Default Bibs that really work?

On Jun 2, 12:07?am, "Anne Rogers" wrote:
we bought a two pack of rubbery bibs that had troughs at the bottom, you can
get the same made out of hard plastic, or towelling with a hard plastic
insert, but these are flexible rubber. They are not perfect, but they are
sufficient, they were bought before our now 4yr old started solids and are
still in use by his younger sister, now almost 2. We do have other
strategies though, we have for ages given breakfast whilst still in night
clothes, then was them fairly frequently (it was daily when they were babies
and has spread out, we have a reasonably high tolerance as to how dirty a
sleeper can be, plus we only have 2 sleepers in the current size, when we
had 10+ in the small sizes), lunch is something that only produces crumbs,
snacks also, then after dinner, it's not long until bed!

I betchya I have those Anne. lol. Somehow he still got food onto his
SHIRT underneath the models I've tried with the troughs. lol. @@ Funny
how standards change as time goes on and with number of children,
isn't it. lol. That IS the good thing about dinner time; just up and
out of the chair and into the tub. lol. Sometimes I need to feed him
his dinner in between a trip to the store and a trip to a soccer game
(games always occur at normal dinnertime so I have to feed him first
and he is in he do-it-myself stage). lol. He is getting less messy
though now at 19 months. Just certain things like rice dishes and
tomato dishes cause alarm. lol.
