Hi I'm looking for the best swimming costume for my baby, not a very warm indoor pool. Thank you!

Any - just Don’t expect to stay in long. Few pools these days are heated sufficiently for that
age group.

you can buy mini wet suits etc but they are a major faff to put on/off and not pretty if a poonado goes off in it!

A lot of the swimming lessons at cooler pools around here insist on a wetsuit style swimsuit but I find them a major faff. We went to a slightly warmer pool and never used a wetsuit. Something easy to get off quickly when they are cold is good. A sun safe one can also be used on holiday so a lot of people seem to use them in the pool too.

At that age I did a disposable swim nappy underneath a Splash About happy nappy. Extra security for poos, and some pools insist on doubling up with the Splash About happy nappy. I didn't put him in anything else and only spent a half hour in the pool. Could do a long sleeve rash suit as well if you want.

Now he's a toddler he just wears a disposable swim nappy under a long sleeve rash suit- the little onesie style.

Get a Velcro fastening wetsuit type one from Vinted. Search JoJo Maman

Long sleeved rash vest and bikini bottoms or a swim nappy over the disposable swim nappy (some pools require doubling up). Separates are much easier for changing and also you can do the top before you leave so it’s just a change of bottoms required when you get to the pool.
