mama2cntrykids Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 In fact, besides the jeans, there are a couple of outfits that she's like a stuffed sausage in too! Poor chubby baby:tongue_smilie:. She has her mother's thighs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starr Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Put those darling legs of hers in leggings. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingersmom Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I feel her pain.:001_smile: I always say my son was born a husky. He is 13 and still a husky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peachskittles Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I bought my 18month old daughter a few pairs of jeans for fall/winter, in addition to leggings. She looks indecent in leggings (her father and my sister completely agree)...jeans aren't much better and she can't keep them buttoned. If I go up a size, she can't walk since she is so short. I'm on a mission to find her some cute dresses that are long enough to cover her lower half (it seems her dresses rise a bit in the back because her bottom half is a bit bigger than it should be) and she can wear with leggings underneath. She is actually not chubby, completely average sized...Look at her top half and she looks like a normal 18month old...Look at her lower half in comparsion to her top half and it's like "That's where all her weight is"...:tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeritasMama Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Put those darling legs of hers in leggings. :D :iagree: This is what I had to do with my now 2 yo, she finally fits into jeans the last few months. My 1 yo dd is the exact opposite, she is too skinny. I will always prefer rolls on babies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VeganCupcake Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 We cloth diaper, so I know the feeling! I have skinny kids with giant cloth diaper bums, and I almost always put them in stretchy pants to accommodate the diaper. When when DD potty trained, suddenly her pants were all too big. Even the buttonhole elastic waist jeans don't really stay up. From one extreme to the other . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexi Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 In fact, besides the jeans, there are a couple of outfits that she's like a stuffed sausage in too! Poor chubby baby:tongue_smilie:. She has her mother's thighs! Quit trying! :lol: My 19 month old is pretty chubby herself and right now she lives in little dresses (it's still hot here). But I bought her a bunch of little leggings to go under them when it cools off. Real pants do NOT fit. My older kids affectionately call her "chubby tummy." Poor thing! I really am hoping she thins out some as she grows. My other girls were not this chubby at her age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucy in Australia Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Yep, leggings and dresses here too, even now that she's nearly 3. Her rear end is... round :lol: and needs to be covered with a dress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommyof4ks Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I had a son like that. He wore stretchy clothes until he was 5, and all of a sudden he thinned out a lot. He will never be skinny like his sibs, but he is no longer wearing husky clothes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently skipped completely over size 2's and just started dressing her in DD 3's clothes. It's working out fine. DD3 even made up a song about it, "You're a chubby baby and you're wearing my clothes." It's kind of catchy. We sing it a lot. :001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lailasmum Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 You could try finding the clothing brands made for cloth diapered babies. They are bigger cut in that area. I only know the brand here in the UK which is Frugi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CourtneyBrooke Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 My baby has been chubby since she was born. She's almost 3 now, and has never worn a pair of jeans- they're just too painful for her big belly. I tried some on last week and while the length was too long (size 4s), none of them could button. I just keep her in pretty dresses with leggings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catz Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 I think jeans for babies and toddlers are kind of ridiculous anyway. Not very practical! Neither of my kids could really wear them at that age. My son is super lean now. My daughter carries a little more weight than her super skinny brother, but is wearing size 8 at age 8, dances, looks cute in leotards, etc. She was such a roly poly baby she couldn't wear mary jane style shoes until she was like 3.

Cinder Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Yep, leggings and dresses here too This is what my dd wore when she was younger even though she was slim enough for jeans. She just didn't like jeans; they weren't as comfy as leggings. Now that she's 7 she likes jeans and hates dresses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
