Layette Checklist
For the first few weeks and months keep your infant covered sensibly with baby clothing that you need. Exactly how many of each item you’ll need depends on how often you do laundry. Our suggestions are estimates. Infants grow quickly though baby will be tiny upon arrival, newborn sizes will soon be too small to fit the clothes. Check for snaps, buttons and tags that might scratch, and avoid zippers, which can pinch.
