november baby?

My baby was born late november and I found a couple of merino body suits good to have for the odd cold day and chilly morning, but mostly he was dressed in cotton. Where in the country are you? I am in Auckland but down south you might need more

Our baby was born mid November, we had her in merino for about a month at nighttime (we're in Auckland). But I would probably just stick with cotton if I were you and you're in a not too cold place, you could just put on two layers (ie bodysuit and AIO), and then use blankets for colder nights.

I bought lots of pants, sweaters etc as I thought babies needed to be kept rugged up but I've hardly used any of it, from about a month old they are little sweatboxes!!! Short sleeve bodysuits or singlets are all you need in those hot summer months.

good to know thanks girls - am in auckers too. waiting to see what sex it is then will know if i need to shop!

Early Nov baby in Nelson, we didn't have any merino things for her, just a few of those wool singlet/onsies from farmers (if they still have those, they last forever, I even used one last winter when she was 18 months, size 000!). She was a big warm baby though and our house was warm and well insulated.

DD was a teeny tiny newborn without an ounce of fat on her, I liked having merino next to her skin as its great if its warm or cold. Easier to wash in the machine than normal wool.
