Clothes for winter bub??

I brought short sleeved/no leg bodysuits to use as singlets.
I also brought the snapcrotch singlets so they wouldn't ride up.
Wondersuits( was just about to say in Bonds get the next size up)
Longsleeved & legged bodysuits
Socks, don't get too many
Some warm blankets
A couple of cardis/jackets too
Some warm beanies.

Also this time i'm looking into sleepingbags instead of using wraps. My DD hated having her arms wrapped & one night i happened to wake to find she'd gotten her wrap over her face

Once we put her in the sleepingbag no more issues & it also works as a sleep cue too.

*watches thread with interest*

I have a Oct and Nov kiddies and were expecting a late May bubba so definatly very different!

We are getting lots of all in one suites, I agree the bonds ones always seem smaller then the other brands. Other than that we have blankies/wraps, singlets, socks and beanies. I am going to get a few jacket/pant type outfits for over the top and perhaps a really warm ski suite/outfit type thing as bub will be out in the pram/bassinet multiple times a day doing the kindy and school runs which are literally around the corner from our house so no use getting in and out of a car for that.

All in ones! Last winter wasn't that cold and that's all my June baby wore ( in bris ) you can get them in diff materials weights, the winter before was a bit colder so I bought leggings to go under aios and singlets and a few beanies, try look for ones with feet they are the best

happy shopping

Thanks for that

With DS being born in Winter, buying clothes seemed so much easier.
Will just buy a bit of both for this bub and see how we go.

I agree with the suggestions made, I'm having a boy in June too and I have invested in some nice fleece wraps and woolen blankets- I think to have something warm on bub is good, but wrap them up warm.. That way when u change them you don't have to go thru too many layers, instead u just unwrap them. Just an idea..

I am going to get a tonne of thermal under wear like singlets and pants (socks beanies etc) and put a nice warm body suit on top.. Then WRAP!

I'm sure a winter baby will enjoy being wrapped
