As a cloth diapering mama, which do you prefer on your kiddo.

If you answer onsies, at what age did you stop putting your babe in them?

Thanks!

I am not a fan of onesies since switching to cloth. Mine were a little older when we started with cloth though so it may make a difference.

For me onsies just never worked with cloth. I cut all the tails off the ones I had.

i used a lot of onesies/bodysuits on millie when she was younger, but i wasn't using wool then at all. now that i am, i much prefer shirts. with ds, i actually used them on him quite a bit longer because they kept him from undoing his diapers. so -- with dd i stopped when she was around 6 months. with ds, he still occasionally wears them but only occasionally (not very potty-learning friendly)... so maybe through 2.25 years for him.

When we began using cloth dipes I found onsies just don't fit right and do not work for us. We do like longer looser shirts .

Yeah that! We didn't CD our older son Embarassed and most of his hand-me-down onesies or rompers just didn't work this time around.

Me, too, but if you are in the market to buy some, try Christy's Creations--she does a fab job of creating any image your heart desires, and she'll put it on a white or colored shirt Thumbs up (Had to give her that rave, she has worked so hard with me over the past couple of weeks to create some shirts for Gabriel to go with his longies for his winter wardrobe Mr. Green )

I like onsies when we're wearing jeans and stuff, but I prefer to buy shirts because then I know he can wear them with his wool.

I don't have any probelm with onesies. Although Glenn's are long because he's a big boy (weight). So I buy him 12-18 and they're a little long in the crotch.

Onesies just like tights get caught between the leg and the diaper and causing wicking...

Were anti onesies!! Thumbs up
