When DD was little I had one of these floatation swimsuits for her and it was absolutely brilliant. We used to go boating and she was/is a real water baby.

DS is also a real water baby, and is a very busy boy. We are due to have this next baby over summer and we will likely to be spending alot of time around my M&Ds pool. As i will have a newborn to look after, i thought it would be great to get another one of these swimsuits for DS. Not, so I can just let him loose in the pool, but just so I don't have to hover over him as I have to now because he will just jump into the pool..

I have seen some on trade me, but apart from being ugly, they dont protect the shoulders from the sun.

Anyone seen one in a local boutique baby store or the likes?

TIA

You mean something more like this? Maybe you could contact the other outfit and see if they can import sleeved ones? I mean, she imports the other types..they look like they're all made in the US..

JD it's not exactly what you're looking for, but can you get those floatie devices that are like a backpack in NZ? You can put them on over a proper swimsuit so then you can use a regular swimsuit (with better sun protection) but your DS can wear the flotation device as well.

Something like this

Pepsi...thats just what I mean    Good idea, Ill ask the NZ store if they can import some that cover the shoulders.

Kiwisj...I did think about something like that. Have you used them before? They look like they would flip the kid on their face in the water!!

Its tricky, cos most of these things you cant try before you buy!

Thanks for you help
