Can someone just spell out to me what makes a grobag a travel grobag?! I have a grobag that I inherited that has a velcro slit at the bag, but that looks like it's for nappy checking so I assume there's another with various holes in for seatbelts?!


Does anyone know of other makes than the grobag ones? For some reason I really struggle getting my big baby in and out of the grobag, with its central zip, whereas my Jojo ones with zip down the side, and poppers at the shoulder, are much easier.


Also he is only 12 weeks but almost touching the end of his 0-6months Jojo one when he stretches out - I assume there's no issue with getting a 6-18month one, as long as I am sure he can't slip down into it?


Thanks

As ClareC says, any travel sleeping bag will have a zip centre front and centre back so you can bring the buckle which goes between babies legs through to insert the shoulder straps into. I was lent one which I'm pretty sure wasn't an actual Grobag....have you tried Google - a search on 'travel sleeping bags' might bring something up. Edited to add I found these:

Looks good as you can actually turn it into 2 separate legs, so no fiddling trying to get baby out of car/bucket through sleeping bag, which I sometimes found tricky.

Size wise, no issue with going up a size, as long as they are not too huge on him. You may find that length wise he doesn't get a lot longer over the next few months as at his stage babies often go 'out' (i.e. getting chubbier) rather than up, so see how it goes. I have a couple of sleeping bags that fold up at the back and then popper fasten to themselves to make them shorter, then you open them up to the full lenth as baby grows - they've been very good. They have central zips but I don't find it tricky to get baby into them, so maybe yours are just on the small size in general?


Hope you manage to get sorted.

    • It happened again tonight. This time a group of kids ( I hate saying that, because it makes them sound less intimidating than they are), threatened to throw a water bomb at me. When I dared them, they started lobbing them. Then they started saying they were going to kill my dog and one of them jumped over the fence of the Japanese Garden and took a running kick at my dog, who got out of the way. He jumped back over the fence, then came back, came within a meter of me and threw a water bomb really hard at me.  I can't be sure it was exactly the same crowd as last time, though I suspect the male ring leader could be.  The police came and were amazing - as was the park warden - and are fairly confident of the identity of one of them and think they may have tried to arrest him before.  There were maybe as many as 15 of them, aged 16-18, all Caucasian, girls and boys (girls being just as aggressive as the boys). The ring leader is a slight man, dark hair / eyes, possibly with facial hair about 5'6", petite, wearing an all-blue tracksuit.  So please be careful when you're in the park around 6.30 / 7pm. The local SNT have been informed.
