LO is 11.5 months and running/walking. she's always slept in 1 piece zip up sleepers, and ever since she was around 9 months i've bought the ones with the little grippers on the feet so she didn't slip when walking around before bedtime. But I was thinking maybe it's time to switch to 2 piece pjs! Did you switch when your LO started walking? or some other time? the only thing that makes me hesitant is that we'd have to start putting her in socks. i hate socks! so...when did you switch? and any recs for 12 month PJs? are there any 2 pieces with footed no-slip bottoms or is that wishful thinking?

I still have DS (26 months) in footed jammies, he always takes his socks off in bed so I don't want his feet to get cold (he won't stay under a blanket either). I will probably start putting him in 2 piece jammies when we potty train.
-
DS is 2 years old (24 months) and we still have in one piece footed jammies, especially during the winter. Summer/Spring time we'll mix in 2 piece jammies too.
-
I still prefer one piece PJs at 2.5. The two piece ones always creep up so his belly and calves are exposed. We'll probably have to stop with them when he potty trains.
-
Once he was potty trained around 2, it was really inconvenient, but we had him in both types up until that point. My husband just bought him a pair on sale, but he refuses to wear them!
-
Just recently, my son is 4! I tried the two piece pjs but his back was always exposed, so now I buy sets in two sizes and mix and match to make sure he has a longer shirt.
-
We have had him in both since he was about 1. I use the one piece for colder nights and the two pieces for warmer nights. Just depends on the temp and my mood. hah.
-
LO still wears them in the winter months and she is almost 3 and potty trained.
-
Wow, I must be in the minority. We started putting DD in Two Piece sets in the summer (at 10 months) and haven't looked back!
-
LO is 2.5 and still in 1-piece jammies. She's always in 1-piece in the winter, and only in 2-piece when it's super, super hot in the summer.
-
@Ocean girl: haha that's kinda what i expected everyone to say!
wow, so sounds like the consensus is to just stick to the 1 pieces for a while! I didn't think about the fact that the two pieces would expose her stomach too...that's a great point. sounds like we should use the one pieces at least through the winter.
-
We started two piece sets once she was walking, 10.5 months since they footed ones in her size didn't have the grippers on them. She is now almost 21 months and we are using them again for the winter on the really cold nights cause she rips off socks.
-
We started two pieces right around/after C's first birthday. Quite honestly though, she has always run very warm and doesn't need socks at night. As it started getting colder, I would check her feet throughout the night and they are always toasty. We recently put her in a one piece due to laundry desperation and she HATED it. Sounds like we are definitely in the minority, though! Like with everything, I say just do what feels right/doesn't make you crazy.
-
@Pirouette: When it was cool, but not cold enough for fleece, we would just put a onsie under his 2 piece and socks, then his tummy wasn't exposed.
-
I actually just had to buy LO2 two piece pajamas last night because she was getting her legs stuck up by her belly in the one piece ones, even the tight fitting ones! So now I have to try and get some good deals on two piece ones since she has like 15 of the one piece ones, gah!
-
My LO tends to get cold easily, so she sleeps in a one-piece even now at 16 months. I imagine we will keep them until she's potty trained.
-
I kept DS in them until at least 2, by 2.5 it was summer so he wasn't using them then, obviously. After that, he was potty trained and we had to go with 2 pieces.
-
We switched once she was 18 months, in anticipation of potty training.
-
I prefer two-piece pjs now that she's walking. I started using them in the summer. It's easier for us because she has such a long torso and short legs. The sleepers that fit her torso are absolutely huge in the legs.
-
We went through a phase where we only did 2 piece because 1 pieces didn't fit her slight frame (no matter what brand I tried.) We are back in footies (at her insistence.) She still wears pull ups at night so it's okay, but they will be retired once we potty train fully.
-
2.5, still wear them. They're so snuggly.
-
We moved to two piece PJ's when E was around 10 months but she sleeps in a sleep sack so we don't have to worry about her feet getting cold. We may have to go back to one piece sleepsuits when we move to a duvet!
-
I switched DS1 once he grew out of the 12 month size which was around 8 months or so. He still wasn't walking and I don't like the kind with the plastic feet if they aren't walking. With DS2 he outgrew the 9 month size at around 5-6 months. I've bought him some with no feet and use socks. I really wish they sold they 12 months and larger with soft not plastic feet. Some of us have big old chubby babies!
-
I think we switched around 9 months, at the mo DS wears a long sleeve onesie with 2 piece footed pjs over the top, and then a sleep sack over that. I do tuck his pj top into his bottoms as well so it doesn't get rucked up in the night. Tbh I have no idea why we switched, I think I just saw some cute pjs that happened to be 2 pieces!
-
DS (just 2) wears one-piece footed pjs. On occasion he wears two-pieces, but I don't love them (because of the socks).
-
I plan to keep using one-piece sleepers as long as we can! We use a sleepsack so I don't bother with socks when we use sleepers without feet, since her toes stay warm enough (since it's chilly out, we use a sleepsack with a fleece lining and it's pretty toasty). Carter's also makes 12-mo sized one-pieces with grippy bottoms -- not sure if they have larger sizes, though.
-
We quit when she refused to wear them. She had a belly button obsession for a while that kept us from putting them on her. It was around 20 months.
-
@PurplePeony: she is currently in the carter's 12 month with the grippies! i just wasn't sure if i should order her a few more or move on to the 2 piece pjs...but it sounds like i should stick with the 1 pieces as long as LO will wear them i guess! we ditched the sleep sack when she was between sizes a few months ago, and i just don't see her liking it if we tried to bring it back at this stage.
-
DH made me stop putting her in them when she was a year old.
-
DD is 2.5 and she wears both. She almost exclusively wears one pieces in winter.
-
At 21 months she wears one pieces in the winter and two piece in the summer. She won't keep socks on and the shirts always ride up, so I am afraid of her getting cold in the winter. And then summers are so hot here so I like her in shorts and a tshirt.
-
When he started walking... so sometime after 13 months I switched him to 2 piece sets. Easier to change him! He sleeps with a long sleeved tee/pants set under a warm sleep sack.
-
Never is my plan! One pieces contain blow outs more effectively lol!
-
Babies/toddlers look SOOOOOO cute in one pieces, I never want to stop!
-
Once she was walking. Most of the them didn't have grippy feet, and then it was Spring/Summer, so we went to two-pieces.
-
it's freezing here in the winters, so she is still in footed fleece (she was 2 in september).
-
One piece fleece jammies in the winter, a short and t shirt Jammie set in the summer (or nothing but a diaper if it's real warm).....she'll take socks off so I like the footed jammies
-
Around 8 months we switched because it was summer. He hasn't worn them since. Although I did just get him one so he could match his baby sister. He wears long-sleeved, long pants + a warm sleep sack. I imagine if we didn't do sleep sack, I would do footed jams.
-
We made the switch in the summer, so 18 months, but have been having some sleep + going #2 issues and have had to go back to one-pieces to contain things, aka not let her have access to her diaper.
-
At 18 months, we transitioned to 2-piece for the summer. I expected to transition back to 1-piece for the winter, but she has refused
She like to have her feet out and unexposed (interestingly enough, I actually sleep like that, too)! So she's in two-piece fleece pj's and socks, though the socks always come off at some point.
