My 1 year old sweats a lot to the point that by the time he wakes up his pillow is quite wet. We keep the home temperature at around 70 and he is not in heavy clothing. He is otherwise a normal healthy baby.

My son is the same way. His doctor said most young children sweat more than adults. My son - who is 8 - will still often wake up drenched in sweat.

Sweating - Man working up a sweat
This is normal, I realize that you child is young but they may always sweat a lot. Some of us just sweat more then others, I am a person that does not sweat and I was told by a doctor that sweating is more healthy because it gets rid of the impurities in you body. I rarely sweat, we all have different sweat glands there is probably nothing to worry about.
