I’m sure we all have done that at one time or another, but I would think on a cool night you might take a little more time to dress a baby accordingly. I may end up eating my words but something just doesn’t sound right about this story
The thing that sounds strange to me is that the mom and other kids didn’t wake up as someone was sneaking in and stealing the baby. Maybe the family was careless and let someone have access to the house who should not have? When a baby that young is taken, it seems to be by someone who intends to either sell the kid or keep it because they want a child, or do not like the parents.
I guess how you dress a baby for sleep would also depend on where someone sets the thermostat, too-most of the people I knew when my daughter was little kept their homes far warmer than I would have-I kept the thermostat between 62 and 65, and just put extra covers on everyone, including the baby. I still keep it that cool in winter-anything warmer is too hot for me.
