Baby born in Spring, what do I need?

Cotton baby hat

Newborn babies are not yet able to regulate their body temperature properly. That’s why it’s important to keep your newborn’s head warm. Our beanie baby hats are made of 100% knitted cotton. Knitted cotton is breathable, warm, and super soft—perfect for keeping your newborn comfortable during the fluctuating spring temperatures.

Cotton bodysuits

Get both short- and long-sleeved cotton bodysuits to be prepared for both warm and cool weather. Lodger bodysuits are made from breathable muslin cotton and feature a convenient wrap-over design, so you don’t have to pull the bodysuit over your newborn’s delicate head. The snap buttons make it easy to fasten. When it comes to baby clothing for spring, dressing your baby in layers is key. Don’t forget the golden rule: your baby should always wear one layer more than you.

Muslin cloths or ‘swaddles’

Since a blanket can be too warm on hot spring days, you can use a muslin cloth or swaddle as a lightweight cover instead. Muslin cloths are made from breathable cotton, making them light, airy, and absorbent. Plus, they dry quickly. Did you know that muslin cloths can be used in many different ways?

Soft wrap blanket

On cooler spring days, a thicker blanket like our wrap blanket is the perfect solution. It keeps your baby warm and cozy in the playpen, bassinet, or car seat. The two openings in the back make it easy to secure the blanket in your car seat, ensuring a snug and comfortable ride for your baby. This way, you can take your little one everywhere while keeping them warm and comfortable.
