Hello


My 15mo has now made it impossible to get on a sleepsuit in the evening thanks to the constant back arching, the rigid board body, rolling, headbutting, kicking etc etc (as I'm sure is the case with most parents!) plus her legs are rather chunky and 12-18 months suits barely do up on the legs so I'm in the market for 2-piece pjs but not sure where to look. I would ideally like to get ones with feet attached as last time I tried footless pjs she got herself in a right tizz with the legs riding up and socks coming off and it wasn't the most peaceful sleep she'd ever had. Anyone know where I can get nice ones that aren't going to break the bank but equally are decent quality, won't bobble and go baggy after 1 wash/wear? I heard its important to get good fitting separates...something to do with suffocation risk and flammability but no sure how accurate that is.


Any tips/recommendations gratefully received!


Thanks

We had to switch to pjs when my daughter was around a year, she was such a wriggler she'd end up with both legs in 1 leg hole! We have found Gap pjs to be fab. They fit very snuggly so don't ride up legs and can be worn under sleeping bags. We try and stock up in the sale though- not cheap!

My 15m old is currently just in a long sleeved bodysuit and his winter sleeping bag - seems cosy and no feet/legs to get in a muddle with. I just put some trackies/leggings on him to pad around in in the morning. I'm not sure you can get feet bottoms in bigger sizes? I do find the 'long john' style pjs (do they do these for girls?!?) better generally as closer fitting and snuggly. And cute.


(ps - again obv using the boys versions but do find jojo pj's expensive, crap, shapeless, not wash well etc...)

thanks everyone, she sleeps in a short-slv body suit, long sleeve sleepsuit and 2.5 tog bag - likes being snug! Will check out gap then, they always have a sale of some sort. And if the leg is tight fitting (long john style) then i guess the socks can stay under the trouser leg. Are the gap pj tops anything like their long slv t-shirts because I find these really small, the necks are loose and the arms are massively tight...but they are long which is good.
We also changed to seperate pjs at around this age. I also like the GAP ones, there are also some similar ones that you can get from mothercare although there are not quite as stretchy. Also that minimode brand from Boots. I don't think that she will need socks if she is in a sleeping bags. The gap pjs are not as stretchy / tight as the t-shirts.

    • Miranda Sawyer of the (once) Observer has done a piece on festival on Insta which might be of-interest.  Councils are private companies, imo. They make money for themselves, imo.  I do not think by law that they have to follow anything brought up by a consultation, this is for 'face' only - hence, LTNs and everything else.  
    • My understanding is the "free event" is 100% Gala, nothing to do with the council. Obviously Gala will still make money from the food & drink that they are trying to coerce punters into buying on their social media posts. Their costs will be negligible due to already having the infrastructure in place for Gala. So Gala are trying to appear community minded by providing this "free event", but the real goal is to set a precedent for a fourth day's festival - which surely no one could possibly object to?!? - in preparation for applying (again) for two three-day festivals spread over two weekends. It's only another two days, right, and the site & equipment is already there, so why would anyone object?!? More money for the council, much more money for Gala, win-win right? But yet another week of our park taken away from us, too, and another 18,000 people trampling & littering the park, and another week of disturbance for the native birds & wildlife...
    • Meson Don Felipe on The Cut was my go to place for many years. Though it's now many years since I was there. 10-15 minute walk from the Tate. If you go can you tell me what it's like nowadays?
    • Doubt you would have got much change out of £150.00 for battery and certainly having forked out for it, best to use your car. I recently sold  my car via webuyanycar.com - very pleasant experience & was roughly what I was expecting. Pop your bangers reg jnto their website to get an idea of price - they do send e mails once a fortnight/month just as an aid for you. Easy enough to delete - don’t even have to read valuation. They literally buy any car - if you can’t get it to them, they will charge you to get it there or recommend a co that will do it for you. Must say, mine was a 2014 reg and whilst a bit suspicious, paid extra to get money into my account as needed it for next car but was assured funds had I not gone down route I took would be in my account within 5 days. I now live in the country - every time I have been back to Dulwich and surrounding area, normally get a fine for driving at wrong time or parking at  wrong time so if I drive now, park in West or East Dulwich and do everything else by public transport and walking.  Were I still to be living in ED then before I left was pondering this very issue but since I have been back regularly for health reason I no longer drive but take the train and then buses, walk or Uber. Much cheaper than running a car and had I stayed, that would have been the course I would have taken. I don’t go out everyday, have an allotment or job to go to or family so in my case, would be cheaper not to have a car.  Was truely shocked   at the cost of second hand cars…..but where I now live only has a smattering of buses so no choice but to have wheels to get from A to B etc.
