Coats!

This may seem like a daft post but given the pearls of wisdom I have read from you all I thought I would give it ago!
Now it's winter I want to put my 7 month little girl in a warm coat. But all the coats I have are a nightmare to get on and are so restricting for her. She has a snow suit, she has a little puff jacket and a wool coat and all three are the same.
Can any of you ladies recommend a coat that is easier and more comfy? Told you it was daft :-)
Thanks

You don't need a coat at that age, you need one of these, so much easier! Smile

Agree with jilted. Coats too awkward when they are still tiny. I used one of these

tuppenceandcrumble.com/shop/star_wraps/Baby-Star-Wraps-Naturals

With DD last winter & was much easier than a snowsuit or coat

Genius thanks ladies, these look so much easier! Will be investing and hopefully have less of a fight getting my little girl wrapped up to go out :-)

I used the star wrap as well. Absolutely brilliant invention and easy to undo if they are asleep and you happen to need to go into a shop/cafe

Bought the tuppence and crumble and used it for the first time today. Happy days! My little girl was so snug and happy. Thanks :-)

Glad it's worked for you. Had to Grin at tuppence and crumble though, around here your tuppence is something else entirely Grin.

Oh really! Ha ha. Something like a fanny bag in the US vs. bum bag in the uk :-)

Yeah, something like that. Well let's just say that no crumble is ever coming near my tuppence, even if it was apples and blackberry. Just too messy Grin.
