Layette Checklist

Our time-tested layette list will help you gather all the basic clothing you’ll need for the first few months of your new little one’s life. We believe in the “buy a little extra in case the laundry basket runneth over” plan.

<b>Coming Home Outfit</b> (1 or 2) Choose something soft, warm and perfect for all of the pictures you’ll be taking.

<b>T-Shirts with Side Snaps</b> (4 - 5) These tees slip on easily over little arms without having to go over the head.

<b>T-Shirts with Snap Crotch</b> (6 - 12) Pick tees with the wide split necks to slip over little heads with ease. Soft, thick cotton bodysuits like the ones from BabyGap wash really well and keep their shape.

<b>Pants</b> (6 - 12) Elastic waist pants are super easy to pull on over diapers

<b>One Piece Outfits</b> (3 - 6) Snap-crotch bodysuits will make sure your little one tops the neighborhood best dressed list.

<b>Nightgowns with elastic bottoms</b> (6 - 12) The stretchy bottoms make it easy to change diapers in the middle of the night.

<b>Socks</b> (10 - 20 pairs) Buy many of the same style at once to help keep matching easy.
