Clothing tips while in cast

Now that we've experienced a strapless cast for a week I need to change my clothing tips. When there were straps in the way it was very hard to get a onesie on since the straps were up to her ears. I gave up on them all together. I figured it didn't matter since the cast seems pretty warm so why add another layer. Since the straps were cut off E's shirts would catch in slide the cast at the top and get all stuffed inside leaving her belly exposed. To solve this problem we are using tank top type onesies. This prevents her shirts from getting all up in the cast. I've found that her out of cast size fits for the onesie. We still need to size up on her shirts. So she takes an 18mo out of cast and an 18mo onesie with a 24mo shirt in cast.

Next time we need to remember to bring a smaller change of clothes to the cast removal. At her last removal we only had her in cast sized clothes and the poor kid looked like a deflated balloon once we dressed her to leave :)
