With so many types of bibs available it’s hard to know which is the best to choose. Some are designed specifically for a new baby like our smaller bib. And you can put this bib on as early as 1 week. This has snap fasteners on the side so you can remove the bib easily after feeding.

Other types of bibs can be used in the first week, including our dribble bibs. This bib is very absorbent and perfect to keep a drooling baby dry. So they will benefit from this style bib at the 3-month mark when they start teething.
The larger bib is designed for older babies. This is a bigger bib that covers more of the baby’s clothes. And great for when they are learning to feed. The neck on this bib is larger so we suggest using this bib at 3 months of age.
When do babies stop wearing bibs?
By 2 years old a baby has started to create less mess so you shouldn’t need bibs anymore. But every baby is different and if they like wearing them, or are a messy eater they don’t have to stop wearing them, as long as it still fits.
Our larger toddler bib is for older babies and covers more of the baby’s clothes. The neck on this bib is larger so we suggest using this bib at 3 months of age.
