I'm a bit new to this so don't know if this is the right place to be putting this...

Just wondered if anyone could recommend a good place to buy newborn bodysuits? short-sleeve and long-sleeve plain white ideally, as we don't know if we're having a boy or girl.

I know that Asda/Tesco sell them, but I don't want to get them if the quality isn't good or if they're going to shrink in the wash.

Any suggestions would be gratefully received,

Thanks,
Amie x

Hi

I found Tesco body suits washed fine and were available in lovely neutral colours. They're really not in new born size for very ling so I wouldn't spend too much xxxx

i'd really recommend sainsburys Tu range, I buy all Avas sleepsuits from there, they wash great and are really reasonable x

We got a load from Primark recently and they've washed really well, kept they're shape and havent shrunk either and so reasonable.

From experience with Libby, Asda's clothes tend to go completely out of shape and shrink loads. Tesco's are better quality but I find them quite expensive now (when you compare to Next for example that are a similar price, I go for Next as the quality is far better).

I honestly don't think you can beat primark, they are cheap, good quality and wash well, you don't want to spend alot as babymilly says they aren't in them long and expect to get sick, wee and poo on them too!

id say primark too, i also love asda's and havent had a problem with them shrinking (mind i never put them in the dryer) x

We tend to get ours from Sainsburys now

Thank you!

Defo refusing to pay M&S prices when I don't want a big pack and they're not going to be worn long.

Ah yes, Primark - why didn't I think about Primark! Will check those out. Either that or Sainsbury's or Tesco's next time I'm there as it sounds like they're ok too.

Thanks again x

i quite like both asda's and primarks body suits...never had problems with either and they do some lovely neutral ones

i found tescos didn't wash that well (and with a sicky newborn we did aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalot of washing ).

i love next and when i have the money most of elijah's stuff comes from there.

h+m also do really nice quality/size plain bodysuits which are cheap and made with organic cotton

I dont think the quality is a problem becaus ethey are only in them 5 minutes. My little girl was in hers for all of 3 weeks and she was premature. Asda is smaller than other shops, their newborn goes up to 9lb and their 0-3 is only 12lb so they really dont last long in them. Wish Id known that before Id bought a load from there. In comparison tesco is up to 11lb and 15lb so a massive difference! x

I have alwayes thought asda and tesco ones cheap and good quality i got most of my new born ones from matalan

Char

I got newborn ones frm asda and found them fine. I now get callums frm tesco and there the onyl ones i find that dont shrink but i dont tumble them x
