So I remember seeing something like this before, but can't seem to find it. I just had my baby shower this weekend, so I'm finally getting around to buying all the last minute stuff that I need for baby. Personally, I'm going as minimal as possible and have a good sense of what supplies/"things" I do and don't need. But I am totally at a loss in terms of clothes.
For my shower, we decorated short sleeved onesies and short sleeve t-shirts, so I have about a dozen of those all together in newborn-6 month size. And.... that's it! I live in a climate that is hot & humid all year long (no a/c at my house), so I'm wondering, do I need to buy some long sleeved things too? What about sleepwear? These days I personally sleep almost nekkid and DH only uses a sheet, but I know that the baby needs a little more temp regulation. I got a few A&A muslin swaddle blankets, but maybe I should get some long sleeved sleepers too?
And what about hats & socks or baby legs & pants? There are a lot of a/c buildings (like the grocery store) that we will visit. And, what's the deal with bibs? Are they really helpful for drool, or really only necessary once baby starts eating solid foods?
Sorry if these questions seem a little silly, but I am seriously NOT excited by most baby clothes, so I'm really just planning on going to Target and buying the bare minimum of what we need. Thanks so much for any advice you have for me!
