I can't speak for other brands, but I buy our jeans at BabyGap and they're super soft and stylish, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1200125 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 16:19:12 +0000 bhbee 1200125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we have an Old Navy pair she complains about - meant to be skinny and though she's not big I can see the waist is uncomfortable. but we have several pairs of faux jeggings (can find at Target) that are really stretch knit pants with topstitching to look like jeans and those are awesome and seem super comfy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1200123 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 16:13:49 +0000 sarac 1200123@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only put mine in jeggings or very soft jeans. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1200071 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 15:52:20 +0000 Boheme 1200071@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it just depends on the jeans! DS has pairs from both Gap and Children's Place that are almost as soft as knit pants. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1200059 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 15:46:29 +0000 sandy 1200059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We definitely prefer leggings/jeggings over jeans. Jeans are so darn cute but they are more restrictive when she is at a playground or play gym (climbing up the slide or into the bouncy house). I haven't put her in jeans since about 18 months bc she likes to climb and play. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1200029 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 15:36:16 +0000 T-Mom 1200029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DS only likes jeans that are elastic waist because the button or zipper digs in, and they have to be supersoft. Even my DD at age 5 still really dislikes jeans, especially skinny jeans. She is skinny too. They just are too restrictive, I think. She prefers jeggings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1200022 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 15:34:10 +0000 shopaholic 1200022@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We were handed down a pair with zipper and snaps. I didn't think those seemed comfy. I just recently put her in a pair of knit waistband jeggings from Baby Gap. They seem comfier, but still not as comfy as leggings. I think once she's walking though, they'd be fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199994 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 15:23:09 +0000 winniebee 1199994@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>T wears jeans from the Gap - I don't think they are uncomfortable for him and he moves just fine. I do usually change him into sweats for naps though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199968 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 15:09:37 +0000 lamariniere 1199968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My almost 3-year-old wears jeans almost every day, but only knit waist ones work for him and his belly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199937 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 14:57:28 +0000 MrsF 1199937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>M wears jeans from Carters and she seems comfortable and mobile in them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199920 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 14:53:49 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1199920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends on the jeans. Gap and children's place are our favorite brands and he doesn't seem to mind them at all </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199915 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 14:52:29 +0000 Beehive 1199915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm sure leggings or sweatpants are more comfortable, but I think baby jeans are so cute! And LO doesn't seem to mind wearing them. Some are very soft (especially the ones he wore when he was tiny, those were like butter), but even the skinny ones don't seem that bad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199887 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 14:46:14 +0000 looch 1199887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cascademom: Yeah, I try, but sometimes, it doesn't work out or my son is being too opinionated and doesn't want to take off his pants....I am a path of least resistance kind of mom! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199808 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 14:17:04 +0000 autumnlove 1199808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think they are stiff and uncomfortable but they haven't been worn &amp; washed a lot! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199800 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 14:15:17 +0000 cascademom 1199800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: We usually take off LO's pants and put him in a sleepsack for naps on the weekends. It's his no pants time minus his running around in a diaper and socks last night when he threw the biggest tantrum about going to bed not once, but twice. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199775 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 14:05:18 +0000 looch 1199775@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Also, part of the reason I don't dress my son in jeans a lot is because he still gets a nap at daycare or on the weekend, and I don't get into bed wearing my jeans, so I kind of carried that over to him...he probably woulnd't care. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199774 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 14:05:06 +0000 MamaJ 1199774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I put LO in jeans if we are going out. Sometimes I change him into sweatpants after we get home because he does seem to have difficulty moving in certain ones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199754 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 14:00:24 +0000 LuLu Mom 1199754@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At 13 months I have jeans but rarely put her in them, I think she gets around in leggings/pants better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199739 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 13:57:30 +0000 cascademom 1199739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have two pairs of jeans for LO in 12 months size. One pair is a hand me down. When he was picked up from daycare, he didn't have them on because he had some trouble walking with them. I also have the most adorable pair of skinny jeans for him from Carter's. Those he can walk around in better. I like dressing LO in baby sweats and fleece pants. He seems comfortable in them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199706 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 13:47:05 +0000 shinymama 1199706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO wears jeans about 5 days a week - they're durable, cute, comfy, and we don't live in a cold climate. And no, they haven't interfered with his inner daredevil. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199702 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 13:46:01 +0000 mrskc 1199702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Now that he's walking, I put him in jeans all the time. I love the pull on knit waist ones from baby gap. I feel like they are super comfy but makes him look stylish. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199701 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 13:45:56 +0000 mediagirl 1199701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have some great handed down jeans that are super soft - almost softer than some of the Carter's khaki pants. I think the number of washes these went through (two girls before mine) probably played a role. I notice my toddler doesn't like jeans if they're stiff and new but if they're broken in and soft, she doesn't seem to care. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199699 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 13:44:50 +0000 Smurfette 1199699@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>R is almost 8 months and I haven't noticed she seems uncomfortable in them at all. She crawls just as fast in jeans as she does in leggings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199689 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 13:41:27 +0000 Freckles 1199689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't put DD in jeans for those reasons. I find that the girl jeans (and skinny jeans) seem a little too snug. I think they're fine when they're walking or sitting, but not so great if they want to climb onto things. Hmmm, maybe i should start putting her in jeans... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199687 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 13:40:35 +0000 looch 1199687@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have one pair of jeans for my almost 3 year old, at any given time, he wasn't really wearing jeans, in all honesty.</p> <p>I prefer pants that are lined with either fleece or jersey and have a pull on waist, so it's a bit limiting. I have found jeans with a knit waistband, but they're not lined, so not ideal in the winter...I actually think jeans aren't all that warm, even for me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199676 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 13:37:46 +0000 Silva 1199676@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have any for my LO, but she is still tiny and immobile, I think once they are walking they make more sense. Particularly when it's cold or for rough play! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199675 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 13:37:44 +0000 KT326 1199675@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I put my 19 month old in jeans a lot, but I have noticed that depending on the fit he can't climb quite as easily. I try to send him to daycare in comfy pants like fleece or sweats and then dress him in his cute jeans on the weekends. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-jeans-that-uncomfortable-for-lo#post-1199671 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 13:35:27 +0000 stargal 1199671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always dress my toddler in jeans (most of the time when he was a older baby too!) I see all these posts about how they look stiff and uncomfortable, but I never noticed that with P. he gets around fine in them and is able to run, climb, etc. I like that they protect his little knees when he crawls. </p>
