Both my kids got their feet out between the gaps of the snaps and would cry because their feet were out. Ugh. Plus it takes forever to get all the snaps back on (especially in the dark!). Zippers take one second and they're good to go. They do bunch up and look funny with the bumps but I don't care... the less time they spend whining on the changing table while I fumble with snaps, the better! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1023182 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 07:41:04 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1023182@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I liked snaps in the beginning so her top would stay warm. With a super wiggly seven month old I'm only buying zippers now, she can kick the snaps apart! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1023175 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 07:38:03 +0000 looch 1023175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Zippers, now that my son wants to dress himself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1023154 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 07:26:02 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1023154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HLK208: oh the metal zippers are the worst! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1023138 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 07:14:43 +0000 heffalump 1023138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Zippers are way easier with my wiggly girl. She has some dresses that have buttons on the back. Even 3 buttons take forever because she won't sit still long enough! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1023134 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 07:03:47 +0000 Mrs. Tricycle 1023134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love zippered sleepers cause he's just way too wiggly for snaps now, but I do hate zippered hoodies, which always seem to rub his little cheeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1023048 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 03:40:34 +0000 .twist. 1023048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hate that I have to remove L completely from an outfit for diaper changes with zippers. Snaps I only have to take the bottom off! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1023044 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 03:23:04 +0000 mediagirl 1023044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love zippered sleepers! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1023027 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 02:45:03 +0000 loveisstrange 1023027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always preferred snaps when she was an infant. However, snap sleepers run shorter than zippered ones randomly, so she always outgrew them super quick. </p> <p>As a toddler, I prefer zippers now since she doesnt like to sit still long enough to do snaps. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1022941 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 00:40:19 +0000 cyndistar3 1022941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With how fast they get away I love zippers! I can never get buttons and snaps done right unless I want to make my lo scream bloody murder for holding her still too long. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1022935 Fri, 16 Aug 2013 00:37:28 +0000 sunny 1022935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I preferred sleepers with snaps only because LO would get cold if I unzipped her all the way. Those Circo ones sound good though! Maybe for our next one I'll get some of those. When my deQuervains was really bad I had a hard time doing up the snaps :-( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1022906 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 23:47:52 +0000 HLK208 1022906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love zippers! Until DS started potty training and had a hard time zipping properly without hurting himself :(</p> <p>Oh but there was also one carters hoodie that DD had as a newborn with a metal zipper and I hated it! So rough on those new little cheeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1022903 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 23:44:49 +0000 MsMini 1022903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I despise zippers on sleepers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1022902 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 23:44:19 +0000 autumnlove 1022902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hate snaps and buttons. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1022900 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 23:39:40 +0000 Corduroy 1022900@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My favorite are the Circo sleepers that zip from the bottom so you don't have to expose the belly during changes. The zipper bunches but it doesn't bother me. </p> <p>Snaps are cute but I get them misaligned almost every time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1022896 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 23:36:08 +0000 googly-eyes 1022896@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Zippers. The Circo brand ones from target zip down to close meaning you can still have the top zipped up for diaper changes. Snaps are such a pain on sleepers. On other things I like snaps though, like sweaters. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1022842 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 22:35:07 +0000 yin 1022842@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I prefer zippers for sleepers. Buttons take forever, and it's the worse when you skip one and realize it at the very end. Then you have to unsnap and do it all over again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1022838 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 22:33:27 +0000 stargal 1022838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love zippers! snaps can get annoying! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1022834 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 22:32:04 +0000 Foodnerd81 1022834@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only have snapped sleepers in nb size but I like that I can leave the top snapped during changes, and I can unsnap one or two at the bottom to check her diaper. Never used a zippered one yet but I always hear the same, that mins like them better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1022800 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 22:08:19 +0000 ALV91711 1022800@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I liked the snapped sleepers as they are easier for diaper changes. Although sometimes I have a hard time doing them up properly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-dont-like-zippers#post-1022747 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 21:43:35 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1022747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was told by veteran moms that zippered sleepers are the way to go and avoid buttons/snaps at all costs... </p> <p>I hate zippers. I avoid buying sleepers with zippers. They bunch up, when J was little they would rub on his chin or face, they don't look very nice and for me personally I just find buttons and snaps easier and still do! And zippered hoodies?! They're the worst. I prefer button up cardigans for him. As a toddler they're more manageable though.</p> <p>Do you prefer zippers or buttons/snaps? </p>
