DS has started to drool TONS. I'm changing his clothes several times a day because they're sopping wet. I put a bib on him today, but it lasted 10 minutes before it was soaked since he chewed on it. I don't think he's teething yet, but he wants to put everything in his mouth and he's extra slobbery 
What do you use if your baby drools a lot?

Lots and lots of bibs and washcloths. K was McDrooly until recently. I think from 2-5 months, she was just a drool monster. She wears a Baltic Amber Teething Necklace all day, and that supposedly helps some. We still go through so.many.bibs eveyr day, but I notice on the days I forget her necklace, she drools like a St. Bernard!

@LazyLightning: I stupidly thought when i was pregnant we only needed about 8-10 bibs! Looks like I will be going shopping

@shopaholic: I've been looking at those! I know someone who makes them so I should put an order in.

@grizz: Yeah, we only had the bibs that were gifts or part of a set. I can't stop buying them now...

those lined green sprouts bibs are great. Also I swear that LO's amber necklace seemed to decrease her drooling.

I loved the green sprouts lined bibs too. At least he wasn't soaking through shirts even though we had to change bibs a lot!

lots of bibs! we had the mum 2 mum bandana bibs, which we find holds a ridiculous amount of liquid, and because of the shape they would sit right up under the chin and catch all the drool. we would go through easily 5 a day

We just wipe her up...since she doesn't wear clothes at home, it's not too bad! We also have teething bibs and just put the amber necklace on her

We just used a lot of bibs! Don't forget to wipe in the folds of the neck else your LO will get rashy

@grizz: There are some bibs at Target that are cloth on top and a more waterproof layer on the bottom. They helped protect outfits for us. Of course they'd get wet, too, but I bout 6 of those and had at least 15 more for a really bad day.

@JerricaBenton: I agree! Since we started using the amber necklace, my super drooly baby dried right up.
@grizz: They come in anklets and bracelets if you aren't comfortable with a necklace.

Hehe sometimes I would layer the bibs... Put two or three on at once and just take off the top layer as they got wet... Let it dry and reuse:) I didn't let them get too soaked though cause I was afraid of rashes and irritation. It's just a phase though that comes and goes with age:)

DS hates bibs and the amber necklace did nothing for him. So we just deal with it. He gets changed a lot.
