I was going to just update my status everyday with different questions about brands and prices but I figured that I'll just write a blog about each different category on my "Essentials List". I'm trying to have my list all together so when we register it won't take forever and I will register for what I actually need and will use! Please tell me what brand and why you love it! Thanks MOMS!!
Day 2:
Baby Wear Must Haves...
-receiving blankets?
-caps?
-booties vs socks?
-clothes for the baby during the day?
-clothes for the baby to sleep in?
-hangers? Do you actually hang up anything?
*is there anything wardrobe wise that you feel a baby MUST HAVE?*
oh ok. blankets like thermal blankets that are a tad larger than receiving blankets are a favorite here. they make awesome swaddle blankets b/c they are kinda stretchy. they do make swaddle blankets with velcro (we used this with iris) that makes the swaddle stay put. :)
ReplyDeletewe never did the cotton cap thing. we did booties & socks with my winter baby. with my winter baby the clothing during the day was the whole footie button-up clothes (not to be mistaken with the pj's). i would also layer a onesie and socks under that outfit.
for a summer baby we just did the onesie and socks.
now for the pj's i STRONGLY recommend the zipper pj's b/c it makes the middle of the night diaper changes oh so easy. we also loved the sleep sacks for when they outgrew the swaddling. we did use hangers for all the cute little outfits. i only used a small dresser for them to store the onesies & socks & blankets. it worked for us better that way.
hope this helps, my friend. ;)
