nightie for a one year old

16 replies

whojimmyflip · 30/10/2011 20:37

I would like a nightie / sleepgown or whatever for my DD. She is 15 months and quite long. She has quite good taste and doesn't like princess motifs etc. All the nighties seem to go 0-12 months and then 2-3.
any help much appreciated

"she has quite good taste"? Hmm she's 15 months?

If she's long then get her a 2-3.

I can't decide if this is a wind up.

You would be surprised at the number of people on here who wouldn't be joking with that comment! I would go for the 2-3 if she is tall/long.

ok thank you - I am never sure about sizes but I guess with nighties it hardly matters. What a novice!

"She has quite good taste" ROFFLE

No idea about the nighties, sorry - but love the above!

I think night clothes do seem to go up in bigger jumps, so they will miss out a year each time, IYSWIM.
The longer one should be fine, but when she is toddling round you might need to turn up the hem so she doesn't keep tripping up over it.

Honestly?

Not until your third post!

I'd put her in jammies until walking well, tbh, nightie is hopeless for crawling / cruising.

and then get only boden nighties, which are soooo cute and cosy.

Oh yes I had overlooked M and S

She is very much walking Mercy, I'll have a look at Boden

thanks everyone for suggestions

Dd got a gift of a white company nightie last year - she refused to wear it - 18 months at the time- it totally restricted climbing/ jumping on the sofa etc. looked adorable though.
