Put some shoes on your baby's feet! Post Reply

There are 'sock-ons' ... Basically, they go over the socks to keep them on!!!

I use these and also tights under trousers, that way they cant get pulled off and the child has extra warmth under there trousers !

I too agree with most of the posters on here. My child was happy in thick socks for the most part. His feet never got cold and he was always wrapped up. Whos to say that the child didnt have tights on underneath there socks or more than one pair of socks. its pointless putting shoes on a young baby as they just come off within five minutes because of kicking feet etc. My son didn't have his first pair of shoes until he could walk, never did him any harm

I read this thread with amusement. I cannot believe someone actually took the time to post about parents' decision on how to dress their children appropriately. We should support each other rather than judge. Maybe the parent who only has socks on the baby was only out for a quick trip and knows what her own baby needs! Sheesh. If the baby is cold and uncomfortable s/he will fuss and cry. And really- slightly cold feet is hardly tantamount to child abuse!
