Clothing for 0-3 month summer babies?

I had DD in August so some of her clothes are not going to work for this baby girl. Just wondering what type of clothes you used a lot for May-August?  Or even early fall?  Thanks

Re: Clothing for 0-3 month summer babies?

  • If you are meaning what kind of style, I am a big fan of rompers. One piece, easy diaper changes, no pants to mess with, good on a hot day, and looks nicer than a onsie. These are some of the various styles I pulled off of Carter's website:

  • It was COLD in Wisconsin last year in May and June. I think in Michigan you might have similar weather. Make sure you have stuff with long sleeves. I used a lot of size newborn sleepers.

  • Agree with above, it was cold(er) last year in May and early June in Michigan.  Who knows what this spring/summer will hold; the winter has been mild.

    When DS was a brand-new newborn, we still used a lot of long sleeve and long pants.  I did put him in (a boy version) rompers  / shorts, etc.. when he was 5-6 weeks old I think, but then had to be careful outside to make sure that his pale little skin didn't get too much sun.  By about 4 weeks on, he slept in just a onesie and a swaddle.  

    By fall (September), he was back in long sleeve & jeans for the most part, with the exception of the occasional day that was very warm.

  • It was really hot here this summer, and I was also a huge fan of rompers.  DD sweated in anything more than a romper or onesie and leggings.

  • We live in the desert so it is pretty much hot all year round here. During the summer I would put DD in a romper if we were going out in public. Otherwise she just wore a onesie around the house if I put anything on her at all.

  • Definitely rompers or one piece outfits. They are cute and not such a hassle. We had a few dresses with separate bloomers, but the dresses ride up ALL.THE.TIME. Keep it as simple as possible!!
  • My daughter was born at the end of May & we had a pretty hot summer.  That meant we were inside in the air conditioning most of the time so she wore a lot of sleep & plays or onesies with leg warmers/pants.  If we were outside I liked the rompers or I had some cotton dresses with a matching diaper cover that were nice & cool for her (and cute!)

  • One-pieces for sure (rompers, sunsuits, etc).  Just so much easier and comfy for baby.

    Inside with a/c, the standard sleepers or onesies with pants/socks as necessary.
