Free Baby Clothes


Shopping for baby clothes is one of the most exciting parts of getting ready for your baby’s arrival.  Before you look for baby clothes, read these tips.
Babies grow super fast in their first weeks so some will only fit into newborn baby clothes for a short period of time.  Some do not fit into these newborn baby clothes at all.  Get free baby clothes from reputable sites like this one or exchange the clothes you have for some larger sizes.  Keep the tags on the clothes until you know your baby will fit into them.  The bottom line is- don’t buy too many newborn sizes!  If you take advantage of free baby clothes items, you won’t feel as bad if the clothes don’t fit!
For easy access to diaper changing and baths, make sure your baby clothes have an opening at the bottom or a zipper on the front.  Also be sure your newborn baby clothes are made out of soft and stretchy material so you don’t have to tug your baby’s head!  The bottom line is- make sure you know how the baby clothes go on and off!  The selection of free baby clothes you have access to here, are not only cute, but many have front zippers and openings to make it easy for the hard working mom.
Check labels on newborn baby clothes to ensure they are not hand wash only materials, otherwise you will have to wash a lot of baby clothes by hand.  As if taking care of a baby is not enough!  The bottom line is- easy care is important!
Free baby clothes do not have zipper and elastics or anything that is uncomfortable for your baby.  Many of sponsors and partners baby clothes have many layers of fabric between your baby and the zipper ensuring the most comfort for your angel.  Comfort for the baby is key!
Layering is a must do for your baby so be sure to get lots of free baby clothes for your baby so you can layer them.  A baby needs one additional layer of clothing over what an adult would wear- unless of course it is hot outside.  If you live in a cold environment, buy a snowsuit or fleece instead of thicker options.  Bulky clothes are not comfortable and besides, you should not use baby clothes that are thicker than a fleece in their car seat anyway.
Some free baby clothes items include socks and shoes.  A must have items of baby is lots of socks especially in the cold weather.  Baby socks fall off easily so layer their socks as well.  Some parents put their baby in shoes even if they do not walk, to ensure their socks don’t fall off.  Free baby clothes like shoes should have a wide opening so there is no struggle when getting your baby’s foot inside.  They should be comfortable, too.  And don’t forget safety- baby’s like to chew on shoes.
Lastly, watch for hazards on baby clothes.  While many of the manufactures giving away free baby clothes are very careful about the products they giveaway, sometimes dangerous items can slip through and make it onto a store shelf.
Above all, enjoy free baby clothes and dressing your newborn baby!
