Vests

My little girl is 2 and a bit and although still in nappies we are putting her on the potty each time she has her nappy done and most times she does something. Cos its cold she wears vests under her clothes so I wanted to get her vests that don't popper up now but I looked in asda and they don't seem as warm. Is that right? Cos that's why I want her to wear them to keep her warm! And the thermal ones were really expensive at £6 for 2!

M&S do nice vests. I would buy a size bigger so they are nice and long to tuck into her trousers.

Bloody hell-don't know if that link will work! They were from M&S and were £11 for 7!

My DS is 6 and still in nappies... He has a gastrostomy.... To buy him a vest for every day costs about £90!

Don't moan!

That must be really hard! I say about money cos I've got none though!!

Those ones in the link have got poppers on but I might look in m&s at their other vests see if they're worth it. I just want to keep her warm

Girls vests seem to be really thin whereas boys are a bit thicker I've found. I only noticed this recently when buying some for ds. They're a lot warmer than my little sisters vests which seem to be the same thickness as her knickers.

Maybe see if you can find a design she likes from the boys section?

Added bonus is no itchy frilly trim on the boys ones
