over. We have a heat pump in the hallway just outside her room that stays on 20 deg all night but in her room it's generally 16 - 17 deg (we brought a Grobag egg and I love it!)

I'm amazed at how varied we all are! And it seems funny to me to have a "night" temperature of 18-20 deg in winter... but anyways, I digress.
Krystiana has gone to bed tonight in a l/s onesie, singlet, warm all-in-one suit, booties, and is wrapped in a flannelette blankie. Winter weight duvet (or actually two summer weights in one cover) and a woolen blanket as well. We have no heater for her room, our only heater in this house is a portable LPG. This is our first winter in this home so time will tell if we need an oil heater in there later, but we're ok so far. Kryssi suckles one hand (left unwrapped) so that one often gets cold because it's out of the blankets and wet 
Hannah and Briona have singlet (just started putting singlets on them to bed this week), flannelette pjs, winter weight duvet.

My Hannah has a woolen singlet on. Then if she has flannelette pj's on she goes in her fleece sleeveless sack. If she is wearing polar feece pj's then no sack. She has a duvet and woolen blanket on her bed. She likes to be really warm tho, and wakes if she gets too cold.

I don't worry about Maya so much as she's old enough to put on some socks/another blanket/layer of clothing if she's cold. She sleeps in flannelette PJ's and a singlet, and has flanelette sheets, plus I make her a "cocoon" with her mink blanket and a winter weight down duvet tucked right in around her to keep her snuggly.

Rhiannon wears a singlet and flannette pjs, plus has flannette sheets, 2 polar fleece blankets and a pure wool blanket and a heater on in her room, that is on thermostate and just keeps the chill off.
in the past week we have added a sheep skin underlay to her cot, and i have left her in her thermal top under her pjs and she has started sleepin a bit better.
Rhiannon kicks her blankets off, but wont wear a sleeping bag thing so keep her as rugged up as possible

Its been sooo cold here in the deep south lately (the morning weather said -3 this morning but I swear it was colder)! I often worry about Elle, and if she is warm enough. I put her to bed with a, singlet, long sleeve woollen singlet, and a warm all in one (with booties on underneath). She is wrapped, and has flannelette sheets and an aircell blanket which is doubled up and crosses over her (so 4 layers I guess), her wee face was cold this morning - but the rest was ok. Our heat pump is programmed to come on at 5am, so house is warm when we get up.

my goodness, my kids must be freezing compaired to most of yours . Cailin has a singlet, pjs and duvet and hottie bottle and Jeremy has singlet, body suit, stretch n grow sheet and 2 blankets. I do have the heater going in his room, but only on low so it really just keeps the chill off.
I did read in some mag this past month that newborns should be kept in a temp of 27-28 degrees!
I thought that was an insane temp to have going at all times....just imagine our power bills!!

Emma Rose sleeps in our bed when it's too cold! But I'd imagine with twins it might get a bit crowded... unless you kick Willie out
Lately I've been putting her to sleep in a long-sleeved onesie (that's what we Yankees call a bodysuit) with pyjamas over the top, then her winter weight GroBag, then a lightweight fleece blanket tucked loosely over her. I put a folded fleece blanket down on top of the cot sheet so she sleeps on that as well. And if the Egg turns blue, I'll put the heater on low and leave it on all night. Her room is small so it warms up quickly, but even with the heater on, the Egg hasn't gone orange so it can't be too hot in there. Em usually manages to throw the blanket off and get all twisted up in the sleeping bag by morning, but her toes are warm...
