The option is limitless, this is where the risk lies in buying a lot of clothes for baby.

Too many baby girl dresses means your baby will only use them a few times (or sometimes not at all), babies grow quite fast and the next size up in that special ensemble is needed before you know it! Leaving you with the cutest outfits ever, but no GREAT VALUE FOR MONEY.

The ideal way to purchase baby clothing is to ensure you have enough outfits to get you through the week in a couple of diverse sizes, but not too many that you have overflowing drawers of baby outfits which haven’t even been unwrapped before your infant gets too huge to wear them; or duplicate clothing that you didn’t really need.

Well, to be honest, duplicate baby clothing is not that large of any issue really, particularly in the beginning when baby clothes can only be worn once and generally for several hours and all clothing must be consistently cleaned and cleaned! In the early days ensure you have numerous infant gowns, bodysuits, comfortable playgro suits, and sleeping suits, basic tees, comfortable cotton trousers, warm cardigans and coats or sunhats, depending on the season.

Before you purchase new baby clothes check what time of the year your baby will be born, it may be around sale time, that is the best time to buy bulk lots of newborn baby clothing that you are going to need.

Once all of the confusion has settled you’ll experience an exciting time buying your first new-born baby wear, it’s far more fun than buying clothing for yourself (really) - and in time you are going to be having more fun when your child grows from that first lot of clothing, you will find yourself a more seasoned shopper within the baby clothing section.
