Coming home outfits

in Pregnant after 35
Anyone pick out coming home from the hospital outfits for your LOs yet?  Care to share links/ideas?  I've only just started looking but probably won't buy for another few weeks at least.

    I have a little gown that says "Marked as Christ's Own Forever" I wanted to do a headband...but it will be winter...so going to look for a cute hat for her to wear.

    I just know I'm going to get one of those beanies with ears.. lol.

    I need some flexible options because I'm due in spring and the weather outside can be 80F or 40F. I think I'll be OK if I plan for two layers, and supplement with blankets if necessary.

    @BeckyP005‌ I think it is sweet. We had a dress picked out for DD1 and she ended up coming home in a little white onsie. It was horrible just trying to leave. I was tired...she was tired ( and not latching on). So I said screw it. Lol

    They are having some amazing sales at Old Navy right now for baby stuff. Since I'm also due in March and have NO idea what the weather will be like, I bought a few outfits from there on sale  and had a coupon code. https://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/division.do?cid=51375&mlink=5151,8551007,Top_nav_Baby&clink=8551007

    I got some onesies, both short & long sleeves and pants and a little hoodie.  I have no idea how big the baby will be either, so I got 0-3mo but also some 3-6mo! :)

    I think I must be the odd woman out as I'm not dressing them in anything special. We live 2 miles from the hospital so I'm just using "regular" clothes. Maybe something Thanksgiving related so they can at least wear a few times the first week....

    My first one was in a very cute ducky outfit.  This one however will be in something that is easy to change a diaper in.

    I got a cute little Rocking Horse onesie and footed pants and sweater from Janie and Jack. Will likely use that and then find a pink and blue cap - and use whichever is appropriate :)

    Totally impractical but since this may be our only, figure I can be a little impractical!

    (Edited because link wouldn't work)

    DS#1 had 2 outfits, depending on how big he was (cut-off between NB and 0-3mo size is around 8lbs. He was 7lbs 15oz).

    One outfit was from Gymboree and said "Introducing Me"

    The other was made from someone on Etsy. That's the one he went home in. It was 2 onesies layered on each other. The lower layer was white with a bowtie, and the upper one was a button-up cardigan onesie.

    I did a beautiful little dress for her hospital pictures, then a cute little onesie from Carter's for the ride home.  I had bought a few different picture outfits and a few different take home outfits because when my son was born (overdue) he only weighed 5lbs1oz so everything I had swallowed him up!  So with DD, I wanted to be prepared for that.  :) 

    I found shopping for these outfits, in particular, the most fun...especially for a girl!! :)  There are so many cute options.  Have fun with it!!! :)

    DS and DD both had very cute, but simple outfits.  I put them in shadow boxes and they are hanging in their rooms.  I kind of feeling like going all out with this little monkey. :)
    @Lazzlee79, that's a great idea that I may borrow!
    Honestly, I haven't given one thought to a take-home outfit. I just figured it wouldn't really matter, as no one will really see it anyway. Now I will have to give this some thought! :)

    My mom has all of our outfits we came home in.  Mine was too fragile to use, as it was 38 years old but my brother used his when his son was born, so it was really special.  

    With my son...I didn't keep many clothes...just his hospital/take home stuff, his first pair of shoes he actually walked in, clothes that we took portraits in.  Pretty much all thru Elementary, I kept the shirts he wore on picture day, all his athletic jerseys and his Halloween costumes.

    With my daughter (now 4), I kept alot more.  I've kept all the stuff that I did with my son but for some reason I had a hard time parting with alot of her baby clothes.  I have a gigantic plastic box full of her clothes from the 1st year. Of course I got rid of alot, but there were quite a few outfits I had to keep! LOL

    My husband says I'm a hoarder and I've denied it for years.  But I've come to realize I'm an emotional hoarder. :) I don't box myself in with junk, I just hang on to things cause it has a special memory attached to it.

    chucktgirl - I get weepy when I see them (I can't believe DS/DD were ever that small).  Keeping my fingers crossed they don't get moved to closets when they get older. ;-)
