Aw that's so cute! I'll probably go out and pick one once we know the gender :) cannot wait
 
Awww, that's precious!

We do have one, but I'm not sure if it'll be weather-appropriate now. He's due in later August, and it'll be really hot. The outfit we have is long sleeves and pants...I'm not sure that we shouldn't just get a cute onesie, and forget it! LOL!
 
We were going to stay Team Yellow but hubby is insisting we find out! :haha:

We find out the end of this month and that will be top "to do" once we know.
 
We're staying team yellow so ours will be a white sleep suit with a yellow cardigan over the top. A bit boring but it always looks cute and works for either gender. It's what both my boys came home in too xx
 
No my boyfriend and I haven't bought a thing for the baby yet. Mainly because we wants to know the sex. And we have to clean out the spare room for the baby. Lol! So we can make sure the things we buy are stored properly.
 
What size is everyone getting their coming home outfits in? Is it a good idea to have a few different size options just in case?

My daughter was swamped in hers and she had new born size. I may grab a tiny baby and a newborn, hoping this baby won't be bigger than newborn size lol. My husband was a 13lbs baby. My daughter was 6lbs 14.

This is my worry - I have no idea how big hubby was as a newborn, but I was 5lb 5oz, and I'm not particularly tall now, so thinking there's a possibility LO will be pretty titchy.

I think to be on the safe side I will get sleepsuits in tiny and newborn sizes for hospital, just in case, and if baby turns out to be a whopper, we'll have lots of 0-3 at home that can be picked up if needed. I don't know why I'm stressing, the hospital I'll give birth in sells baby clothes in two of the on-site shops, and there is a small town centre 10 mins walk away with plenty places I could send hubby to for baby clothes, it's not like baby will have to be naked, lol. I just don't want to pick a special outfit and have my heart set on it and then baby ends up too big or too tiny for it. (can you tell I'm a ftm?? :dohh:)
 
I will bring two outfits, one newborn and one 0-3....my son was almost 5 pounds at 32 weeks so I believe this baby will be almost 8 pounds....
 
I'll buy a new suit in newborn size but will be packing a few tiny baby suits that I have from DS2 just incase. dS1 was 8lbs 15oz so fit newborn right away, DS2 was only 6lbs 15oz and not very long at all so had to get my mum to bring in tiny baby stuff for him x
 
With my son I bought his going home outfit in newborn but i did pack a sleepsuit in 0-3 just incase he came out over ten pounds lol. He was 7 pound 11 and the newborn sleepsuits even seemed big on him.

This time again I'm going for the going home outfit in newborn but packing a sleepsuit in 0-3 just incase.
 
I still dont know for sure the sex of the baby- but I have had a few 10.00 free coupon from kholes and picked up a bit and a girl outfit- both 0-3 months- My son (who is 19 years old now) was 8.9 and 21 inches- This baby already looks like they have really long legs and was 13 oz at 20 week scan so I'm thinking this little one might be on the bigger side. ya never know though- I was thinking of getting a gender neutral new born just incase- I do hope to find out the gender though- at the 20 week scan they said I was too fat to see anything- which is bull cause I had a private 14 week scan that was soo clear- and my doctor has still not ordered a rescan! I'll be 24 weeks in a few days-
 
I brought Logan home in a plain white sleepsuit that id customised with his name on, going to do the same with Poppy with a pink sleepsuit :thumbup:
Logans was huge on him, it was newborn size and he was 7lbs 5oz. Going to use a newborn size again and hope its not comically big :thumbup:
 
Aww that's gorgeous! We have that sleepsuit too but in 6-9 months :thumbup:
I'm undecided but this one is my fave at the mo that I just bought from Costco, sorry the pic is small but i'm thinking the sleepsuit and vest if it's cooler (with a cardi over if needed) or the vest and pants (again, with a cardi if needed) if it's warmer. I'm just a bit in love with the hat :cloud9:

It's 0-3 but quite small fitting. My DD was 9lbs 4oz but even at that weight (and being a tall baby) most 0-3 was too big for her initially including the outfit i'd planned as her coming home one!
 
This was Logans....
