No win with heat

[orriskitten]

So a couple of Weeks ago we had no heat. That was no fun.

They finally fixed it and now there is too much. Its over 87 degrees in the baby's room and I can'tkeep the windows open because the wind scares get.

Ffs there is no win in this apartment.

Window open while she is awake and probably a naked baby for a nap with the window closed.

I'd love for this week to be over now.

Our apartment can be a major sauna too. I think opening the window while she's awake is good. Do you have a fan? I would keep a fan in the nursery going sometimes. Also, maybe try opening the top portion of the window, opposed to the bottom? Not only will it allow more heat to escape, but it won't be as drafty as the it would be with bottom portion open. Fireman DH trick. Good luck mama!

The ceiling fan is going, just not doing much of anything. We have a window fan, but that only adds to the howling wind. Top window is just as noisy, which is the main problem. I think I'm more bothered than the baby.

Duh. Why did I never think of this? I'm going to crack the top of her window open for the next nap. 

Baby monitor currently says 86 in her room. Ugh!!
