Frequently asked questions
Can premature baby clothes be passed down to siblings?
Yes. High-quality natural materials and careful craftsmanship ensure that our clothing withstands many washes and can often be passed down to younger siblings.
Why is your premature baby clothing made in Berlin?
All garments are made with great care in our Berlin workshop. We deliberately produce in small quantities and place great importance on high-quality materials, meticulous craftsmanship, and lasting quality.
Is clothing for premature babies also a lovely gift?
Yes. Many parents appreciate high-quality premature baby clothes because suitable clothing in small sizes is often difficult to find. Particularly practical, adjustable garments often accompany the family for many months.
How many pieces of clothing does a premature baby need?
For the beginning, just a few bodysuits, rompers, pants, and hats are usually enough. Since premature babies often grow quickly, it makes sense to buy only a small basic wardrobe at first.
Which hat is suitable for premature babies?
Especially during the first few weeks of life, a well-fitting hat helps keep the sensitive head warm. Soft baby bonnets with ties are particularly suitable, as they fit securely and do not slip.
When can my premature baby wear regular baby clothes?
As soon as their size and weight allow, many babies gradually switch to regular baby sizes. How quickly this happens is entirely individual and varies from child to child.
Is grow-with-me clothing also suitable for premature babies?
Yes. Premature babies often grow particularly quickly. Adjustable clothing can therefore fit many babies for longer and needs to be replaced less often. At the same time, it provides plenty of freedom of movement.
Does a premature baby need a bodysuit?
For walks or the journey home from the hospital, a one-piece suit can be useful. The appropriate material depends on the season and the temperatures. It is important that your baby neither gets cold nor overheats.
Which materials are suitable for premature babies?
The skin of premature babies is particularly sensitive. That’s why skin-friendly natural materials such as organic cotton, TENCEL™, bamboo viscose, or cashmere blends are recommended. They feel pleasantly soft and help maintain a balanced body temperature.
What is special about premature baby clothing?
Premature baby clothing is specially designed to meet the needs of very small babies. It fits better than regular baby clothes, is made from soft materials, and often makes it easier for parents to dress and undress their babies.
What size does a premature baby need?
That depends on your baby’s height and weight. Many premature babies initially wear size 44; very small preemies may also wear size 38 or 42. Whenever possible, use your child’s current height as a guide rather than relying solely on age.
What clothes does a premature baby need?
Premature babies primarily need soft, comfortable clothing that is easy to put on and take off. Bodysuits, rompers, pants, hats, and coveralls made from skin-friendly natural materials are particularly suitable. It is important that the clothing does not constrict and provides enough freedom of movement.
