So, fed up with the other socks, I remembered I had some of the Barefoot Dreams ones in her drawer. I put them on in the morning and wouldn’t you know 12 pm: still on…3 pm: still on…7 pm: STILL ON, PEOPLE! I didn’t see her little feet other than during tummy time and bath time for a while! Not only are these socks great at staying on all day but they aren’t too tight & they have none of that tight exposed elastic that digs into the skin. They are also THE SOFTEST socks ever, you guys! I even bought myself a pair (or three) in the adult size! She honestly didn’t start pulling them off herself until she was at least 7 months. I think it was because the socks didn’t have the tight elastic, so they didn’t bother her as much as normal baby socks. I’m not the only one who has loved these for their babes, we have gifted them to most of our expecting friends & they’re all obsessed.
Around 6 months, when Lily was at her chunkiest, I noticed they were starting to dig a little bit around her ankles at night. I just folded them down a bit and that solved the problem. Now at 16 months, she is still wearing them and they were the only types of socks we had for a long time. I think she’s probably got another couple of months wearing these & then it will be time to find another brand. No, Barefoot Dreams doesn’t have toddler socks (cue mom tears). I will let you know what I find on my hunt for ‘The Only Toddler Socks You’ll Ever Need.’
You can shop the socks below. You can also go to BarefootDreams.com. They come in sets of 3 in blue, pink or grey! Let me know if you’ve found any baby or toddler socks you love! P.S. I am not being paid or gifted by Barefoot Dreams, I genuinely love these socks this much!
