Where is everyone buying sleepsuits that work with boots and bar?? Normal ones dont fit over the boots and I've been cutting the feet off all his babygrows 😂

Ive seen companies make brace-specific ones but they seem pricey. UK recommendations? 🇬🇧

Zippy Little Bird! Specifically designed for boots and bar. About £18 each but last well and the zip goes all the way down so you don't need to remove the brace.

M&S do really wide leg sleepsuits that work ok if you cut the feet off. Not as neat but much cheaper.

We just cut the feet off Primark sleepsuits 😂 £2 each so who cares if they look rough? Baby doesnt care about fashion!

Save fancy ones for photos, use cheapies for everyday 👍

STEPS charity has a list of suppliers on their website under "resources"! They sometimes have discount codes for brace-wear brands.

Also check Facebook marketplace / eBay for second hand brace sleepsuits. Babies outgrow them so fast they're usually in great condition

TK Maxx sometimes has wide leg baby grows that work! Hit and miss though.

Also leg warmers from H&M - great for warmth without trousers over the bar. £4 for a multipack.
