Dressing Your Newborn 101
Oh, the joys and challenges of dressing a wiggly newborn! As a parent, you want your little one to feel cozy and content, but sometimes getting those tiny arms and legs into clothes can feel like a workout. If you want to make dressing your baby just a little easier, it might be time to invest in some baby clothing from Mama Coco. Here’s why.
Overcoming Common Dressing Dilemmas
Babies are so curious about the world around them. All those happy wiggles and excited kicks can certainly keep you on your toes during outfit changes. And let's not forget the delicate neck and head that need extra TLC. On top of that, most baby clothing comes with tricky fasteners like snaps, zippers, and buttons, all of which can make getting your little one dressed that much more difficult.
Mama Coco's Innovative No-Fuss Designs
That’s why we’ve thoughtfully designed baby clothes that make getting ready for the day easier and more enjoyable for both you and your little one. Our collection of rompers, bodysuits, tops, and footie pants feature our award-winning, zipper-free, Velcro-free design. No more wrestling with tiny fasteners or worrying about skin irritation—just gentle, comfy fabrics that glide right on in two easy steps, so you and your baby can focus on the good stuff.
All of our pieces are reversible, so that you get two outfits in one. If you’re not sure where to begin, we also offer some of our best-selling pieces in convenient bundles. Our Newborn Essentials Bundle comes in four different sleeve options with one Cocoon Swaddle, one Winged Bodysuit, and one beanie. Meanwhile, our Long Sleeve Onesie Bundle comes with a Long Sleeve Bodysuit, Footie Pants, and a beanie. You can also choose from a variety of precious prints with any bundle.
Similar to our Cocoon Swaddle, each baby bodysuit comes in a simple wrap style. All you have to do is lay baby and bodysuit on a flat surface, slide arms and legs through respective sleeves then pull the winged fabric across torso and over leg to secure. This design is especially wonderful if your baby is wearing a cranial helmet since there is no squeezing fabric over head.
And whether you buy a bundle or a bodysuit by itself, all of our baby clothes—from bodysuits to beanies—are made with soft, breathable fabric, with no added chemicals such as flame retardants or adhesives.
Dressing Do’s and Don'ts
Remember, newborns go through a lot of outfit changes—which is why we’ve made all of our baby clothing reversible! Always support that delicate head and neck, and dress your baby for comfort based on the temperature. And don't forget to size up as your little one grows!
