As the colder winter seasons approach it is best to consider all sets of under garments even for babies. Season neutral clothing should be stocked up on including sleepers and onesies. As far as size is concerned, many new babies will fall directly into a size range corresponding with their age but it might be advantageous to give a gift in a size slightly bigger than what the baby needs now, because giving baby clothes is a popular gift idea and babies will grow very fast; the parents may be incredibly grateful to have someone one size too big into which the baby can grow over the coming months.
When you are buying new baby clothes, especially as gifts, you should familiarize yourself with a baby glossary. There are many baby terms relating to clothing that we don’t use regularly and they can throw off a potential shopper. The first item is a baby body suit. This is a perfect piece of clothing for layering as it covers the whole baby and seasonal items can be placed on top of it. A bag sleeper is a type of baby sleepwear that is roomy and makes it easier to change diapers in the middle of the night. A blanket sleeper is for babies and toddlers. A layette is similar to the body suit; it is essential for newborn babies. When you are caring for a newborn with the umbilical cord still in tact, a kimono baby shirt is best.
You might also considering buying newborn baby mittens. New babies have very thin little finger nails that can still scratch their skin. But with mittens that problem is alleviated. You can look for materials such as organic cotton or pima cotton.
