Onesies

Does anyone else get frustrated trying to put a baby into a onesie? I want to know what the heck designers are thinking. Here you have a baby that can't support it's own head or body or control the direction and movement of it's arms and legs at any time. She can't sit up on her own let alone hold her own body weight. Yet they are expected to hold still and cooperate while you try and figure out the jigsaw puzzle of snaps that are up and down the front and legs of the outfit.

Rylie kicks like crazy so trying to get her in the outfit is a challenge by itself. But then I have to try and match the snaps together and the snaps along the legs are again challenging by itself, let alone with a kicking baby that won't hold still and keeps kicking her legs back out of the outfit. She gives me about 10 seconds to get it right then will explode with frustration wanting to be picked up. More times than not I can button the snaps across the chest and a couple on the legs but that's all I can get to, leaving her diaper totally exposed. Or the snaps will just be awkwardly mismatched.

She's even had an outfit or two that have actual real buttons in the back. Again, babies can't sit up on their own yet. Am I supposed to lay her down on her face while I try to work the buttons with two hands?

My idea of a onesie is a t-shirt you can pull over her, done. No snaps, no buttons no trying to puzzle together which snap goes where or trying to balance her in one hand and work buttons together in the other. Maybe tape the t-shirt between her legs so she doesn't roll out of it. Or better yet, VELCRO! Space age technology can't be wrong.

Diapers finally got it right a long time ago - no more safety pins. Come on baby clothes designers, jump on board!
