dd won't keep her bib on!

[UnfortunateUsername]

DD (9 months) has discovered how to take off her bib, so now absolutely refuses to keep on one. They're all the velcro fastening ones and they're just too easy for her to pull off.

Any ideas where I can get some bibs that won't pull off so easy?

I got some bibs with sleeves on eBay. That'll sort her out!

I remember mine doing that! As GABAN says bibs with sleeves are harder to take off or you can buy some little painting aprons. In the Summer my lot often wore just a nappy at meal times. Skin is easier to wipe down than clothes!

Unfortunately she can get the ones with sleeves off too! She's a determined little monkey. Painting aprons might be a good idea, do they do them that small?

I use old t-shirts with dd (kindly donated by big brother). she can't get those off...

Tommee Tippee roll up bibs have a fastener at the back where you pop the nub through a hole (iyswim) - I can't imagine she'd get them off. Worth a try?

I pop a bag clip like these ones over the velcro fastening, it doesn't stop her completely but it slows her down a bit.

I did that with dc2 RJandA but got so many negative comments from visitors that I didn't dare suggest it here! It works though.
Mothercare sell bibs you just pull over the head but dc2 used to turn them round to the back

I use a bag clip.

DD did this too, she worked out how to pull the ones with sleeves off just after I'd bought a pile of really expensive ones from John Lewis. We use a pelican bib now from Boots which has plastic clips at the back. She can't pull it off (yet) but it does mean that when she plays 'Peek-a-bib' food falls all over her head.

Negative comments MooMoo? What on earth did they say? It doesn't hurt her, I don't mean you should clip it so that it's tight round her neck or anything?

Also we had to use one to start with because her neck was so scrawny at 6 months that none of the bibs fitted her.

In the end after trying all the bibs in the end we went with old t-shirts or I simply took her shirt off and turned up the heat a little in the kitchen...
It's annoying when they get dirty... used to drive me bonkers how much mess she made at that stage. Personally the shirtless is the easiest I found you just wipe their bellies and pop a shirt back on quick and off they run...

Both M&s and telsco sell bibs with a pop stud fastening. They are the only ones my DS can't rip off!

RJandA some of my rellies are so contrary that they've suggested in the past that grogags are cruel ('poor little thing can't walk, why are you trying to stop him walking?' ). I never put the clip tight, just over the velcro.

Teehee, are they supposed to walk in their sleep? I'm assuming you weren't leaving the grobag on all day?!
