Its summer in australia.is it ok to keep aircon on wiv my 12wk baby in the room?she wears 1 tog halo sleepsack longsleeve onsie inside.22 deg celsius

It is ok to use AC: In hot weather it is perfectly fine to use AC for babies in the room. Be flexible with the temperature and increase to 24-26C if you find the baby's extremities to be cold or the baby seems uncomfortable. Be flexible with dress as well. You can tell if the temperature is fine if baby is feeding and sucking well, is responsive when awake and sleeping well. AC filters dust as well.
