This is something that really bothers me for some stupid reason. Why is it nearly impossible to find newborn and infant pajamas with zippers. What is the deal? Zippers are way easier, faster, and look better. So why would they do this to us. I was at Kohl’s today, and the Carters rep, just happened to be there. The conversion went like this…
Carter’s Lady: Can I help you find something?
Me: Yeah, I need to find some newborn or 0-3mth pajamas with zippers
Carter’s Lady: We have some really nice ones with buttons
Me: I don’t want buttons, I hate buttons, I want zippers
Carter’s Lady: Well, we don’t have any of those, in-fact we have phased zippers out of infant ware, and are not even making them anymore
Me: That’s the stupidest thing I have ever herd, are you kidding me? Why would you do that?
Carter’s Lady: Well, we have had some negative feedback about them. Some people are zipping up their kids skin
Me: Those people are stupid. With a zipper you just zip once… with buttons you have at least a dozen chances to pinch their skin in the button snaps
Carter’s Lady: And people also….
Me: People are stupid, zippers are faster, eaiser, and look better.
Carter’s Lady: I will let someone know
Me: You do that.
So… I’m an asshole. But is it too much to ask to have at least the option of having a zipper. I spent all day looking for these endangered species of sleepwear, and only found two, really ugly ones. So I stocked up and bought a few of each in different sizes.
I’m now deciding to put together a store that has nothing but pajamas with zippers.
When she says that its time to go… you need to be ready. Have the bags packed in advance if possible
Here is a list of things that you should bring. Now, this is the list of stuff for you to bring… most women will have a suitcase full of stuff that they want to have, just make sure that your lady packs her bag well in advance.
This is a list of the stuff that I packed in my hospital bag
Also remember to make sure that your lady has all her stuff packed and ready, and be sure to have some stuff for the new baby as well. Like their fist little outfits, pacifiers, receiving blankets etc.
