PIP Coming home outfit

[bunch]

Whatever your favorite outfit is? I used one given to me at a shower. It was soft and cool.

I think this is one of those things that the bump extrapolates into a BIG DEAL when it's really not. I just picked an outfit I got from my shower that I liked.

I will try to find a pic. M wore a blue long sleeve onesie that said I <3 Mom, brown fleece pants, blue socks & a matching brown/blue stocking hat.

We bought a sleeper and hat that we liked and brought him home in that, covered in a blanket. Nobody saw him except us.

We just put him in the cutest pajamas we had

Um, I forgot to order it for some reason. DS arrived 3wks ahead of his EDD, so we just grabbed whatever we knew was clean. Poor kid, lol,

I got a pink 3 piece set (pants, sweater, hat) for $3 and a pink monkey onesie for $5, both from Target. We'll bring both and see which one fits. Since she'll be born in mid December, I'm more worried that she'll be warm tan fashionable.

I have no idea what DS wore. Maybe just hospital-provided clothes? I don't remember going home from the hospital with him at all, but I was still pretty sick and out of it - I think most people probably remember the going home.

We were already home, so we didn't dress her for a while, just wrapper her in blankets.

DS wore the cutest onesie we had. It was mid June and probably 90*+ outside. I didn't get anything special because we live 5 min from the hospital.

[vanillacourage]

I put my kids in comfy cotton stuff that will work in the carseat (no gowns) and not irritate their umbilical stump.

DS1 - Gap


DS2 - Carter's

This, exactly. The outfits I received as gifts were more 'special' than most of the things I bought for everyday wear, if that makes sense, so I chose one I received from my mom that was comfortable and cute for his 'going home' outfit.

I wanted something special, so I ordered this. It was super cute!

I picked something that looked comfy and that was a shirt/pants so it wouldn't irritate his umbilical stump.

He technically wore pants home, too, though they were a bit of a joke as even the NB size was way too big on him.

[Brie]

It was a terry romper from Baby Gap with a matching hat.

[birdmom]

He wore whatever they put him in in the hospital. A onesie and a sleep sack, maybe? I honestly don't remember, it wasn't a huge deal to me. I was too busy freaking out about what the hell I was going to do when I was home and had to take care of a baby without any nurses to help me...lol.

Don't forget they can't wear anything thicker than a heavy fleece in the car seat, no puffy coats, or snowsuits. In an accident the down compresses and the baby flies out of the straps. You can get covers for the car seat to keep them warm.
