I live in a 3rd story apt. with brand new central air & we're still baking! It's been on non-stop since about 4a.m. & it's still almost 85 in here.  It doesn't help that we get 5-6 hours of beaming sunlight every evening, even with all windows/curtains closed it heats up.
Princess is so hot, often panting. She's drinking a ton of water & I've even given her a 2qt. container of water to "dig up", which she has. I gave her a cool, quick rinse in the sink but she was hot soon after.
Is there anything I can do for her? I've almost thought of wetting one of her t-shirts & putting that on her? I do ice her water. 
Thanks!  |
I'm sorry your baby is so hot. That has to be miserable for her. Are you on the TOP floor of your building? I lived in a 3rd floor apartment a long time ago and it was SO hot. Maybe you could move to a middle floor if that would be possible for you to do and maybe on the north side of the buildling would help???
Just a thought, but I remember seeing the below cooling mat on PPEPETS.com. It is 55% off right now, making it $13.50. If you use the code "PPESUMMER", you get another 20% off your order, making it $11.00 plus tax and shipping (shipping is high, though.....I think like $8.99). Not sure if it works, but it is cheap enough that you might want to give it a try. There may be other mats out there somewhere that might be better.
Here is the link if you are interested.
