anyone tried old navy fleece pants for a cover?

[e_roehm23]

I think i read somewhere that old navy fleece works good for covers? Anybody tried this?

I have a pair of ON fleece pants that I used as a cover for DD1 and then later for DD2, they worked just fine for me.

They work for us too.
One thing to consider- with fleece pants with elastic waists, the cd underneath needs to be absorbent enough or the elastic band gets damp. I'd guess most fitteds would work fine, but we use thin fitteds, and occasionally get damp waist elastic.

I wouldn't at night. Sometimes I keep DD2 in a diaper and fleece pants at night so I can feel if she's wet but she doesn't soak the bed, and I totally can feel when she's wet.

Any fleece pants I can get my hands on I use. So far I haven't had any problem with any of them.

Yes, I used them when DD1 was a toddler. I have trouble getting pants on a little baby.

Oh, much thanks mamas! I saw some really cute thick ones at a second hand shop last winter and now I could kick myself that I didn't get them! hahaha I'll definitely be on the look out!!!

oh, just make sure they are 100% polyester. Some of ON's "fleece" pants are actually 20% fleece/80% cotton.

Any polyester fleece works.

if you can sew, and you don't need to sew well, you can make fleece pants easily.
I get fleece (anti-pill) from joanns and I bet alot is on sale now.
and get elastic (like 3/4" or something) for the waist.
Depending on size you could make 4 pairs from 1 yard.
I make matching for my 3 and 1 year old (my 3 year old is PLd but still they are warm)
