May Baby Going Home Outfits?

Does anyone have some suggestions? I am at a complete loss as to what to buy as one day it is  sunny and 80 degrees and the next 50 degress, cold, and rainy. I am not opposed to buying a couple of outfits but figured someone might have come up with a more creative and cost effective solution.

    I've been thinking the same thing. I decided against getting a super cute dress for her as it may be too cold, instead I'm going to bring her home in a Gap outfit I bought her. It's basically a long sleeved pink shirt and pink stripped pants with a matching hat...it's from their "favorites" collection. I wanted to put her in a cute dress but then I was thinking that it's basically going to be me & dh so it doesn't matter if its more on the plain side. GL

    DS was born late last April. I really wanted an outfit and fell in love with a white cable knit sweater one-piece with short sleeves from babyGap sz 0-3 mos. 

    The reality: DS was in his going home outfit for a total of 1 hour. The time it took to get situated and leave the hospital and then at home for a photo or two. DS was 7lbs, ?oz and the outfit that I got for him was newborn 0-3 mos and HUGE on him. Once he was home he was much more comfortable in a onesie, hat and socks swaddled, but he did wear the outfit a few more times once he was a bit bigger.

    So from experience I'd say it was worth it to get the outfit but don't plan on baby wearing it for that long.

    These are two great options for any time of the year.  Mooncakes convertible gowns.  They come in a variety of colors,  They are a snug sak with mitts if needed, have matching hats and can be resnapped into pants to fit in the car seat.  You can get about three months + wear out of them. Another is the Mooncakes "Rice Cake Take Me Home" outfit.  It is a snap shirt with pants with feet and a matching hat, all in cream. Totally non-gender if needed, both look adorable, you can get use out of the them, and they are very compy for the babies.  You can find them on-line at Withchildmaternity.com
