How To Choose A Sleep Suit

Dr Geetanjali Shah guides you on how to pick the right sleepsuit and sleep accessories for your li’l one.

There are two types of sleepsuits. One is called the jumper of romper, which is a one-piece suit with full sleeves, that covers the hands and legs. The other sleepsuit is one which allows the body to be covered, leaving the feet open.

Sleepsuits also have press buttons which are around the diaper area and go down the leg. These make it easier for the mum to change the baby's diaper without removing the suit or disturbing the baby. Some babies don’t like to be in a one-piece suit, so you can dress them in a full-length jhabla or t-shirt and pyjamas. Cover the hands and feet with mittens and socks to keep the baby safe from mosquito bites and bed bugs.
