Re: getting baby dressed and feeding him with helmet

January 27, 2009

I share the motto, if it doesn't fit over the helmet, he doesn't

wear it!

It is true that most shirts can fit over, and I have also picked out

specific types of shirts to ensure they do. There are shirts with

snaps on one shoulder which are so great!

I also only remove his helmet one time per day. If that works for

you, it is so much easier to do it just for the bath:)

I haven't had the issue with my son spreading food everywhere (yet),

but that got me thinking. Weird suggestion, but could a person put

a shower cap over the helmet at meal time for easy clean up? Just a

wacky thought, not sure if the size would work....
