Cutest Take Me Home Outfit!

A take me home outfit should be beautiful and comfortable for baby.  Some parents simply put the baby in a onesie but other parents want a special outfit for pictures and keepsakes.  Whichever camp you are in, there are a few things to consider:

• A newborn outfit does not mean that it will always fit like a glove.  Generally speaking, most newborn outfits are intended for a 7-9 lb. baby.  If your baby falls toward the lesser amount, you may find that it seems big.  If the doctor is saying that it looks like you will be having a small baby, see if you can get some idea of weight, but keep in mind, this is only an estimate.  Plenty of parents have went to delivery expecting a 6lb baby and been surprised when an 8 pounder comes out. If the doctor is telling you that your baby is small, you may want to consider a preemie outfit.
• If you want a sweet newborn cap to adorn their head, look for one that actually comes in a newborn size.  Usually a baby hat that only comes in small and not a newborn size, will not fit a newborn's head.

• Look for gowns and loose fitting baby clothing.  Baby gowns will make the size not as big of an issue and it makes for easy diaper changes.  The Serena and Lily Take Me Home Outfit is one of our customer favorites.  Some baby gowns convert to a romper later which means that you get more outfit for your money!  Also keep in mind that your baby's umbilical cord stump will still be attached so you don't want to have an outfit with elastic pants that may cut across that area.
