So it worries and bothers me. And I just don't want a wet/damp area on her chest and face for hours. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zippers-bunching#post-823820 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 10:36:03 +0000 aprk 823820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@shopaholic: is it bothering her, or are you worried about a rash? Or is it coming up over her face? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zippers-bunching#post-823816 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 10:33:08 +0000 shopaholic 823816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@aprk: hmm.. We've tried 4 different kinds of sleep sacks so far. I might have to just use a swaddle blanket on her body until she grows into them? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zippers-bunching#post-823810 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 10:30:30 +0000 aprk 823810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A has one zippered sleeper that does this ... It's like the zipper is too sturdy or something. I haven't figured a fix for it but it does concern me so I try to only put it on him during the day when I'm watching. I know that doesn't help you ... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zippers-bunching#post-823806 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 10:28:05 +0000 shopaholic 823806@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@tororojo: soaked from it being close to her mouth and she drools and kinda sucks on it when she's also sucking on her fist because it is in the way. Yeah I think I need som big safety pins to pin the bottoms of the sleep sacks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zippers-bunching#post-823786 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 10:20:05 +0000 tororojo 823786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Was she soaked from spit up or sweat? We haven't had that problem w/zippered sleepers. Maybe a smaller size sleeper would help? Or could you rig it and fold the bottom of the sleep sack to make it more shallow? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zippers-bunching#post-823717 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 09:39:15 +0000 shopaholic 823717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>bump? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/zippers-bunching#post-823416 Sat, 01 Jun 2013 00:24:37 +0000 shopaholic 823416@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really DETEST zippered things for K, at least so far. Maybe because she's still small? Zippered sleepers, zippered swaddles, and now the sleep sacks... they ALL bunch up around her chin!<br /> Because she is waking up at least 1x every night just to get her arms free, we've been trying to swaddle wean the past few nights and use sleep sacks. The other night when I picked her up, the sleep sack was completely soaked all around the neck/chin area. We've tried several different sleep sacks and they all do the same thing! I tug at the bottom when she's laid down, to try and keep the neck opening away from her chin, but it always eventually bunches up. Same thing with zippered sleepers. </p> <p>Anyone else have this problem? Is there a solution besides waiting for her to grow longer and have more neck strength? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snaps-or-zippers#post-804510 Thu, 23 May 2013 16:06:51 +0000 Mrsbells 804510@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I prefer snaps because i can change her without taking off the whole thing </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snaps-or-zippers#post-804503 Thu, 23 May 2013 16:05:15 +0000 runsyellowlites 804503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always preferred snaps down BOTH legs! I could just undo a couple &amp; easily change her... with the zippers it would wake her up more to pull her leg out. These days she rarely gets changed at night so she wears alot of top/bottom sets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snaps-or-zippers#post-804490 Thu, 23 May 2013 16:03:16 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 804490@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I voted both since I don't mind either one! Sometimes zippers can be annoying when they get stuck, but for the most part I love it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snaps-or-zippers#post-804482 Thu, 23 May 2013 16:02:13 +0000 tororojo 804482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I prefer zippers, but we mainly have snaps and they're not too bad. Just a little more complicated. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snaps-or-zippers#post-804294 Thu, 23 May 2013 15:32:10 +0000 Mrs. Pen 804294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>both!! I LOVE snaps - so adorable and I didn't find them to be a pain when LO was younger. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snaps-or-zippers#post-804287 Thu, 23 May 2013 15:31:08 +0000 Running Elley 804287@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely zippers! So much easier and my LO is a chunker so the zippers would eliminate the gaps that pop up between snaps around his especially chubby bits :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snaps-or-zippers#post-804253 Thu, 23 May 2013 15:26:24 +0000 keiki_mama 804253@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Zippers! It's quicker and with snaps I find LO's will often stick out of the little holes when he's crawling. It's hard to snap all those dang buttons when he's being squirmy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snaps-or-zippers#post-804213 Thu, 23 May 2013 15:20:22 +0000 ninja 804213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@zippylef: Agree completely! Loved them in NB, and some 3 month sizes...but now that he's a wiggler, it's zippers all the way! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snaps-or-zippers#post-804188 Thu, 23 May 2013 15:16:20 +0000 loveisstrange 804188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I liked the snaps when she was tiny, because i didnt have to expose her upper body. Zippers are better now </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snaps-or-zippers#post-804174 Thu, 23 May 2013 15:13:09 +0000 banana 804174@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same. I like the look of snaps but zippers are SOOOO much more convenient. My daughter is a little wiggle worm and it takes forever to dress her in snap sleepers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/snaps-or-zippers#post-804134 Thu, 23 May 2013 15:07:52 +0000 tinyperson 804134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you like sleepers with snaps or zippers?</p> <p>I like the look of the snap ones, but find zippers much easier in the middle of the night. I usually miss a snap or two and have to start over! </p>
