For a non messy snack we don't use them. She's a messy eater! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-bibs#post-2652428 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 22:19:01 +0000 Rocker2014 2652428@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO has always despised bibs so I stopped forcing it before 16 mos. She's 2 now and I still wish she would tolerate wearing one. Instead, I just don't feed her a lot of messy foods! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-bibs#post-2652427 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 22:15:58 +0000 Mrs Spoon 2652427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD is 3 and we still use them at every meal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-bibs#post-2652359 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 19:45:56 +0000 erinbaderin 2652359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He was probably around 2. I would have liked to use them longer but they stopped putting them on him at daycare so he started refusing them at home too. He gets messy sometimes but I figure it's dinner, the clothes are coming off soon anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-bibs#post-2652247 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 15:49:20 +0000 mamainthesun 2652247@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He refused to wear them around 20 months. It just seemed easier to let him get dirty than have him get all worked up and not eat after. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-bibs#post-2652234 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 15:24:59 +0000 MamaG 2652234@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My younger stopped very early, around one maybe sooner. She's generally a neat eater and doesn't tolerate a mess. My older stopped around two I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-bibs#post-2652233 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 15:24:07 +0000 youboots 2652233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We usually feed her in just a diaper.

We started eating shirtless (and honestly, still do sometimes...he's 2.5!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-bibs#post-2652215 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 14:29:46 +0000 brownepiano 2652215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS is 2.5 and stopped using a bib a while ago. I think even before he turned 2. He's pretty neat though and asks for a napkin pretty often. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-bibs#post-2652206 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 14:05:16 +0000 MrsF 2652206@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Somewhere between 3 and 3.5. I remember thinking that she would never be able to eat without a bib, but somehow it happened! </p> <p>Now I feel the same way about my almost 2 year old, of course. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-bibs#post-2652205 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 14:03:58 +0000 Anagram 2652205@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 3.5 year old still wears them, unless she's out in public or eating something really dry. Anything sauce or drippy, and she wears a bib. She wears the same clothes all day and we have rarely ever had stains. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-bibs#post-2652203 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 14:01:45 +0000 ocean81 2652203@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She started ripping them off pretty early! These worked great for awhile but she figured out pretty quickly how to pull them over her head. It was 14 months maybe when we started eating topless, ha.<br /> <a href="https://www.walmart.com/ip/27130749?wmlspartner=wlpa&#038;adid=22222222228019230695&#038;wl0=&#038;wl1=g&#038;wl2=m&#038;wl3=45287541272&#038;wl4=pla-88658363072&#038;wl5=9002029&#038;wl6=&#038;wl7=9002016&#038;wl8=&#038;wl9=pla&#038;wl10=8175035&#038;wl11=online&#038;wl12=27130749&#038;wl13=&#038;veh=sem" rel="nofollow">https://www.walmart.com/ip/27130749?wmlspartner=wlpa&#038;adid=22222222228019230695&#038;wl0=&#038;wl1=g&#038;wl2=m&#038;wl3=45287541272&#038;wl4=pla-88658363072&#038;wl5=9002029&#038;wl6=&#038;wl7=9002016&#038;wl8=&#038;wl9=pla&#038;wl10=8175035&#038;wl11=online&#038;wl12=27130749&#038;wl13=&#038;veh=sem</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-lo-stop-using-bibs#post-2652202 Mon, 14 Nov 2016 14:01:35 +0000 delight 2652202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 3 year old wears a bib every meal!

I never found that to interfere with functionality, though. I still use them when she eats out over her other bib so that any liquids don't sit against her neck/chin and irritate the skin. To me it seems like when you wash/dry them and they "shrink" (which in my opinion is pretty minimal) they actually become more absorbent. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-bibs-for-drool#post-951267 Sun, 21 Jul 2013 22:25:02 +0000 wheres_c 951267@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love miniclub!

I probably need some more but I'll wait til after she gets here. Or tell our parents so they can get them lol. They love excuses to buy for her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washcloths-amp-bibs#post-553101 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 21:39:26 +0000 shopaholic 553101@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks for everyone's input! I bought a pack of 12 thin little washcloths at TJ Maxx today - 12 for only $4.99! :) We'll see if we need any more than that till after baby gets here! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washcloths-amp-bibs#post-552952 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 19:58:17 +0000 travelgirl1 552952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: we use baby washcloth for sooo much, washing her eyes, face and hands with every morning, wiping up spit up, holding over a boob that randomly lets down and drying her bum off after every diaper change (helps prevent rashes). So we have tons but we got dollar store packs so didn't spend too much and we use them all. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washcloths-amp-bibs#post-552870 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 19:20:51 +0000 mrslace 552870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh I recognize some of these usernames from Weddingbee! My LO is 12 weeks today. I have 15-20 bibs. I do laundry every 3-4 days depending on what's going on, but I recently went out to buy more bibs because I feel like we blast through them. I keep 3 bibs in his diaper bag constantly in case he spits up and soaks through it and I need backups. I've also accidentally dropped them on the ground and had to go to backups. My baby has about 7 bottles a day. Sometimes he's not too messy and we can use the bib again, but sometimes he spits up and then that bib goes into the hamper. I'd say I use at LEAST 3-4 bibs a day. </p> <p>As for the washcloths, I have the A&amp;A ones and in the beginning, it was actually too big to use on his little body. I also bought 2 packs of the Target Circo brand ones that are really thin. They work fine for us. I have maybe 12 washcloths, but I only use 2 for each bathtime (one for face and one for body) so I never run out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washcloths-amp-bibs#post-552779 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 17:45:40 +0000 Mommy Finger 552779@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I keep forgetting to put bibs on ds but he's already such a drooler at 12w. He also spits up so burn rags are a must. I ended up cutting some receiving blankets I got as hand me downs and am constantly running out if them. We also have a ton of washcloths and use 2-3 per bath every day. I actually like the smaller cheap ones better than the larger A&amp;A ones we have. Don't really use those yet. Maybe when he's older </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washcloths-amp-bibs#post-552435 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 15:04:40 +0000 LuLu Mom 552435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was baby laundry every other day so one package of washcloths is fine, we have way too many. Bibs we honestly have 20+ and we need them, she's a spitter so we go through 5-10 a day! I would hold off until you know if you need them though. We hvae some pretty ones and some plain ones we got in a pack of 10 from Target. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/washcloths-amp-bibs#post-552428 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 15:00:27 +0000 littlek 552428@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Boogie wipes are awesome!!! I have them everywhere around the house. </p> <p>We go through a ton of bibs because LO is teething. I also like have a lot of burp clothes since LO spits up sometimes and also our dogs steal them so they are sometimes hard to find. </p>
