Sustainable and Affordable: Why Bodysuit Extenders Should Be on Every Parent's List

As parents, we know how quickly our babies grow and how fast they outgrow their clothes, especially those bodysuits. That's why we, an Australian business, started manufacturing baby bodysuit extenders in 2018 under our brand name Bellelis.

In 2022, we rebranded to B Eco Family to reflect our focus on sustainability and eco-friendliness. In this article, we'll explore the benefits of using bodysuit extenders and why they're a great idea for parents.

What are Bodysuit Extenders?

A Bodysuit extender is a small piece of fabric that you can attach to the bottom of your baby's bodysuit, creating extra length and room to accommodate your growing baby.

They are an innovative and affordable solution to the problem of having to constantly buy new bodysuits for your baby, especially during their rapid growth spurts.

By using a bodysuit extender, you can save money, reduce waste, and make your baby's clothes last longer, all while ensuring that your baby is comfortable and stylish.

The Problem with Traditional Bodysuits

Traditional bodysuits can be expensive, especially those made of high-quality materials. Additionally, they can quickly become too small for your baby, leading to frustration and the need to constantly buy new clothes.

This is where bodysuit extenders come in handy, as they can extend the life of your baby's bodysuits and save you money.

Benefits of Using Bodysuit Extenders

Using bodysuit extenders allows you to save money, reduce waste, and make your baby's clothes last longer. Moreover, they are perfect for babies who are in between sizes, making it easier to find suitable bodysuits that fit them comfortably.

How to Use Baby Bodysuit Extender

Using a bodysuit extender is simple and easy. All you need to do is snap the extender onto the bottom of your baby's bodysuit, and you're done!

We source our snaps from the same snap suppliers who provide snap buttons for all major baby clothes manufacturers like Boody Baby, Petit Bateau, Jamie Kay, Ollie's Place, K-mart, Big W, Target, Bonds, Snuggle Hunny and more.

Choosing the Right Bodysuit Extender

It's important to choose the right bodysuit extender that fits your baby's bodysuit.

At B Eco Family, we offer two different sizes of snap buttons (9mm and 10mm) to ensure they fit all major Australian brands.

Baby Bodysuit Extender and Modern Cloth Nappies

Bodysuit extenders are also great for parents who use modern cloth nappies. Cloth nappies tend to be bulkier than disposable nappies, which can make it challenging to find suitable bodysuits for your baby.

With a bodysuit extender, you can easily extend the length of your baby's bodysuit, creating more room for the nappy.

Plus, by using cloth nappies and bodysuit extenders, you're contributing to a more sustainable and eco-friendly future for your baby.

Bodysuit Extenders and the Pavlik Harness for Hip Dysplasia

If your baby has hip dysplasia and needs to wear a Pavlik harness, you may find it challenging to dress them in suitable clothing.

The harness makes it difficult to find bodysuits that fit properly, which can lead to discomfort and skin irritation. However, with a bodysuit extender, you can easily extend the length of your baby's bodysuit, creating more room for the harness.

Conclusion

Bodysuit extenders are a great idea for parents looking to save money, reduce waste, and make their baby's clothes last longer. Our extenders are made of safe and comfortable materials, and they are suitable for all Australian brands.

By using a baby bodysuit extender, you can ensure that your baby's clothes fit comfortably, no matter how much they grow. Try them out today and see for yourself why they're such a great idea!
