What are you having baby wear while at the hospital?

Originally I thought that she would just wear the usual side snap tee that the hospital provides, but I've been reading some posts about people buying something special for their lo to wear.  Now I'm thinking it might be nice to have something different.  What are you gals doing?

    We have an outfit to take her home in but she's just going to wear the hospital stuff while there.

    I won't be dressing LO till we're ready to leave the hospital.  As far as I'm concerned, she will just be in a diaper and wrapped in a blanket.  :o)

    This. I'm also wearing the hospital gown. The way I look at it, the less laundry I have to do when we get home, the better.

    I have a onesie I found at The Gap Outlet that's all red and says "I've Arrived". I'm going to have him wear it the day he's born.

    We are just doing the special outfit to come home in, which fiance will pick out shortly after LO gets here. We're team green and want a gender specific outfit to go home in. And since he won't be able to really help with any of the baby shopping ahead of time, I thought this would be a great idea for him to pick out something special all on his own...umm...well...likely under the supervision of SIL so that he knows for sure it will fit the baby :)

    While in the hospital whatever they provide. Or just wrapped up in a blanket. They check LO so often why mess with having to snap or unsnap something. We do have a coming home outfit for LO.

    DD just wore the shirt from the hospital with a diaper and blanket. Much easier than changing clothes! Also, for me, i was afraid to pull anything over her head for a couple of days til I got more comfortable with her!

    DD wore the hospital tee until we put her in her going-home outfit. DS will do the same.

    I just found out on our tour tonight that he can wear whatever I want him to. I'm thinking about bringing a few sleepers or gowns.

    We have clothes packed for each baby to wear their entire stay in the hospital.  We did the same with DS and I'm happy we did.  They go through those clothes so fast, why not get a few more days of use out of them?

    dressing them is a pain and for sure is unnecessary laundry when they are fresh from the oven- my baby will be in hospital provided gear until I take him/her home.  It's seriously is amazing how much laundry you'll need to do within a day of baby coming home.

    Me too... though I'm open to hospital shirts and blankets, too.
