 | Re: Baby's going home outfit....do I need.... Jack came home in a onesie with the bottom snaps. My hospital didn't have mittins but I did and they never stayed on so I just filed his nails down. |

 | Re: Baby's going home outfit....do I need.... my hospital (NS Manhasset) didn't have the mittens, they had these side tie t-shirts with the fold over sleeves that are like mittens.  but i was told we were not allowed to bring her home in that, we had to leave it at the hospital.  
 my doctor said to use a side snap shirt until the cord falls off, the ones that snap in the crotch can rub the stump and irritate it and the baby.

 | Re: Baby's going home outfit....do I need.... I never used the mittens - never even bought them - so I have no clue about that.  My hospital dressed them in a cute undershirt so I used that but I had brought a side snap onsies just in case.  The first week I felt more at ease using side snaps than over the head ones. |

 Pretty much the same here...
 
 hospital provided side snap tees (even some to take home) I had also gotten one package and that was plenty.  It wasn't long before he was in onsies.
 
 I don't really understand the mittens?
 I just cut his nails and kept them short.

 | Re: Baby's going home outfit....do I need.... Oh no, I don't think I have any side snap things.  Are they the full onsies or are they the tshirt? |

 | Re: Baby's going home outfit....do I need.... I bought a bunch of the side snap shirts. It is like a half t shirt. I hear that they are great. When I bought the baby's layette, they included them in there and said that the babies would need them.  |
