what do newborns WEAR??

[emeraldgirl1]

I think there has been a thread on this before but I couldn't find it...

The question is in the thread title - what do newborn babies wear? I have no clue!!! Due in March so assuming no need for much heavy fleece/woollen stuff. Beyond that I don't know what the hell I am doing. A nappy, and then...? Expecting a girl, so will she wear tights in the daytime? Is it just day versions of babygros? Do I need vests? Socks? Hats?

Dear Lord, I am clueless, aren't I?

Sorry, forgot to add.

I'd get about 10 vests, 10 baby grows in 0-3 month size - you may find that you don't actually need to buy anything, people can be very generous! Don't bother with 'newborn' size unless your baby is likely to be early/very small.
