What size baby onesie should you buy to take baby home from the hospital?

Spring is just beyond the horizon and we are buzzing with excitement for all our newborn babies! When it comes to choosing the perfect gift for the new little-one in your life, it can be confusing and tricky.

Here are some tips to choose the perfect "take baby home from hospital" size!

  • Newborns can vary in size and shape based on a variety of factors, but full-term babies on average weigh between 6 and 8 pounds.
  • They are usually between 19 and 21 inches long. Our 0-3 months size fits up to about 10 pounds if you want to give the gift the baby can wear when leaving the hospital.
  • Of course, if you think the baby is going to be very large, you can opt for the next size up—the 3-6 months size which fits up to about 16 pounds and typically fits babies up to 6 months.
