Do you have something for your babe picked out yet? Show me! I've always thought my kids look good in navy blue, then as I was looking at pictures, I realized they both came home from the hospital wearing navy! So I'm currently looking for two matching or coordinated newborn navy rompers for the girls to wear. Something like this but with long sleeves/pants.

I've had this picked for weeks, and it's washed and folded with the rest of her hospital clothes ready to be packed 💗

I love all of them! I can't believe they'll be worn so soon!

Both my kids came hope in a sleeper. I picked out a girl one and a boy one and then I just returned whichever one I didn't use. (Team green obviously). I'll do the same for this baby.
My plan was to get the sleepers made into teddy bears but I never got around to it.

I bought a rainbow onesie and will find a pair of leggings to go over it. Probably ones we already own once I find the tote with newborn clothes in it.
We brought a few different options to the hospital for E but they were all 0-3m and she was super early so none fit. MIL brought us a NB sleeper that we took her home in and even that was too big. Hopefully the NB onesie I bought will fit. E is still scrawny and hard to fit clothes and this one is measuring small too.

This is the outfit we brought DS1 home from the NICU in. I'm thinking I might use it for DS2 as well since it has a lot of meaning for us. Unless I find something I can't live without. PDQ pics
**Poofed tiny human pics** But outfit is a little striped rugby, baby pajama jeans, and a little red and white converse hat

We have this from Gap. It's 0-3M size which is 7-12 lbs. So I'm really hoping it works. This kid has been measuring ahead since 13 weeks, so I'm banking on a bigger baby. We also have this in teal for a backup if needed. It's by Cat & Jack. NB size which is like 6-8 lbs.

Blue is the boy outfit. White is the girl outfit. We will also probably use the hat to announce if it's a boy or girl on social media. We will send family members a picture of the baby both are size NB. DS was 6 lb 7oz when he was born and measured ahead my whole pregnancy so I'm not anticipating a baby bigger than 7 lbs (unless I go to 40 weeks).

I forgot I bought this onesie, which would be probably be a good option if we decide against using DS1's outfit again.

I bought this sleeper in NB size. I'm hoping it fits! We brought my son home in a similar one so I thought it would be nice to do something close but still his own. I'm still debating getting a bow tie etsy outfit for NB pics. I figure if I buy it in a 3 month size he can wear it for holiday events as well and maybe justify the cost a bit. TBD.

doxiemama, I have several brand new "fancy" 0-3 month outfits that were never worn that people got me. Like still have the tags on one of them. Go for it if you will use it, but if you question it, I would hold off.

She'll probably just come home in a sleeper that we already own. I haven't decided which one yet, it's not really a huge thing for us.
I think we settled on a name, poofity poof. I'd love to do some first pictures of her wearing a smaller version of this shirt: poof
Her name may have been inspired by a bakery we love in WA, but people are naming their kids after fictional comic book metals (see most recent Blinds thread) so I'm not really worried about it being weird. Hopefully the store has tiny sizes and can get it to us soon!

All DD's hospital clothes are size NB. Even though DS was massive he was in NB for a good 3/4 weeks. He was in 0-3 vests by 2 weeks though

I haven't really decided yet! I have one outfit my mom bought, but I'll see if I get anything at my shower that I like more.

And they really did just name their baby that

Problem: The smallest size the bakery has in this shirt is child 8. poof
They have this shirt in a 3-6m or 12 m, but I think is is arguably less impactful for our purposes.
poof
Would you get the smaller shirt or just use DS's 2t as a background or extra large nightie for pictures?
Serious business, guys.

AnnPerkins I think you should use the 2t one as a backdrop, but get the smaller one for future use. So cute!

I've been meaning to take a pic of his take home outfit but I keep forgetting! I will get in that. All these are so adorable, I can't wait to see little squishes in them!

My kids were 8.5 lbs each and still both wore NB for almost a month and a half. I'll probably buy a NB and 0-3 just in case anyways.

clucky, what a cute idea! I don't sew or know anyone else that does, but I'd like to learn how in the future. I think we will just use what we have as a background. I really don't like the weird chocolate dollup on the cookie. Crisis somewhat averted!
