Anyone else totally and completely LOATHE button up sleepers for their babies? I freaking hate them. Takes me forever to figure the dang thing out and then I feel completely stupid when I look down and realize after five minutes of trying to figure out the leg buttons, I've still messed them up.


All sleepers should be zip up, I swear. SOOOO much simpler! LOL!


Just a little vent because I feel really stupid and incompetent when I look down and my child is giving me the stink eye because she can't move her legs, lol. What is wrong with me? HA!

I prefer the buttons but dh hates them for the same reason as you. I think the top of the zipper rubs on the babys chin or neck

My DH got to the point where he forbid them. His mother works at Macy's and he went there and had her help him pick out 6 zip up ones in the size he wore and six in the size up. It was very sweet.

I officially hate ALL sleepers. Crawling and sleepers were a nightmare. Walking/running and sleepers make me want to rip my arms off and just give up.

Thank god for two piece PJ's and a baby who is always hot and can also just sleep in a tshirt and be fine.

Oh wow. Luckily, that hasn't been an issue for us. What HAS been an issue is all the really cute sleepers being button up, lol. It takes me FOREVER to get them on her and she's looking at me like, "YOU'RE the adult here?" LOL!

Aww! That's sweet!

I find it really difficult to find really cute zip up sleepers, though. :( Any tips?
