And no tumble dryer? Still trying to get head around it....we arent bothering with outfits. Cute but look like a faff.

I'd want a minimum of 12 in each size in this situation. They aren't expensive if you get the multipacks so no point struggling with less for the sake of a few quid.

Oh and you'll still need vests for underneath

Ok thanks

At least 15 - we found dd's nappies leaked a lot in the first few weeks

It'll all depend on circumstance. We spent three weeks weeks in hospital with a very pukey baby hospital and puke not related. Every evening, dh would turn up at hospital with about ten clean grows and one of us would take home about the same amount in very wet, pukey grows.

I got a cheap bundle second hand, so had about 20 vests and sleepsuits in newborn anfvthe as in 0-1 month. it worked really well as dd is quite a sicky baby so we seemed to have a lot of changes.

Gets lots of bibs too - the ones with big sides are not as attractive as the trendy triangle ones but they save an outfit if you have a sticky baby and are quicker to clean/dry.

Helbelle do you mean 20 of each?

Yeh, these numbers sounds more reasonable. I was meaning 12 as an absolute minimum, but think other posters have it right when they are saying 15-20, that would be more comfortable.

10 per day sounds like a VERY pukey baby, if you end up in that situation you can always buy more.

I'd get 12 new ones in each size and then a bundle of 2nd hand in each size from gumtree or FB

I'd say at least 20. You'll probably put a fresh one on morning and night plus if baby possets or has explosive nappies you might change a couple of times in between.

Ok i think 20 sleepsuits and 20 bodysuits..thanks
