Secret Singlet Business
By: Amanda

I dreamed of little singlets, blindingly white, all lined up in a row with matching
wooden pegs on the line. These tiny garments, embraced by the sun and smelling
like the breeze, would keep my baby’s rounded body warm all day long.
Welcome to reality.
Babies move. And babies get picked up.
No matter how well I tucked that singlet into Lex’s bottoms, it would continue to
ride up, exposing his torso to the winter elements. Adjusting this and that all day
long soon became a frustrating exercise, for both the babe and I.
So how could I stop the singlet’s bothersome habit?
Singlet onesies, also known as bodysuits.
Singlet onesies are singlets which do up between the legs with press studs. They
range in size from 00000 to 2, and can either be gauzy and lightweight for
summer or heavier cotton for the cooler months.
Regular singlets can still be used effectively underneath all-in-ones. Although
they do ride up during the course of the day, no little back or belly will be
exposed. If you, like me, prefer to have everything tucked into place - and have
it stay there - you might do without the humble regular singlet.
So if you share my dream of tiny singlets swaying in the breeze, anticipating your
babe’s arrival, make sure they’re singlet onesies!
