Summary:Noting is more delicate and fragile than a newborn life, and this is even more true for a premature infant. These days, hospital bills can easily run through the roof, so it can be hard to budget for basics like diapers, bottles and baby clothes. |

So, it will always be a welcome and appreciated gift if you bring their little newborn clothing. Premature sized apparel is available in many different styles, so you don’t have to worry about having your selection limited.
Most department stores and boutiques offer many preemie sized choices, so you can find something whether your shopping for baby boy or baby girl clothes. If you’re wondering what kind of apparel a preemie needs, just stick to sleep wear and comfy day wear. If it’s winter or fall, or even early spring, a great offering to bring is a warm coat or jacket. Premature infants lose heat very easily, so anything to help keep them warm is a good choice. You don’t have to limit yourself to onesies, shirts and pants, either. Consider getting a little beanie or booties. The family is going to be busy focusing on the needs of the early delivery, so give generously from the heart to help them out.

Guidelines for Preemie Apparel
|
©Little Pampered Babies 2007 |
If you’re in the market for premature baby clothing, then there are a few guidelines to help you find the best items. The best place to start is by establishing what a preemie’s life is like for the first few months. First of all, they easily get cold and can’t regulate their body heat as well as older children. Their skin is very sensitive and will be for several months. They’re going to sleep and eat a great deal since it’s so important that they grow. That being said, it’s best to buy apparel and accessories that fit into this lifestyle.
Every preemie needs warm clothes; that’s been said enough, but what are the specifics? For example, the apparel must not fit too tightly yet not be so loose as to risk suffocation or SIDS.
|
The only sure fire way to find these items are through trial and error, so be prepared to return things that don’t work out. As for the sensitivity of skin, look into getting organic baby clothing since it’s free from any residual chemicals and easier on a tiny one’s skinSome helpful accessories are bibs and beanies, since getting cold and spitting up are two things premature infants do best. If you’re not sure what to get, just go for it and learn as you go.
