Basic layette Clothes help you keep your baby comfortable, warm, and healthy. You adjust the number of layers of clothing your baby wears according to the surrounding environmental temperature. If you are a new parent and are unsure how to dress your baby, you can ask for advice from someone who is more experienced in child care. As you prepare for baby, keep in mind the most important needs. Even if you plan to use disposable diapers, some flat cloth diapers are handy to use folded as protection for your shoulder while burping your baby or for placing under baby when he or she is not in a bassinet or crib.
Infant clothing is designed to appeal to adults.
Unfortunately, comfort and appeal don't always go together. Read labels and examine clothing features carefully. Fabrics Soft, lightweight fabrics are best for baby's clothing, but not all fabrics are equally comfortable. This is particularly important in summer months when baby will be uncomfortable and perhaps develop a rash if perspiration can't evaporate. Cotton is an absorbent, breathable fiber.
