Vest under clothes?

[diffusedl]

I have an 8 month old and not sure if it's cold enough now to wear a vest under her leggings and long sleeved top? What are you dressing yours in. 13/14 degrees here

My 3 year old still has a vest under clothes, I still go by the one more layer than us rule.

When it was in between weather like this we quite often did a long sleeved coloured vest with a t shirt then a cardigan so could layer up/down as the day changed. Or maybe vest and long sleeved T-shirt, bit warm still fit vest and jumper.

Was just digging out clothes for my 6m old…. I don’t have a lot of “tops”, just long sleeved vests. I’m going for one of those plus leggings for the house and will chuck a cardigan or jumper over the top if we go out).

So many people I know have been dressing their babies in a vest under clothes all throughout summer so I’m glad it’s not just me that hasn’t been! I’ve started with vests again on the slightly chillier days unless she’s wearing a jumper type top. But I will probably start putting them on everyday soon

Thank you! Seems that everyone does it all differently😁 think i will just chuck a cardigan on if it's colder and will introduce the vests in a few weeks as it gets colder

I've started adding vests back in again over the last few days because it's been getting chillier.

I've just put a vest on my 1 year old for the first time in 6 months

Mine wears a bodysuit all year round to keep the nappy up! In the summer I don't put a top over the top.

We're not at the best stage yet - still either a normal T-shirt plus cardy or long sleeved top if cooler. Today it's going to be 12/13 here so I'll do a long sleeved top, leggings, socks (she insisted on sandals yesterday but I think too cold today) and then a little thin hoodie top or rain coat for when outside

I think children have really variable preferences re temperature too from a very early age - my DC2 is 4 and has started wearing a vest again this past week or two, she's always disliked the cold and loved the heat, we never had any of the difficulties many babies/parents seem to have in hot weather like not sleeping or feeling uncomfortable in the sling or getting grumpy. DC1 is much more middling.

I agree layering on top is easier - where I am the temp change during the day feels quite pronounced at the min.

Same. My DC have all worn a bodysuit all year round till 2. So I am currently debating moving from the short sleeved bodysuit to long sleeved bodysuit for DD 13 months.
Older than 2 they wear vests in Autumn and Winter so holding off on that

I'm doing long sleeved vest with leggings or dungarees and a jumper on top.

Mine wore a vest pretty much all year round bar the very hottest days, sleeveless at hottest points through to long sleeve in mid winter, until probably the summer they were 4.

My dd is almost 3 and she still wears a vest under her long sleeved tops/jumpers, as well as under a t shirt and hoody combination.

Dd2 who is 5 months doesn't always wear a vest under clothes, but she's often in a snuggly cardigan, snow suit or under a cosy blanket while asleep

My DS (3) still wears a vest under his clothes.
