Find a Newborn Coming Home Outfit
Boy or girl, there's a perfect newborn coming home outfit for every baby
It may seem simple, but the newborn coming home outfit actually needs to meet several key criteria:
~ Above all, it must to be comfortable. Cotton is king.
~ A newborn take home outfit needs to keep baby warm, especially those tiny feet & head.
~ It needs to allow for easy diaper changing (think snaps or an open bottom, as in a newborn sleeper "gown" or sack) .... new babies go through a LOT of diapers, so don't overlook this.
~ It needs to be photogenic. You (or somebody else, if you're too zonked) will be taking roughly two billion of them on coming-home day.
~ It's got to be as cute as your baby. Not possible, you say? Point taken. But it must be super ultra mega cute.
Below, some handpicked newborn coming home outfit candidates that are up to the challenge. I've categorized by boy & girl, but marked a few of these cuties as unisex options--in case you've decided to be surprised, as I was the first time round :) In addition, there's a "true unisex" category down at the bottom with choices that look equally "boy" & "girl."

baby boy
The core piece in this set is a little sleeper sack -- soooo easy for diaper changes, yet so cute with the black and white trim.
I love the merry monkeys on this coming home set.
Mocha stripes plus baby blue are perfect for showing off a tiny new son.
Herald your your pint-sized Prince Charming with tiny blue dragons, castles & crowns on this newborn take home outfit. Don't be put off by the "preemie" size unless you anticipate having an over-10-pound baby.
Part of me thinks this look is too grown-up for a newborn boy, but it is just so CUTE, I think I'll let that slide ;)
Golfer dads (or moms) will love this onesie set, perfect for a summer coming-home date, or if you live in a warm place.
But of course his name is handsome! Another whimsical warm-weather pick. The look of full, albeit mini mini, baseball attire, is really a foolproof snapping bodysuit. And the little socks look like baseballs! Home run.
Got a rocker in training? Make beautiful music when you dress baby in this little gown.**unisex option**
baby girl
This whimsical sleeper sack & matching hat are tailor made for photos.
The pink crown across her tiny chest says it all! The perfect outfit for bringing your little princess home to her castle.
So pretty! Soft ruffles &rosettes turn a simple gown shape into something truly special for coming home. Also in white.
"Thank Heaven for Little Girls" this gown proclaims, and nobody who sees your daughter in this will disagree.
The skirt-like ruffle makes this newborn coming home outfit a bit more elaborate than some of the other outfits, but it still looks cozy. Even at this age, apparently, you need not sacrifice comfort for style :)
A soft sleeper sack comes with matching hat & booties -- a true one-stop-shop for coming-home preciousness.
Soft pink leopard print for your fashionista in training.
Mud Pie does it again -- this time in soft pink velour with sweetly subtle ruffle and ribbon details.
Like the black and white damask versioin, this features girly ruffles on the back and, per the reviews, is perfectly sized for a coming home outfit.
Looking for more bling? Done and done.
Straight out of a spring garden comes this vintage-inspired floral pattern. Tiny bows and ruffles add a girly touch without going over the top. A pretty matching blanklet completes the soft cotton set.
Your tiny girl can be sophisticated but still sweet in this ruffled damask outfit. (See the back view!)
She'll love horses from the get-go with this happy pink set. Configure the outfit in a variety of ways, depending on the weather on coming-hme day.
Tulle florettes add interest here to a soft pink cotton gown & hat. "true" unisex
Keeping baby's gender a surprise? The coming-home options have never been cuter ...
