Another silly question!

Hi! Im planning on breastfeeding and was wondering when i was looking at buying bits and pieces....do i really need bibs?? Or are these for when they start to eat foods?? I noticed you can buy them in newborn size but surely if breastfeeding you wont need them or will you?? I have lots of muslin squares already for winding but will i need bibs?? Thanks!xx

Thanks thats what I was hoping as it seems like another thing I can do without having to stock up on as well!xx

im sorry i found that funny

but it's true! I'm so adept at mopping up after baby smile (who is a dribble monster) that you could hire me instead of using bibs

we find the fabric bibs really usefuk for catching drool and the occasional possett

I've never used bibs but I'm starting to find I need them now he's teething, because he soaks a suit through with dribble in 2 minutes!

Wouldnt bother with bibs muslims will be fine

made me giggle as my OH actually asked in Babies r us whether they had any muslims... bless him. Luckily they knew what he meant! (he did go rather red when i pointed out his error!)

I rarely use a bit for Luke - definitely didn't in the first few weeks but he can be a bit sloppy and depending on how full my boobs are when I feed him, since I have a very fast let down, he can sometimes take too much and it ends up everywhere so I sometimes stick one on when I know that might happen (or when he has just been dressed for the day in something gorgeous and needs a feed LOL)

don't bother, I didn't use any bibs till Ash went on solids at 6 months.

when they're actually breastfeeding you don't need to mop anything. It's just after you've taken them off and are winding, etc. It's good to have a muslin on your shoulder,
