What is the best type of baby clothes to bring to the hospital?
When you're packing your hospital bag for birth, it's important to consider not just your comfy clothing, but also that first outfit for your newborn. Depending on how long your hospital stay will be, it is best to pack a few items of baby clothing to make sure you have everything your new bub needs. As a suggestion, hospitals typically recommend that you pack 2-3 onesies, baby singlets for layering, a going home baby outfit,
baby hats,
socks, swaddles and muslin wraps. Plus, don't forget the ,
baby car seat for their first journey home!
How do I know what baby clothing size to buy?
Baby clothing sizes are typically measured based on age. However, every baby grows differently so you might find that some sizing feels a little off for your bub. Based on generic baby sizes, the following sizes correspond with the baby's age: size 0000 (Newborn, up to 3.5kg), size 000 (0-3 months), size 00 (3-6 months), size 0 (6-12 months). If you're still unsure, the best advice for choosing the right size in baby clothing is to always size up. This is because babies can grow quickly and larger sizes are always easier to put on.
Are baby onesies easy to maintain with a newborn?
Yes, baby onesies are some of the easiest clothing options for newborns to wear. Easy to layer, quick to change and most importantly, comfortable for bub, onesies can be easily taken on and off to wash after every spill and stain in those first few newborn weeks and months.
How do I wash my baby's clothing?
Baby clothing can typically be washed just like any other type of adult clothing, but with a few sensitivities. We recommend following the washing instructions on your bub's garments. But for a rule of thumb, consider using a gentle detergent, separate heavily soiled items, avoid fabric softeners, pre-treat any stains with baby-safe stain remover and air dry when possible.
How often should I shop for new baby clothes?
One thing we all know about babies is how quickly they grow, especially in the first six months. This means that you may need to shop for a wide variety of baby clothing sizes early on in the process so you can be prepared for their growth spurts. Typically shopping for baby clothing every 4-8 weeks in the newborn stage is common and then shopping every 2-3 months after that. While these are general guidelines, your own experience my differ based on your bub's growth and development.
