Undergarments

[ellabella]

Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can get nude briefs for my DD? She wears a 2t in underwear and those are a bit baggy in the rear, but that's fine for normal underwear. I haven't had luck in finding some really small nude briefs to go under her leotards. Tried CS in Gk, but they were huge.

Thanks!

Most girls go commando, that is naked , under their suits until they are older. (teens) That way we don't have to buy special under wear.

Our dd is 4.5 and she goes without. They really don't have anything that is small enough for her, I even asked her coach about it and she has not seen anything that small. Good Luck!

Yes, most girls wear a leo like a bathing suit---no undies until they go through puberty.

All ours wear nothing under their leo's, nothing looks worse than a teen or young adult competing and a pair of undies handing out from their leo (although it does look quite cute on the tiny tots). I am 27 and wear nothing under mine.

No undies here except my oldest has always worn briefs under competition leo b/c her coach at the time of her very first meet said she had to. We ordered them from Elite but she was almost 8 and wearing size CL. Even though none of her teammates wear them, she considers them part of her uniform, lol. She doesn't wear any for practice though.

My dd doesn't wear anything under her leos either. When she gets older we will probably do the gk briefs.

I was told a couple years ago by "seasoned" moms to get DD used to going "without" underware as most the gymnasts don't wear anything under them until they are much older. This avoids picking, pulling at and re-arranging bunchie undies & wedgies, LOL. My Dd now thinks of her leo like a bathing suit. Plus, as they get older and work on bars they hate anything extra that might bunch up/bulk/rub at the hips. My DD will only wear the tight mini shorts to help cushion her hips over her leo now. Hasn't worn undies since about age 4. I only kow of the GK brand that has them. Maybe try Danskin since little dancers might wear them?

The girls at our gym pretty much comando as well. There are a few hitting that teen age. Honestly, I don't know if they wear the briefs or not - But suddenly a bra under the leo is totally cool. My 7 yr old thinks she needs one too

Not to get off subject but YES gymmomntc2e6 this week now that it's been hot the gym is now hosting a new fashion show. They have on just sport bras with their leos folded over to the waist. I have sport bras from last years "sport-bra-a-thon" in the heat but I admit I do NOT like this look for 7 yr old DD & won't allow it. Some of the sport bras didn't even LOOK like sport bras, they looked like regular bras! If I were a guy coach I might be a little uncomfortable with this new Summer look.
