Swimsuits?

[LilyMac]

Ive seen a few bubbas on here wearing an all in one swim thing, but I cant find a single shop that sells them for babies, theyre all 1year+
Does anyone know where I can get them from? Or is it ok just to put a swim nappy and some shorts on him when we go swimming?
So confused!

Mothercare and boots do them xx

 

[inky]

I got one from Next - I've seen them in Matalan too

 

[LilyMac]

Ooooh thanks girls I never thought to look in boots or matalan!!

 

[MrsR]

Tesco does them too x x

 

[MrsR]

Though tbh we just put a swim nappy and swim shorts (also tesco) on Seb when we take him swimming and he's absolutely fine x

 

[ZMD]

We got ours from Tesco But now she just has swim Nappy and pretty swimming costume xx

I looked online at tesco earlier and couldn't see any! I've seen a cute one from matalan so I think I'll get that, do they keep them warm or just protect from the sun? I have no idea about anything when it comes to swimming!
Where were going on holiday they've got a heated indoor pool but on the offchance of it being nice enough to use the outdoor one I'd love to take him in that, I'll need a hat and waterproof sunscreen too won't I? Are babies allowed in the sun at all?

I was going to suggest matalan too

Matalan had a lovely tigger one i want to get h in the summer its an all in one one with hat!! Also i got h some baby sunglasses from Tesco yesterday for £2!!

As much as I love to dress A in a pink cossy I don't think he'd be impressed
I really didn't know boots did things like that! I'm gonna have a butchers in matalan for the tigger one, though I won't hold my breath co whenever I go in store to find somethingfor him they've never got his size anywhere
Everyone in Birmingham must have kids 3-6 months and that's why I can never get anything lol

I got one from next, theyre really good. You will also need a hat and the special baby sunblock. Babys are fine in the sun and generally catch it really easily.. They say tokeep themoutof the sun between 12-3 when its at its hottest though. Also the baby sunglasses that attatch round there heads are good too.

 

[inky]

Definitely get glasses that go round the head, I can't get C to keep his on (that's if I get them on at all lol!)

, I'll need a hat and waterproof sunscreen too won't I? Are babies allowed in the sun at all?

Are you kidding? Lol Alanna is pure white irish skin, and i moved to the middle east. Shes 3 months and goes out in the sun FINE without sunscreen. The only problem with her n the sun is getting to hot! I take her in the pool occasionally in the afternoons just in a swimnappy swimsuits are a faff to get off a grumpy tired baby! Just be sensible with the sun and your fine.

lilymac glad u posted this as i was wondering the same thing too!!! im off out to buy him some as were eplanning a trip to italy soon!!! =) cant wait to see him in swimwear! & mommkat.. you really dont use any sunscreen at all?!?! my lo is half italian and has deffo got some of oh's olive skin (plus my white british skin) but i will DEFINATELY be putting suncream on him, factor 50 probably, babies skin is sooo delicate not to have any protection surley?!??

 

[LilyMac]

I still haven't got one, haven't been shopping yet and my card won't work online so it'll just have to wait for now
Oooh wish I was going somewhere nice like Italy, I'm off to clacton on sea LOL
I was just thinking the same thing too, I've got naturally tanned skin and I never get sun burn but I wouldn't go out without it, especially somewhere so hot so I wouldn't expect a baby to go without either especially when their skin is so delicate!!

If you use 50+ and reapply when you come out of the pool Aiden should be fine.

I've got AJ swimsuits from all over. Sainsbury's and next's one's were great.

 

[LilyMac]

Ah that's good to know, I figured he'd be ok if he had good sun screen on but just wanted to check thanks chick.
There's loads of places that do these suits and I couldn't find one anywhere, I was looking in all the wrong places

 

[charliebear]

The all in one suits are good because most of them have the built in sun protection too.

Keep looking, you'll find one you like. Asda has boys 2 piece ones in today.
