Yup!

Let me dig up a pic of my little guy in them, if you think that'll help. He does NOT look like a girl. But, I bought very neutral colors and patterns, since I bought most of them before I was even pg.

yup, I put babylegs on ds - we have 2 pairs - one is the organic ones - plain natural color. the other pair is light blue and dark blue stripes - they really just look like pants when they're on and if people ask I tell them his knees are torn up from crawling (which is true) and they nod and commiserate

My dh feels the same way but I still used them. Not often though 'cause we were in such warm weather when he was really little & I always found they dug into his super chunky thighs.

They're super cute & practical though!

I think many of the patterns are not girlie at all. Plus you can make your own from socks (there's a tutorial hanging around here somewhere) so you could have as "manly" pattern as you'd like.

I do! But I mostly use them under pants in the winter when we go out.

Cristeen - such a cute baby! how old is he in those pictures?

Babylegs (or any sort of legwarmers) are really great for holding on socks. With the baby wearing pants, I can put wool leg warmers (homemade) over the socks, and not bother with "shoes" for our infant.

The one when he's in my lap, he's probably 3 or 4 weeks old. The one where he's propped up in the Boppy he's about 3 mos.

My DS HATES my son wearing baby legs. But I love them! I just don't put them on him when he is at home (just weekends and evenings)
They make diaper changing so easy and great for crawling around. I also put them under pants when we go outside in the cold, an extra layer.

I love baby legs and put them on ds all the time. I make mine a lot of the time and I'll get dh's opinion if its a print. They keep his legs warm when the pants ride up and when changing diapers as other pointed out.
