Baby Clothes
May 16, 2008
When choosing and buying baby clothes, parents can be faced with many choices that, in the baby’s younger days, can seem quite confusing.
Striking a balance between practical and cute, fashionable and comfortable, need and impulse, and night and day can all play their part in moving decisions on what baby clothes to buy, and in what quantity.
All of these difficulties in choosing baby clothes are made worse by the fact that babies grow so quickly. You do not of necessity buy to fit now, but fit for the next few months if at all possible.
When buying the first baby clothes, and even with follow up shopping sprees as the baby grows, it can be helpful to remember a simple division rule, a rule of three. Your baby will basically need 3 types of clothes: daytime clothes, night wear (or sleepwear), and clothes for going out.
The baby sleepwear will likely outweigh the other categories, as sleeping is what baby spending most of their time doing in the early stages. But how do you decide what numbers to buy of each? Well, that may depend on how often you want to do laundry, but you will soon find a level that suits both your routine and the level of cleanliness and smartness you want for your baby.
The clothes you have for your baby to wear around the home should, most of all, be comfortable, easy to access for changing baby diapers, and simple. These are the clothing articles that your baby will spend most of her time in, so they are bound to get dirty. When the baby dribbles, brings up her milk, crawls around on the floor, or does any of the other messy baby pastimes, these clothes are going to bear the brunt of the soiling. Because of this, you will probably not want your baby to wear her best outfits, such as special gifts, around the home all the time.
The best clothes for day to day needs are almost certainly simple body suits. Onesies is a brand name, but the term has stuck as a description for this type of one piece baby wear. I seem to recall calling them grow bags with my first two children, but that was because I am a keen gardener! You will almost certainly need between five and ten of this one piece baby suits to keep on top of daily requirements.
