What fabric is best for infant clothing?

For soft, extra absorbent fabric, choose baby clothing made from cotton. To make sure baby clothing is free from harmful chemicals and dyes, buy organic cotton fabric. For extra durability, buy infant clothing made from jersey knit. This fabric is stretchy, breathable, and it resists pilling.

What should I look for in an infant bodysuit?

Infant bodysuits are made to be convenient, so look for one with simple snap construction. Keep baby comfortable year round with sleeveless bodysuits for summer and long-sleeve, zippered body suits with built-in footies for winter.

When shopping for a gift, what size should I get for a newborn baby?

Newborn clothing fits babies who range in size from 5 to 8 pounds. But keep in mind that babies grow quickly. Many newborn infants grow out of this clothing within a few weeks. When shopping for a newborn baby gift, buy clothing in three-, six-, or nine-month sizes.
