Boy take home outfit ideas

MexiBride08

Okay ladies, we all know it can be super hard finding cute boy clothes.  I am having trouble with a "coming home outfit".  I dont want a sports team thing- I want somethine cute and serene.  Any ideas?  Also, I have no idea what size to buy.  He may be here early.  Guess I can just buy a premie one (if I can find it) and a newborn one (he would be able to wear it later if he came early).  I know it is a small detail and I will probably look back and wonder why I put so much thought into it -  but I want something cute dang it!

Henry peed all over his coming home outfit 10 minutes before we left

I found it at Gymboree, it was cute, white with pea pods on it.

We bought a Pixie Lily gown and has his monogram embroidered on it.

I'm glad you asked this. I've been wondering the same thing but can't find anything I like.

I'm always partial to a traditional Feltman Brothers...I love the little blue outfits for boys....

We put our LO in a cute sleeper with matching jacket and hat. It was cute and warm. We actually got good use out of the sleeper for a few weeks after he came home, too.

Echoing Radler, I would recommend checking out department stores like Nordstrom, Macys, etc.  Here is a cute outfit from Nordstrom:

I got cute 3 piece outfits from JCPenney.com (Carter's brand) that were pants, onsie and jacket/cardigan.  They were only $10 each, warm, and could be easily reused over and over as long as they can fit in them.  I got newborn size since that's 5-8lbs in Carter's, which we could expect at this point.  Carter's also has a lot of the same outfits in preemie in the store.

I got something like this from Kohls

DS coming home outfit was so huge on him, it really didn't matter what was on it. He was a preemie and I didn't have time to go out and get a different size before he was released from the hospital. It was cute though with a lion on it and it was also fun on his 1 month birthday to put him in the outfit to see how much he grew.

Just FYI about preemie outfits, they run in all different sizes. Some preemie things I had were bigger then newborn clothes I had. Others were so small they never fit him.

DS was 4lbs 9oz when he was born.

We got a really cute sleeper with a matching hat/newborn cap. I wanted to put him in something cozy comfy instead of dressing him up. I got it at Macys, check them out they have adorable stuff and reasonably priced on sale.

I suggest getting a matching sleeper and little baby hat.  You will want your baby to be comfy:) 

I had a onesie for Reed and socks that were newborn and still came up past his knees.  He was so little and cute!

I made Penny a dress.

Since I was like you, and on bedrest, i knew I would have a preemie. We went to BRU and found a nice 3 piece preemie outfit and a newborn outfit not knowing how big he would be. Since he was only 5 lb. 10oz., we went with the preemie outfit and it was big on him! I couldn't imagine what the newborn outfit would have looked like. Here is a pic of DS wearing his outfit. I had opened up the jacket so we could see the cute onesie underneath.
