    Hi all

    My little guy is a serious drooler. I am double bibbing at the moment and he is still soaking. Just using cotton bibs.
    Is there a bib out there to keep him dry?

    Thanks :)

    I found the ones from Name It best out of the ones I had. They were fleece lined so soaked up the drool well. Any others soaked through.

    The rain and conker ones are lovely. Fleece backing. I have a heap I could sell on to you if you like.

    The baby boo ones are great. Fleece backing too- they’re dear enough, but I think they do bundles. I’ve a feeling 10 of them cost €32. Some shops are now stocking them, but I’ve always bought online. Their prints are lovely. My little dude is a real drooler too, and his clothes never get wet
    I got some as a gift which are the very same. Zippy is the brand, and I’ve seen them in some pharmacies, you might come across them.

    There's a brand called Funky Giraffe and I found them a lifesaver for my little boy who drooled an unbelievable amount. They're fleece backed so they kept the clothes dry for a lot longer than regular bibs, they're also bandana shaped and come in loads of different designs, so they didn't ruin the look of his cute little outfits :pac:

    Rain&conker by a mile

    Dunnes and next do bibs that are labelled "dribble proof" - they're double layered, sometimes triple layered and are much more effective than the standard cotton ones. Not sure how the price/quality compares with others already mentioned, but they might be easier to source

    Next ones are great, they've a built in middle later that soaks up the moisture and stops it getting through. But both sides are covered with cotton so it's not like some bibs where the back is plastic (which I'm guessing could be uncomfortable).

    Have got loads of em and don't compare in quality to rain&conker at all.

    I just used the regular size up until he was about 1 and then went for the large. I've ordered a few for the current bun in the oven and just went with Regular. There's 2 sets of snaps on the back, so you can adjust the size pretty easily.

    I double-bibbed... plastic backed underneath, and the fleece backed on top.
