FAQs

How do you put names on baby clothes? ›

You can use iron-on labels or permanent markers in your color-match system to label toys and other items. Another option is to use a laundry marker pen or a Sharpie marker to write names onto the clothes. There are also companies that create personalized labels, either as stickers or iron-ons.

Bodysuits and onesies are necessities for the first year of life because they're convenient and comfortable for babies who only lay down or crawl (shirts tend to ride up, and pants tend to fall down).

What your new baby needs: 6-8 bodysuits or vests – for babies born in spring, autumn and winter these are usually worn under a sleepsuit (or a little outfit). They are like little T-shirts that fasten with poppers between the legs. In summer these can be worn on their own.

Baby clothes are the most common gift that new parents receive, but the average cost of clothes is around $50 a month for the first year. Using hand-me-downs or shopping at second-hand clothing stores can help you save in this area.

A good rule of thumb is to give your baby 1 extra layer of clothing than what you're wearing. For example, if you're in a t-shirt and jumper, dress them in a vest, sleepsuit and cardigan or jumper. If you feel chilly, your baby probably does too.

Try not to cover the stump with baby's diaper (plenty of newborn diapers come with a U-notch to ensure baby's umbilical cord isn't covered up). Use comfortably fitting—not tight—onesies, or just dress baby in diapers and T-shirts.

Babies dressed in too many layers of blankets or clothing are at greater risk for overheating and SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome). If you've been out, remove your baby's winter clothes as soon as you come inside (yes, even if he is asleep!). Keep the room temperature cool.

Whether it's short-sleeved bodysuits for sunny days or cozy rompers for bedtime, onesies are the go-to choice. However, as your baby grows and you size up, you'll eventually come to the bittersweet realization: Most onesies stop after 18-24 months.

While there is no strict cutoff date for babies to stop wearing bodysuits, most baby clothing stores only offer bodysuits that go up to size 24 months. As it becomes more difficult for parents to find bodysuits for toddlers, many decide to stop using them altogether.

Here's a minimum number of different baby items that might be useful: 4-6 onesies. 4-6 baby sleeping attire, such as gowns, a sleeping bag.

What is the difference between a baby bodysuit and a sleepsuit? ›

Sleepsuits are usually worn to bed by baby, but could be used out and about too on a particularly cold day. The easiest way to remember the difference as a general rule of thumb is; No feet and legs = bodysuits. Feet and legs = sleepsuits.

It can be confusing to determine the difference between Newborn and 0-3 month clothes, but typically Newborn sizes cover babies in the 5-8 pound range while the 0-3 month sizes fit 8-12 pound children.

A solid emergency fund holds three to six months' worth of your take-home pay. If that sounds overwhelming, start with $1,000, then shoot for one month of expenses, and before you know it, you'll be at your goal.

The average cost of a diaper varies depending on the brand and type of diaper you choose. Disposable diapers: On average, disposable diapers cost between $0.20 and $0.30 per diaper. This means that if you use 10 diapers per day, you can expect to spend between $60 and $90 per month on diapers.

Another seemingly perfect solution is to use fabric stamps or laundry stamps for your children's clothing. This is a stamp, often with a personalised message such as your child's name and phone number. It uses permanent fabric ink to apply the name to the inside of a garment or a care label.

Permanent Markers: Permanent markers are a simple and cost-effective way to label various items. They work well on surfaces like plastic, metal, and cardboard. Using a permanent marker lets you quickly write your child's name or initials on items such as lunch containers, school supplies, and toy boxes.

Set the iron on cotton mode or take the heat level to a medium point. Peel the back of the label if necessary. Fix the label to place you want it to be. Apply heat by 10 seconds, then put the iron aside and check the label, do that as many times as required until creating a solid bond.
