Putting cute clothes on newborn babies is one of the most fun things about being a parent. In between the sleepless nights, constant feeding, hundreds of diaper changes, and lots of crying, you get to play with your little bundle of joy and dress them in cute clothes. Whether you’re making a baby registry, looking at a pile of shower gifts, or looking into the wide eyes of your days-old newborn you may have that nagging feeling that you’re missing some infant wear essentials. And you might be. There’s so much cute stuff out there that it’s easy to miss the not-so-obvious but very important things.
When shopping for a baby’s first outfit, the material is one of the most important things to look for. Babies’ skin is soft and sensitive, so the fabric should also be soft. Your baby might be bothered by anything scratchy or rough. Many parents like to dress their babies in clothes made of natural fibers like cotton. Babies are still learning how to control their body temperature, so they often need to wear hats, socks or booties, and mittens to stay warm. If you like outfits that match, look for one that comes with these kinds of extras to keep your baby warm and cozy.
Becoming a parent for the first time can be both exciting and scary. As your due date gets closer, you might be wondering if you’ve bought the right baby clothes, if your diaper bag is big enough, and how many blankets your new baby might need. Don’t worry, every parent-to-be gets nervous in the months before their baby is born. As long as the room is ready and you have all the baby clothes you’ll need for the first few weeks, you’ll be ready to start your parenting journey on the right foot. There are a lot of different kinds of baby clothes you need, from a “coming home” outfit to everyday basics. What’s good? We’ve made a list of the newborn clothes that every new parent should have, along with a few cute options from some of the best baby clothing brands. Also, there are some helpful tips on how to dress a baby.
Putting together a wardrobe for a newborn can be hard, but it’s also a lot of fun. Socks, hats, pajamas, bodysuits, and other small things are hard to keep track of. Here’s a handy list of everything you’ll need for the first six weeks and beyond to help you figure out what to choose. Depending on how big your baby is and how fast he or she grows, this wardrobe may be all you need from birth until your baby is 6 weeks old.

We’ll leave you on your journey of choosing baby clothes with this advice: remember that babies often throw up or soil themselves, so you’ll probably be doing several loads of laundry a week. So, look for newborn clothes that are easy to care for and can be washed and dried in a machine.
