Obtaining Clothes For Premature Babies

By Maryellen Lamb


Newborn babies need great care and attention. They need food, hospitality, rest and clothes that can make them very comfortable. Hence, getting clothes for premature babies is an essential thing one must do before and after the baby is born. If you do this early, you will have more time to take care of the other basic needs like feeding and bathing. Do not plan on a low budget because your new kid will be messy and thus require frequent changing.

It is true that predicting their size is very challenging. However, this should not be a hindrance because even if you buy wears that are a bit over-sized, the baby will quickly grow to its size. Alternatively, you can discuss with the seller and let him or her know that you will return anyone that does not match your baby. If the scan is saying the baby is normal, get some 0-3 month wears or skip this size if the child is a big.

You should be sure of the period that you will put to bed. Children born in the winter have different needs from those born in the summer. Fleece wears, snow suits, hats, socks and booties are some of the essentials for the winter period. Make sure the clothes are also not undersized so that they can be properly covered.

Do not buy tight wears. Babies sleep frequently and when they do, they need all the comfort and air flowing through their tender bodies. The wears should also be free of buttons, ribbons, zips and decorative items that they may be tempted to bite or chew.

Get several diapers especially if you are going for the disposable ones. Everyday, your child needs to change about 10-12 times until when he or she becomes older. If you fail to buy several diapers, you may not be able to wash frequently and this could tempt you to wear a dirty diaper on your baby. Dirty diapers should be avoided because they can be very infectious. Remember that your baby's immune system is not strong at the tender age.

Leggings and blankets are also important. Five to seven leggings will do while three wearable blankets should be okay. The wearable blankets have more advantages than the traditional blankets and they prevent the risk of letting the child to suffocate. The leggings should be washed at all times because your child can mess two or three up within a few hours. Choose leggings that can be separated so that you can change only the dirty ones.

If the clothing is too expensive, select those that are one month above the baby's age. For example, if you are purchasing for a 2-month old child, get the ones that are for 3-month old children, especially if your child grows fast. However, bear in mind that the season can change within a month and the cloth may not be useful again.

Clothes for premature babies can be obtained cheap when you buy from the right places. Another factor that can guarantee cheap sales is when you buy in bulk. Your child is important so you should do anything you can to make sure he or she stays healthy.
