I was a bit over the top, but a newborn going home outfit to rival the women on the red carpet has become quite the norm since my first child was born. 10 years later, I chuckle at the sight of my new baby’s coming home outfit of a tutu ballerina onesie, tights, hair band, and matching shoes. And although sized for a newborn, she was swimming in it all. Even the headband fell off her head. Still, looking at my little creation all dolled up made me the happiest new mom ever.
I had purchased her coming home from hospital outfit months before she was born and hung it in her closet on a delicate, linen hanger. Picking out babies coming home outfit is such a special moment for an excited new mom! I would peak in there every so often to dream about the baby that would one day wear it. So for all the new moms out there dreaming too, I understand how you feel! This coming home outfit is important and you should absolutely indulge in this special, once-in-a-lifetime moment.
Babies Coming Home Outfit
Newborn Going Home Outfit
The babies coming home outfit is just the first of many adventures and expressions of the coming year, but new moms rejoice in making this decision… and I totally get it! Here are 3 things to keep in mind as you’re choosing baby’s outfits:
- Safe for baby
- Comfortable for baby and easy for mom to put on (and take off!)
- One special element to celebrate baby’s arrival, such as a message, fancy headband or fabric selection.
Here are some ideas for a going home outfit that is great for the excited new mom…

March 22, 2012 at 1:24 amI always wanted a really beautiful going home outfit for a little girl, and I have to admit, my boys didn’t really get all that dressed up for the occasion. But at the time, I was just so smitten with their cute little onsies they had that to me it was perfect and cute and adorable and all that. I knitted a special beanie for Jordan and Adrian got to wear it too, but I can’t even remember if Eli wore it out of the hospital, but part of me thinks that as soon as we left the air con building, it had to come off. I’m not even sure if it’s still in wearable condition for this next little man. I’ve got some of his clothes all ready to go, but haven’t worked out where to put the rest so haven’t had a look at the state that they are in.
Can’t wait to see what gorgeous outfit your little man

I just came across your website and I’ve been looking long and hard for the right take home outfit for my baby girl. I have three boys, this is my last baby and we were blessed with a girl. I am over the moon! I’m trying to find the outfit that you have pictured ( the “ridiculous going home outfit”) and I can’t find it anywhere on your website. Did you make it or buy it ? If u bought if from where??? How much was it all. The satin booties as we’ll and headband? Please get back to me as I’m due in 6 weeks. Thank u so much. You children by the way are both adorable.
Thank u

July 28, 2014 at 10:15 amHi Marnina, Congrats to your new baby girl! What a blessing! I got Alina’s going home outfit at Babies R Us almost 5 years ago. It was the Koala brand and it cost about $30. Hope that helps!
