How many outfits will baby wear IN the hospital?

I have the take home outfit all ready to go...

but will the baby wear any outfits while in hospital? Or just a diaper and the blanket? Should I bring little pj's? Or little day outfits?

I'm especially asking in case I have a c-section and we're there longer.

What do you think?

The hospital gives you t shirts to use they are swaddled most of the time anyway . I never brought outfits for the hospital just used what they have. Jmo

Zero. I didn't dress DS until the say he was going home in his take home outfit. They either leave them with nothing or their t-shirts and a diaper. And he was in NICU for 10 days. Its easier for them if they aren't dressed.

Guess I'm the oddball. She wore 2 outfits while in the hospital (I was too sick Day 1 to dress myself, let alone the baby) and then her take home outfit. I loved getting her all dressed everyday!!

The nurses actually prefer the baby to be in a tee and diaper only....It is much easier for all the frequent diaper changing, checking etc...

wow really good question. I wouldn't have thought about bringing more outfits but I guess from what the other mommies say, we dont need them.

I brought like 5 or 6, just in case I want to put him in something else, the photographer comes to the hospital room so I wanted to make sure I had enough, will probably mostly use what they have an the swaddleme i bring.
