Terry toweled bibs
Why they sell the regular type I don't know.
I will agree though, it's not until your actually in the trenches, using them and seeing then in action that you realise how a bib functions - and the types and etc. Honestly, you'd think it makes total sense without seeing it.
But no. And yes 10 yrs of nursing and 1 (loose) year of midwifery doesn't help here. We don't use bibs in either scenario. Last time I used a bib was on myself at the seafood restaurant Kickin' inn with Judy.
The bigger, (and in my opinion wrong type for 3 mo to <6mo) literally just collect the solids and let the wet through
They do have a bigger surface area.
I reckon, perhaps, the bigger but thinner ones are for older babies who are less wet and less milky vom and more food in the wrong place- (and i'm using them early just because that's what I have on hand) and the thicker ones are for now.
I went through about 7 yesterday (4 thick ones -- all that I have -- and then started on the shittier ones because it's winter now and I'm sick of constantly changing whole outfits.
I have a pack of 5 from M&S coming soon but now I'm wondering if I should have bought 2 packs of 5.
Everyone likes cutesy things on babies but when it comes to bibs I actually like them to be plain -- so that the outfit shines over the bib rather than the other way around.
Luckily I love all the clothes she has otherwise this could get exxy (this whole getting into outfits thing).
