Get the right stuff
If your baby doesn’t want to get dressed, it has nothing to do with the colour or style of the clothing. You still have the final say – for now. But looks alone should not be the only criteria for choosing clothing. Avoid decorations such as beads, ribbons or strings. They contain unnecessary dangers and should – if you still buy the clothing – be removed before wearing.
Try out clothes that unbutton at the neckline. They are very practical for pulling over small heads. Or try out clothes that can be unbuttoned completely and put on like a vest – no need to pull it over the child’s head. Especially for newborn children, romper suits and body suits are better than shirts and trousers so that things do not slip so easily. Choose the right size. If you plan ahead, then the summer clothes might only fit in the winter. And consider the current temperature. A baby’s clothing should not be too warm to prevent overheating. The hands and feet are not the determining areas, because they often feel cooler even though the body is sufficiently warm. The best place to feel the temperature is between the shoulder blades.
