Maternity hospital discharge kit
What should be included in the discharge kit
Discharging a child from the hospital is usually thought out by the father and mother. The woman takes responsibility for choosing a kit that will be worn on the baby. The man prepares the apartment for the date when the spouse and child will be discharged from the hospital.
As a rule, the kit includes the following components:
- 2 diapers (chintz or cotton, flannel);
- 2 caps (light-summer and also warm);
- if it's cold outside, then you need a winter hat;
- 2 undershirts (warm and light);
- diaper;
- an envelope for discharge, it is also warm (for autumn and winter) and lighter (for spring or summer).
Important! This set is in a classic format. Optionally, you can add unique clothing, for example, a jumpsuit for a boy or a dress for a girl. The main thing is that clothes are made of natural fabrics, preferably cotton or chintz, things should not hinder the movement of the baby, the baby's skin should "breathe".
If the discharge in winter
To discharge the baby from the hospital in the winter, you need to prepare well. Cold weather and harsh winds oblige parents to be more attentive to the baby and to ensure a comfortable stay outside the first time.
Note! If the extract falls in the middle of winter, when the frosts are especially fierce, and the wind is cold and strong, what is in the set may not be enough. You should take care of additional items of clothing.

In a light envelope, baby's skin breathes and does not have time to overheat.

Tips for choosing clothes
How to choose a set for a ceremonial discharge of a newborn and not miscalculate? Use the advice of experienced mothers.
Recommendations:
- If the baby is large, you should take clothes of at least size 62.
- Take size 56 to a minimum, if things fit, then they will only last for a month and a half.
- When buying, take into account the season and temperature in the house.
- The clothing should be sufficient. It should be remembered that in the first three months babies spit up a lot, so things will have to be changed often.
- Overalls, slips are taken size in size, bodysuit - one size or two more.
- Before buying a brand of clothing, you should read customer reviews to determine the exact size.
- Take things from natural quality materials.
Overalls
If it is winter outside, then the overalls are taken warm, even if it is 5 minutes walk from the hospital to the house. The size must be taken at least 62 cm, in view of the fact that the crumb grows rapidly in the first months, so clothes by 54-56 cm may simply be small soon. The material and thickness of the overalls depend on the season, the color and appearance - on the preferences of the mother.
Baby Glory Jumpsuit
Suit and dress
The modern market today offers many options for more original clothes, for example, a boy can take a strict trouser suit with a bow tie to a solemn event, a beautiful airy dress for a girl.
Dress for discharge
Girl costume includes:
- Bodysuit and pants;
- Anti-scratches and a hat.
If it's cool outside, then you need to put on a terry jumpsuit or another blouse on top, then wrap it in a blanket or envelope. A dress for a baby should be chosen as a "bodysuit" - this can be fastened on a diaper, the baby will be very comfortable in it.
Slip
Slips are very comfortable and practical - you can sleep in them, go for a walk in the summer, or stay awake at home.
Slip to discharge
In a slip, the most important thing is natural fabric and a matching piece of clothing. If the slip is small, then the buttons located on the inner side of the legs will rub the newborn's skin, the baby will scream and worry.
Other clothes
If necessary, you can purchase other things. There are important rules when buying these:
- All seams should only be outward, so as not to injure delicate baby skin.
- Clothes should be comfortable for the baby. Yes, extraordinary clothing models are very beautiful, but they are not always comfortable for a child at that age.
- Do not take any synthetics, only pure cotton, chintz or flannel.
