One's onesie

I was given a onesie for Christmas but it didn't come with any instructions. I do know that one can wear one's onesie to Tesco's as long as one wears flip flops and has a fag in mouth, but I need to know onesie etiquette, like:
What does one wear underneath?
Does one wear it to bed?
How does one go to the loo without sitting there half-naked and chilly?
Is it supposed to be comfy? Because it isn't.

One's not sure one's ready for the babygro look. Should one persevere?

I have just bought myself a onesie in the sale at Sainsbury. It has a hood and is a pinky/grey animal print. OK so it looks like a babygro but it is only for wearing in the privacy of my own home ( with the curtains drawn ) I just love it.

I'm very long-bodied....don't think a onesie would be very comfy at all blush!

I'm tempted to get one but fear I might never wear anything else. My (very slim) friend has one and swears by it but she would look good in a sack. I tend to look like I'm already wearing a sack. Perhaps a onesie would be an improvement! I suppose they are really just like a one-piece shell suit.

I've got two onesies..... is that boasting? The recent one is a warm fleecy material and I wear it in the evenings and overnight.... but yes, someone should invent a flap underneath to make toileting more bearable in cold weather!

A onesie, perish the thought. Oh no! I couldn't. tchgrin

I bet you could tchgrin. Mine is quite long in the body (bit too baggy if truth be told) but the softest warmest thing you can imagine. Bought by my DGC with love so mine will be worn and not given or thrown away and I shall be happy and cosy wearing it .

Maybe they need to have poppers on the legs, like a babygro does?
