I am Looking for NICU sized baby clothing patterns

basically im wanting to see if any of you can help steer me in the direction of some
Creators who have good patterns for baby clothing in NICU sizes.
Any clothing type just so long as its nicu sized.

Also ideally patterns that aren’t super wordy, i struggle to read them.
I greatly prefer minimal words/ all abbreviations and crochet charts

I have TONS of yarn and really want to start using it for things i can donate and I’ve heard before that baby clothing for NICU babys is impossible to find.

Also wondering what type of yarn would be best to make them out of, polyester? Nylon? acrylic?

I did google to see but all that was coming up were just regular baby clothing patterns. :(

How does everyone cope with night sweats?

So long story short almost 2 years ago i started a medication for depression that also helped my sleep, it was amazing sleeping through an entire night for the first time in some 20-25 years.
But-
Since using the medication i now have some of the craziest night sweats.
I will wake up drenched, my blankets, sheets everything just SOAKED.
this has continued for the past 2 years throughout lots of different temperatures, blankets, ect. This has continued during summer when sleeping with the aircon on, and winter where the room is freezing and i don’t use electric blankets or heaters.
While its not every night, it is every night i sleep through the whole night without waking up.
I have come to the conclusion that my body just cannot regulate heat on its own correctly which is why the crazy sweats only happen when i sleep through the night.
Because on the nights where i still wake up to roll over i also fluff the sheets while rolling over to help release the heat.

so either i have the most broken sleep and stop taking the medicine or i have blissful sleep but wake up a drowned rat every morning.

Now im obviously not going to stop the medication because actually being able to sleep is amazing and im not going back to the crap fest that was sleep without the medication.

So im here to ask what do people who sweat during their sleep do to minimize the effects on their sheets.
Because i don’t really want to have to change my bed sheets every 2 days to avoid sleeping on wet sheets.

Does anyone have any sheet suggestions that cope with sweat well?
I currently have some Lad Collective bamboo fitted sheets, that can only handle 2-3 sweaty nights before just staying damp until washed.

Should i wear pajamas? Im currently a nude sleeper as i find pjs a bit of a sensory nightmare, but waking up stuck to the sheets with sweat also sucks so im willing to wear Pjs if it will help.

Please i beg, how do i make the sweaty sleeper life more comfortable 😭😭😭
