Clothing Baby
Choice of baby clothing is
unlimited. But your budget is limited, so you
will have to look for things that fit your purse
and you like. But there are some things that you
must keep in mind while shopping for babies'
clothes. Babies do not like their clothes being
changed often. Choose clothes that are easy to
change and simple to put on and remove. Clothes
that stretch and have a wide neck are best.
Clothes that open in front and have poppers are
easier. Buttons can come off and the baby can
swallow them. When ties come off you will have
to sow them on again so avoid clothes with them.
Nappies should open around the crotch. Avoid
lace as the babies can get their fingers caught
in lace. Use natural fiber, cotton is the best,
it is soft on their skin and comfortable. The
clothes should not have rough stitching. Clothes
that do not need ironing are best. Babies grow
out of their clothes quickly, so you may not
want to buy too many. But you must have enough
clothes so that you do not end up having to wash
them frequently. For a newborn you may need:
 |
Six to eight stretch suits (3to 4 first size and 3
to 4 second size). Always buy according to weight not age.
|
 |
Two nightgowns those are more comfortable and easy
to put on and take off than stretch suits and hence make changing
nappies easier at night. |
 |
Four sleeveless vest with poppers under the crotch
to prevent them from riding up. |
 |
Three pairs of socks. |
 |
Three cardigans. |
 |
For summer a sunhat and a light jacket.
|
 |
For winters warm hat, mittens and snow suit.
|
This is a basic wardrobe for your newborn.
