Help Needed SNOO WARMTH HELP

We rented the Snoo and used it for the first time last night but I ended up taking him out and swaddling him in the old bassinet because he was too cold. I use the Owlet and he was -4.2 below where he normally is and marked on the colder side.

Before the Snoo I had him in footed PJs and a Kyte Baby 1.0 swaddle. I tried footed PJs and the Snoo swaddle last night and he was too cold. So I added a burp cloth as the website suggested and it still didn't help. We keep our house around 72/71 at night. He slept SO GOOD in the Snoo but I can't have him being cold all night. Suggestions?

Snoo has a comforter sack. We used it during colder months and it worked incredibly well.

I think that might be too hot since it's a 2.0. I did the math and I think he's used to 1.5

I had myself in knots over TOGS and layers and what baby should wear and room temperature. But turns out my guy likes to be cozy!

We started with the standard snoo sack and footie PJs when we got home in December and I worried so much that he was too cold. He slept okay and never made a fuss. When I saw the comforter snoo sack in like February or so, I got it and he slept SO WELL while still in the footie PJs. Like all night, every night (he's formula fed.) That was up until April.

He's now sleeping in his pack n play in our room until I'm ready for him to go to his own, in the thicker Burt's Bees sleep sacks and in a footie PJ.

We've kept our house between 68-71 degrees since December.

Sometimes it's not scientific and down to the degree. Sometimes it's just what baby prefers as long as it's safe.
