Autumn Newborn Outfit Guide - What Clothing Newborns Need in Autumn
Share
Autumn in the UK is unpredictable — chilly mornings, warm afternoons, cooler evenings. Newborns can’t regulate their temperature, they need gentle, breathable layers.
General guide is:
- One more layer that you wear
- Natural fibres that are breathable (organic cotton is perfect)
- Avoid bulky layers that are restrictive.
Start their outfit with a long sleeve bodysuit, the Belle & Bea ones we stock are perfect. Soft, breathable and stretchy.
The next layer is the main layer, choosing a teal Belle & Bea sleepsuit or one of our handmade rompers (with room to grow).
The final layer, the outer layer. A breathable jumper or cardigan or coat for keeping your newborn cosy and warm when out and about. As an extra must have item, our new GOTS 100% organic cotton hats are perfect for keeping newborns warm when on autumn adventures without adding extra bulk.
Clothing to avoid for your newborn is clothing that contains polyester. This is a man made material that is manufactured using plastic. As babies cannot regulate their temperature, it is recommended to avoid polyester fabrics as they are not breathable so could cause babies to over heat.
