Bibs are a necessary item for most babies. We all know it but before you have a baby you have no idea what you will really be using them for. So for all those moms-to-be this should save you from drawers stuffed full with bibs you will never use.
1. Cotton bibs - virtually useless. For newborns and infants that spit up or drool this bib easily soaks through to the baby's clothes and usually has to be changed a couple times a day. It can be made of terry material, sweatshirt or t-shirt material. You can get them with back or side closure or pull over the baby's head.
2. Cotton vinyl lined bibs - this is my favorite for spit up or droolers but not good for new eaters because they have to be washed after every use.
3. Vinyl or plastic bibs - Great for new and seasoned eaters that make the occasional accidents because it can be wiped clean between uses and disinfected but not absorent for drool or spit up.
4. Sleeved bibs - Great for little artists and particularily messy eaters but only the ones made of plastic or vinyl otherwise you have to wash between every use.
At this time, I have drooler, a messy eater and a little artist so we are packing the arsenol of bibs. So save yourself the laundry and expense and buy only what you need. Good luck!
