I used bibs with sleeves that velcro or button in the back. Make sure the neck is loose enough to not feel confining to baby. Interesting that many babies who were born with cords around their necks just can't stand a tight bib, shirt, or anything around the neck!

thanks for the help.. She didn't have a cord around her neck, she just doesn't like them. My son who did have the cord around his neck could care less what I put on him. My daughter is the stripper..lol.

Secure the bib in the back with a paper binder clip or a chip bag clip. It keeps the bib on without adding too much restraint that a parent can't get it off quickly. I tried this with my daughter who was always pulling the velcro bibs off. Worked like a charm! Also try a bib that you have to pull over their head - it takes more time to remove giving you a change to stop them.
