Detailed Answer:
Hi and welcome.
Well, room temperature should not be too low or too high.
Most experts recommend that the temperature in the room where a baby's sleeps be kept between 68 and 72 degrees F (20–22.2° C). This is ideal but in general it should be within 16-24C.
Wish you good health. Regards
