Like when I was little and ran around everywhere in bare feet. Whereas now, my feet are too sensitive to be out in bare feet most of the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-your-crawling-baby-wear-in-the-summer#post-1566483 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 22:35:45 +0000 skibobrown 1566483@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For daycare we always dressed DD in capri pants last summer. Her class went out to the playground every day, and I wanted her to be able to crawl around without skinning her knees. We definitely needed some tough capri pants -- jeans or canvas worked best. Leggings would get holes in them way too fast from crawling on the playground. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-your-crawling-baby-wear-in-the-summer#post-1566415 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 21:21:26 +0000 Foodnerd81 1566415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rachiecakes: @delight: @catlady: I think i am 1) overthinking this, and 2) trying to convince myself not to buy too many things. Like everything from the zutano sale on zulily right now. </p> <p>She is a leggings and tunic kind of girl anyway so glad that will work :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-your-crawling-baby-wear-in-the-summer#post-1566360 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 20:46:48 +0000 rachiecakes 1566360@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never thought of this! But then again DS didn't crawl for long </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-your-crawling-baby-wear-in-the-summer#post-1566359 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 20:45:52 +0000 delight 1566359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never even thought of this! LO is just starting to crawl. Unfortunately I already bought her some rompers, shorts and dresses. Hurts to look pretty doesn't it? ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-your-crawling-baby-wear-in-the-summer#post-1566340 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 20:38:17 +0000 autumn865 1566340@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We never really had a problem with her wearing shorts during the summer with crawling. Just no cute dresses :( Norah had a few and we would tie them back like a little tail so it wouldn't get caught on her knees lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-your-crawling-baby-wear-in-the-summer#post-1566272 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 20:13:39 +0000 catlady 1566272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh I didn't even think of this! I think LO will be crawling soon and I have all these cute little summer dresses lined up for her. Oops! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-your-crawling-baby-wear-in-the-summer#post-1566226 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 20:00:41 +0000 Bookish 1566226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've been keeping G in leggings. Her poor little knees are getting all torn up when I put her in shorts or dressed. I plan to switch to capris when it gets really warm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-your-crawling-baby-wear-in-the-summer#post-1566221 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 19:59:16 +0000 mrsjazz 1566221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She wore a lot of tunics and leggings. I still put leggings under her dresses even though she walks because she's still getting down on the floor a lot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-your-crawling-baby-wear-in-the-summer#post-1566214 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 19:57:37 +0000 mrskc 1566214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS was crawling all last summer last year. He wore shorts all the time. We have tile floors. You could see that his knees were darker (like a callus or something) but never seemed to bother him. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-your-crawling-baby-wear-in-the-summer#post-1566201 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 19:52:27 +0000 swedishfish 1566201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hahaha, I was thinking about this a few days ago. I have avoided buying dresses but I've bought a few rompers, capri leggings, and even shorts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-your-crawling-baby-wear-in-the-summer#post-1566200 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 19:52:18 +0000 mrsjyw 1566200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He wore shorts all the time :) He was crawling most of the summer last year...we sometimes put him in baby leggings, but he didn't really like them (neither did dh)... so we just let him be. most of the time we was ok, sometimes his knees were pink....but then he learned this funky crawl where he picked up his knees if they were bothering him...or when he crawled on tile :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-did-your-crawling-baby-wear-in-the-summer#post-1566194 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 19:51:02 +0000 Foodnerd81 1566194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Did you have to keep them in pants to protect their knees all the time?</p> <p>I expect C will be crawling most of the summer, so I'm resisting buying adorable little dresses that will just get caught under her knees (right?) But rompers! They are so cute! Will she tear up her knees if they aren't protected? We have hard wood and area rugs, but we will probably spend time outside a lot too. </p> <p>Curious what others found worked best. Obviously this is a pressing matter. :silly: </p>
