We’ve pulled together this collection of adorable premature baby clothes for the very littlest babas so you don’t have to spend this often worrying about shopping.
We know it can be incredibly difficult to source clothes for a premature baby, but the good news is, more and more quality baby brands are catering for prem sizes. We’ve come up with this latest list of the best.
Choosing premature baby clothes
- Opt for 100% cotton, or organic cotton, which are kindest to delicate skin.
- Go for premature baby clothes that allow access to all parts of the baby’s body, with minimal disturbance.
- Don’t spend too much money. While your baby is in the neonatal unit, the may only need to wear a nappy and a hat.
- It may seem obvious, but always make sure baby clothes are machine washable!
