To always dress my baby in a sleepsuit

It sounds like you’re the only one who’s thinking about what your baby is wearing. As long as the baby is clean and comfortable it doesn’t really matter if they’re in sleep suits or outfits. The baby doesn’t care, so the parent gets to dress their baby in clothes they like.

It would probably be good to get some footless sleep suits or baby leggings so your baby has some time with his feet uncovered. It’s really good for them to be able to discoverer the world with their feet and get to explore their feet too.

Yeah, babies are well-known for having strong views on clothes and wanting to be put in complicated outfits 🙄

Kept mine in baby grows well past six months, baby clothes are uncomfortable and impractical for a baby anyway. You know to give the people that comment a wide berth!

Yanbu, I’m the same! I care about comfort and practicality and basically nothing else.

It's not about what people think - many take joy in dressing their baby in nice outfits. If you don't that's fine but there's a reason other people do.

There's also something about getting the baby use to day / night rhythm and clothes.

All three of mine were in sleepsuits/baby grows and vests until about 6 months, there's nothing lazy about it, you have a new baby they don't need to be wearing clothes like us untill they start moving about more independently, baby grows are much more comfortable imo.

I did the same and no one ever said anything to me. I would only notice what a baby was wearing if they were dressed like a mini adult in jeans , which look really uncomfortable.

As long as you are changing the babygro from the one they wore overnight like we do with PJs then that is all that matters

Why though? Change it when they puke or shit on it, which will be soon enough, or after a bath if it's been a while. It's not like they are sweating to any great extent.

You spend enough time having to change a baby's clothes because they've made a mess of them to bother worrying about day and night clothes if you don't want to.

At that age it’s fine, but I think I used to put mine in a long sleeved vest and put leggings over the top as a little ‘outfit’. Still comfy clothes that are easy to take on and off, and I’ve found jeans to be too restrictive.

I used to do this all the time I had other mums apologising they didn't dress their kid for play dates and soon put them straight how I roll 😆
I got oh has mummy forgotten to dress you etc comments.

I wouldn't bat an eyelid at it but personally chose to put my children in outfit. I preferred leggings/joggers and tops/ dresses. I always loved a good theme for classes (baby sensory mostly) too.
Those sock on things are great for keeping socks on.

What on earth is this comment

It's just because they've been rebranded 'sleepsuits'. They used to be called babygros.

Anyway babies spend a lot of the day sleeping or at least lying down. It's fine. All in one suits are comfy, warm and allow full freedom of movement when baby wants to have a wriggle.

I kept my youngest in sleep suits til he could walk. Comfy, cosy and practical.

"...because changing is a faff..."
Says it all; your baby will fit your routine rather than you adapting to you baby. Perfect..

Sleepsuits are comfy and cute and perfect for a 3 month old. They come in loads of cute designs too. They are too nice to just wear for bed. Indeed socks and outfits are a total faff at this age.

Mine both spent a few months in babygrows and then starred to wear some stretchy tops and bottoms. Probably when they started getting too wriggly for all those poppers.

Yes, jeans on a baby are dreadful

People may well judge but it's a bit insane to put an immobile baby in proper clothes. I'm Team Babygrow all the way, clothes shops just saw a profitable gap in the market and ran with it.

Nothing wrong with that at all. I did similar, they're practical and other clothes just bunch up and done look like they could be comfy for a wee baby.

This is exactly what I did. They are so lovely and cosy. I do remember my family making a few comments but I didn't care. I had a giant stack of baby gros and vests in a drawer under the cot at all times and the next size up ready to go in the wardrobe.

I can only imagine how comfortable he is! I always feel a bit miffed at seeing a baby in jeans. I can’t wait to take them off- maybe it’s just me!

Perfectly sensible in my opinion. Tops and dresses just ride up. Some baby outfits look plain uncomfortable.

You'll get dickheads saying, "Oooh, are you still in your jammies?" to your DS. (You can guess how I know!)

I would much rather see a baby in a warm comfy sleepsuit than jeans and silly outfits.

YANBU especially the baby grows with zips. So handy! But if someone bought my baby an outfit I'd make sure he wore it before it was outgrown because I think its rude not to. And then I'd take a photo of him and send it to them to say thanks but I'm very appreciative of gifts I'd say.
