I can't return 2 of them...here's hoping I can return the one from Macy's w/out a GC! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-518143 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 17:16:45 +0000 Sweet T 518143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had a robe and never used it. Try to get real terry cloth towels! We were gifted some thinner non-terry cloth towels and they were useless. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-518095 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 16:43:18 +0000 autumnlove 518095@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never had one but we used a hooded towel. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-518057 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 16:16:45 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 518057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not practical...we only ever used ours when we ran out of hooded towels. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-518037 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 16:04:31 +0000 GrapeCrush 518037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>useless. we got 2 and he wore each once, just so we could say he wore them. hooded towels are the way to go! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-518034 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 16:03:28 +0000 mamabolt 518034@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got one as a gift and I returned it right away, didnt' see any situation in which we would use it.

She has 2 hooded towels and 2 fluffy normal towels and it seems enough. I may get her another hooded towel though and later add a hood to her fluffy towels. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-517905 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 14:45:54 +0000 Mrsbells 517905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I dont think they are practical, I just prefer using a regular adult towel </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-517898 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 14:42:50 +0000 pelikila 517898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We never used the one we were given.

It just didn't cover anything! I gave it away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-517888 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 14:36:42 +0000 heffalump 517888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got one bathrobe that we never used, and I ended up handing down to my SIL. It's just too much work to put their little hands in the arm holes when you have towels that don't make you do that.</p> <p>I love love love hooded towels, LO is 18 months and just grew out of her baby hooded towels so we got her bigger toddler towels, even though most people suggest to just use adult towels now. But I can't resist a cute hooded towel! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-517887 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 14:35:19 +0000 MsMini 517887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would return all of the bathrobes, or keep 1 max for cute pictures. I think they would be a massive PITA. Wrestling a wet baby into a towel is one thing, trying to get their arms into the sleeves would be ridic and they would get all cold while you were doing it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-517884 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 14:35:00 +0000 travelgirl1 517884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh I looove the robe we bought A. We used to put her in it to nurse after her bath when we'd coconut oiled her up so her pjs wouldn't get greasy and it was so warm and snuggly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-517880 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 14:32:00 +0000 matador84 517880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hooded towels, sorry. I have used a bathrobe on an infant and they aren't as quick/convenient IMO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-517837 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 14:10:30 +0000 shopaholic 517837@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@matador84: 5 bathrobes or hooded towels? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-517756 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 13:40:56 +0000 chopsuey 517756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Robes are a pain in the booty.<br /> Even at 22 months old, towels are so much more convenient.<br /> I have 2 hooded towels, but honestly, I just use adult towels on my kids. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-517753 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 13:40:29 +0000 matador84 517753@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We got 5 and we've used like 3. The PBK ones are soooo soft! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-517748 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 13:39:32 +0000 mrs. bird 517748@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i think baby robes are pretty useless. if you can exchange them, i would. PB kids has great towels. i've heard good things about 3 sprouts towels as well, but i haven't used one of theirs. you don't need that many, i think 3 would be plenty for hooded towels. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-517734 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 13:36:14 +0000 Boogs 517734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When my LO got sponge baths, we used them every day to keep him warm while we watched different parts and kept the rest of him covered. Otherwise, we never used them after that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baby-bathrobes#post-517729 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 13:33:59 +0000 shopaholic 517729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So surprisingly, we only received one baby towel from both of our baby showers. But I now have 3 baby bathrobes: 1 terry, 1 Juicy, and 1 used. Are the baby bathrobes practical and useful? I am wondering about returning one of them if I can. If you had them, did use them a lot?<br /> And now I'm free to buy myself baby hooded towels - I'd been holding off since I heard you get so many at the shower! </p>
