  2. Children's skin is very sensitive, therefore it is necessary to give preference to natural high-quality fabrics;
  3. It should be abandoned and variegated bright colors. Dyes can cause allergies or irritation in the crumbs;

What size clothes to buy for a newborn?

The choice of clothing size is a very important moment. Many factors play a role here. Often advised to acquire the 50th, 56th or 62nd size. But, for example, for a large baby, clothing of the 50th size will be already small, and a premature baby can simply “drown” in a 62-size baby's vest.

How to understand what size clothes to choose? More or less help determine the desired size of the result of ultrasound. Specialist-uzist tell you whether the child is born standard weight or larger.

For a kid with an average standard weight, things of the 56th size will do. If Mommy expects a real hero - it is better to take a size larger.

If parents are waiting for twins or triplets, they need to prepare things of the 50th size, because the weight of such babies is usually one and a half to two times less than the standard one.

If the family is expecting a boy, and his dad is tall enough, the baby can be born tall, then you should give preference to clothes of the 62nd size.

The size of the headdress of a newborn is easier to pick up. Usually in the first month of life, all the kids are fit with hats and hats of the 36th size.

Of course, it is necessary to clarify with the purchase whether the things of the chosen brand are small. And be prepared for the fact that the baby will very quickly grow out of things from discharge. Therefore, it is worthwhile to take care in advance of the larger set of sizes.

Differences clothing sets for girls and boys

In the past, sets of things on discharge from newborns differed only in the color of the bow tied over the blanket. But time flies, fashion and traditions are changing rapidly. And the differences between clothes are no longer limited to just the color gamut.

When choosing the color of clothes for an extract, you should not limit yourself to the usual rule “the boy is blue, the girl is pink”. For little princesses fit kits of emerald green, yellow, purple. Boys can be dressed in beige, gray, blue shades.

White color remains universal and will suit both boys and girls.

What clothes to choose for a newborn to be discharged from the maternity hospital in spring and summer?

The weather in spring is very unpredictable, because the set for the spring discharge must be well thought out.

For example, if discharge occurs in early spring, in March, it is better to collect a warm set of clothes similar to winter clothes.

In the warmer springtime, you can prepare this set:

  • the warmed envelope intended for an off-season (it is possible to replace it with a warm blanket or the warmed overalls);
  • cotton overalls;
  • warm socks;
  • cap and cap under it;
  • anti-scratch gloves.

If the spring is very warm, the envelope (or overalls) may be without insulation. If the opposite - cold, - you can add to the bottom overalls vest.

In the summer, you should not thoroughly wrap up the child, because of the unstable thermoregulation, it can easily overheat, the child will need only the most necessary minimum for a summer discharge:

  • thin bodykit;
  • little cap;
  • beautiful lightweight blanket.

If the summer is cool, you can replace the blanket with a blanket or a demi-season envelope, or wear a fleece overalls over a lightweight bodysuit.

What clothes to prepare the baby on discharge from the hospital in the fall?

If the baby decided to be born in the fall, make sure that you are ready for discharge:

  • light bodykit;
  • warm overalls;
  • socks;
  • warm hat;
  • cap under the cap;
  • anti-scratch gloves.

Instead of a warm overalls, you can wrap the child in a beautiful children's blanket.

But for the November cold weather it is better to choose a warm winter envelope.

Clothing for winter discharge from the hospital

A winter set of clothes for discharge must be carefully thought out. So that the baby on the way home does not catch a cold, because the children's organism is so fragile. For winter discharge will need:

  • light overalls;
  • warm fleece or wool overalls;
  • socks;
  • warm hat and cap under it (the cap should close the ears well);
  • warm envelope or blanket;
  • anti-scratch gloves.
Warm fabrics and threads should be non-coarse and natural. An envelope or duvet can be fur, on a sheepskin, on a fluff or wool.

All sorts of sets for discharge for each season are now very widely represented, where all the necessary things have been specially selected. They are designed in the same style, look good together and complement each other.

Such a set will be needed if the parents of the baby decide to order a photo or video of an extract. In addition, in the future, separate items from the set can be used for a newborn photo shoot.

Choosing a beautiful envelope for discharge from the hospital

The envelope for discharge is a very important, convenient and practical thing. Firstly, this is the very first holiday "clothes" for the baby. Secondly, the envelope can be used not only on discharge, but also after it, for walking.

Now you can find envelopes for every taste and wallet. Warm, silk, handmade, transforming envelopes, with embroidery ...

How to choose the best envelope for the baby? First of all, it is necessary, of course, to take into account the sex of the child. The boys will approach the envelopes of restrained colors with "male" prints in the form of machines, ships, trains.

Suitable as a non-contrast strip or cell. For girls, envelopes with a delicate floral pattern, in pastel shades, with lace trim and satin ribbons will be ideal. If the parents do not want to know the gender of the child, you can prepare a neutral envelope of white, yellow, olive, mint or beige color with a laconic pattern.

When choosing the color of the envelope, you can also rely on the color of the clothes of the parents, in which they will be on the statement, to support the now family-look fashionable, or on the color of the baby’s stroller.

A good choice would be a transforming envelope. It easily turns from envelope to duvetko, and then - back. And it can be used both at home and on walks. Unlike classical, such envelope will serve not one month.

Another important criterion when choosing is the material from which the envelope is sewn. Fabrics must be natural, pleasant to the body. If the envelope is warmed - then the filler must be hypoallergenic. For summer envelopes, cotton fiber is the ideal filler.

It is necessary to take into account the time of year in which the mother will discharge with the baby. If this is the off-season - autumn, spring, then envelopes made of raincoat fabric with insulation inside will fit. They will protect the child from rain or sleet.

For winter there are special envelopes filled with fluff, they can also be with fur inserts. Summer envelopes are very light, breathable, usually made of cotton.
