Baby wetsuits.

Do they actually keep baby warm? We went swimming yesterday and had to get out after 5 minutes as she started cryng and her bottom lip was shaking from the cold . Thought I would invest in a wetsuit as we've been trying to go regularly but she keeps getting cold quickly.
Looking at this.

Or this as it looks easier to get babies into but doesn't look very warm as the water will get in it .

Yes they actually do!
We use the type like the second one and its really thick and warm plus everyone asks where its from as its so cute

I take Es to waterbabies and they are highly reccommended by them too and have them to borrow if its cold, infact when I first started taking her I was told to take our wetsuit off as the water was far too warm and she was in danger of over heating.

Absolutely fantastic. We use one when we take Becky swimming and she's never been cold. Edit: I'm also referring to the second one.

the 2nd type DO let water in but the water insulates your LO, just like a real wetsuit

Yes definitely - basically it lets a layer of water get in that heats up to body temperature keeping your LO warm. If you use a sunsuit it will basically turn cold and soggy very quickly!

We also have the 2nd type and love it. When I take it off my LO's belly feels warm
