Where do you start?

Buying baby clothing can be tricky business, especially for first time mums, there are so many baby dresses and outfits to choose from! I know I had a difficult time and made some blunders with my purchases along the way. Take advice from the guide below there are plenty of tips from mums on ‘how to buy baby clothing’ successfully.

1) What kind of baby clothing will I need?

Buying baby clothing can be a boggling experience, as your bump grows you will probably start to panic – ‘I don’t have any baby clothes!’ You will probably do what I did and start wandering around all the stores that sell baby clothes, baby furniture, baby gifts and so on. The choice is endless, this is where the danger lies in buying too many clothes for baby.

Too many baby clothes means your baby will only wear them once or twice (or sometimes not at all), babies grow very quickly and the next size up in that special outfit is needed before you know it! Leaving you with the cutest outfits ever, but no VALUE FOR MONEY.

The ideal way to buy baby clothing is to make sure you have enough outfits to get you through the week in a couple of different sizes, but not so many that you have overflowing drawers of baby outfits that haven’t even been unwrapped before your baby gets too big to wear them; or duplicate clothing that you didn’t really need.

Well, to be fair, duplicate baby clothing isn’t that big of any issue really, especially in the early days when baby clothes can only be worn once and usually for a couple of hours and all clothing needs to be continually washed and washed! In the early days make sure you have numerous baby dresses, bodysuits, comfortable playgro suits, and sleeping suits, basic tees, comfortable cotton pants, warm cardigans and coats or sunhats, depending on the season.

Before you buy new baby clothes check what time of the year your baby will be born, it could be around sale time, which is the best time to buy bulk lots of newborn baby clothing that you are going to need.
Once all of the confusion has settled you will have an exciting time buying your first newborn baby clothes, it is much more fun than buying clothes for yourself (honestly) – and then in time you will be having more fun when your baby grows out of that first lot of clothes, you will find yourself a more experienced shopper in the baby clothing department.

Sizes of Baby Clothing:

Sizes of baby clothing vary from manufacturer to manufacturer so we haven’t listed a definitive sizing guide here. Newborn sizes generally start from 0000 but this is actually quite a small size and unless you have a smaller than average baby, you might only get a month or two from this size. The best advice is to pre-buy in size 000 and then buy extra supplies in the 0000 size if you need to after the birth. Check labels for weight and height guidelines before you buy (average birth weight is 3. 5kg). baby clothing tips

What to look for when Buying Baby Clothes:

wide necks, or easy fastenings to get clothes over baby’s neck easily
fastenings to enable you to remove and change a nappy without completely undressing baby
snaps / press-studs are easy, safer and quicker than buttons
no rough seams or uncomfortable material – natural, cotton, etc, is best
machine washable
check that buttons are sewn on well (baby could choke on little buttons)
no loose threads that little fingers or toes could get caught in
avoid ribbons and strings that babies can wrap around their necks

Hopefully this comprehensive guide to baby your babies first clothes has been helpful to you! Remember, don’t rush in a buy too many clothes before your baby is born, you can always buy more of the garments you need after the arrival of your newborn.

Hair loss with women is something that is becoming more and more common.   A lot of women want to know how to prevent it and what treatments may be available.    Although itis not always preventable, it is important you understand what causes the loss of hair. In order to do this you need to first recognize the growth cycle of hair.

Tresses typically grow at a rate of one-half inch per month with each hair containing a growth phase of two to six years.   When the hair rests, it will eventually fall out and the follicle iwll begin to grow a new strand.   It is a cycle that continues into the senior years for most.

For others, however, a group of hormones called androgen’s will interfere with the natural process.   Androgen hormones include testosterone, androsteinedione and dihytestorserone.   Those who are susceptible can fall victim to the testosterone when it comes in contact with the enzymes resting in the hair cell.   It will be converted into a more potent androgen, which will ultimately blind with receptors.

What this means is over time the excess build-up the potent androgen in the follicle cause shrinkage, which alters the natural resting and growth phases of the hair.   As a result, hair loss will become evident for women much sooner than expected.   Some of the follicles will die and others will become incapable of producing or maintaining healthy hair growth.

THe good ews is all hope is not lost.   There are treatments and products availabe like Hiar Gowth Laser 50 that can deliver tremendous results.   Instead of worrying about wearing a wig the rest of your life, you can actually re-grow your hair naturaqlly to correct the hair deficiency.
