The best for children is pure cotton
First of all, I want to focus my attention on the quality of children's clothing. Clothes for babies, especially the body (ryazhonki, shirts, body and "little men") should be made of pure cotton. The natural tissue gently adheres to the body, it is comfortable and hypoallergenic. Therefore, choose a company you trust, and do not skimp on the quality of children's clothing.
We prepare children's wardrobe
As a rule, in the third trimester of pregnancy, many non-believer future mothers begin to prepare a "dowry" for the newborn. Making a purchase of this kind, a woman receives a lot of positive emotions, which is very important for a successful pregnancy, and for the comfortable development of the baby.
Purchased clothing is only enough for a few months, only for one to three months, depending on the size and growth rate of the child. But do not rush and buy clothes for your baby for a year ahead. It is enough to buy clothes for the period of the newborn and a few clothes in case he grows up and you will not have time to "update" the children's wardrobe as soon as possible. After the birth of a child, it will be easier for you to decide what exactly you like about clothes and what your baby needs.
Buy no more than five things of the same size. The number of sliders will depend on whether you use disposable diapers or not. If you want to completely abandon the use of disposable diapers, then get as many as possible nappies (about 30 pieces) and use them in the first two months as a free swaddling your crumbs. Nappies can be thin (calico) and warm (flannel). In the warm season there will be enough 8-10 flannel diapers, in the cold period their number should reach about 20-25 pieces.
Now let's look at the size of children's clothes. The size of children's clothes for the youngest children, first of all, is determined by the growth of the child. The main "scale" for a year is as follows:
- height 56 - roughly designed for a newborn baby;
- height 62 - calculated for children from three to six months;
- height 68 - designed for toddlers from six to nine months;
- growth of 74 - from nine months to a year;
- height 80 - clothes for a one-year-old child.
But when buying clothes, do not adhere to strict limits. This is the size of the manufacturer. Many people switch to 80 growth clothes from nine to ten months, and from year to year they are already buying clothes with a height of 86. That's what we did. First of all, you need to focus on your child, as well as pay attention to the fullness of clothing. There are clothes that, at the standard size, can "size up" and be tight for a tight baby.
Clothes for babies from "A" to "I"
Now, perhaps, we will consider the types of clothing for the youngest. These are, first of all, body, sliders, booties and socks, blouses on buttons and ryazhonki, overalls or so-called "little men", hats and caps. Sliders, in turn, can be on the rubber band or fastened on the shoulders (using buttons or ties). Recently, among moms of wide popularity, they bought blouses, buttoned buttons, and "little men". Such blouses are very convenient to use. About the little men I want to say that I personally did not like these same "little men", because if the "diaper" accidentally leaked, it was necessary to completely disguise the baby, or at night, if the diaper was changed, it was necessary to completely undress the baby. I really liked the use of blouses on the buttons along with the sliders. But they also have a drawback - blouses are often pulled out of the sliders. Ideal option - body with sliders. But the main thing is that the disposable diaper does not fail, but it is convenient to replace the "spoiled linen".
It is also important to remember warm clothes for the street. If the summer is outdoors, then there are no problems in terms of clothes, of course. But in the cold season, in autumn, winter and spring, you need to have a specific "warm equipment" for useful walks. In the autumn-spring period it is important to have a demi-season overall for the street, but for winter, a jumpsuit or a walking envelope on a sintepon or fur can be used. Popular now is a filler for winter clothing, which is called holofayber. Thanks to this universal filler, it was possible to create clothes that ideally retain heat. But this does not mean that it can be worn "on the lung", thanks to the super-fashionable overalls. That is, if the street is 5, then the clothes should not be very warm, but at -5 you need to dress your baby well, and maybe cover with a warm blanket. Do not forget also about warm panties, blouses and sweaters. They will be very necessary in the cold season.
When preparing a wardrobe for your baby, be sure to consider the time of the year. After all, in the fall, winter and spring you will be absolutely superfluous with short sleeves, but for winter it does not hurt to think about warm mittens, a quality warm hat, and an envelope on a sheepskin. But, one way or another, despite the above tips, experience is the main guide in your future choice. This article is only an additional guide for the right choice.
