question about onesies

[nvnvgirl]

The ones I got say "Adorable", "Under Construction" with a some backhoes on it, "A little Monkey Business,with a little monkey hanging on it; "Loveable" with a little puppy on top of the O, and "On the Move" with a car towing a little trailer. They're so cute. These are Carter's brand.
The Gerber brand also has really cute prints! I know that most of the boys ones are blue, and they've got one that 's got really cute puppies on it and I think there's one or two more in the pack that have puppies doing things too.
Make sure if you get them, to check the sizes; the Carter's are different sized than the Gerbers (and I can't recall which one runs one size larger than the other one). So, in the Carter's I got the 3-6 months size and I think in the Gerber it would have been the 6-9 month size.

Here's a terrible photo (my cellphone and I can't see what I'm doing with it, LOL; plus, there wasn't much light)

And to the person who said to turn them around....YES! that way, it won't cover up their tail at all! That worked great, plus, that way you can see the cute picture that's on the front of it...great idea!

Oh I TOTALLY agree, and they fit so much better

You know, the funny thing is, it actually crossed my mind to do that b/c I thought "how sad, the cute part is on the front and nobody will be able to see it; I should put it on so the cute part is on the back".....and then I guess I just figured the way the top part was cut I should put it on the way you put it on human babies, LOL. It's sort of "low cut" in the front now, but it really DOES fit much better around the butt and now the cute part can be visible and you don't have to cut it or anything.

The only thing I'd caution is for boys to make sure it's not too tight in the back end where the little "hangy thing" is, or the incision/sutures are, but with it turned this way, there's a little more room in the front than if you put it on the way it was intended.

Isn't it amazing what we learn here, LOL?

Oh I know, I learn something new on here everyday it seems, it's AWESOME!! I like it to now that you can see the pretty designs on it, plus now everyone knows she's Momma's Girl cause her onesie says so, hehehe The way it was cut I was thinking if I put it on the other way, it's be up to high on her neck and make her choke, but it actually is really loose there and fits pretty good!
