Buying guide for clothes of baby boy
It is both difficult and exciting to buy clothes for babies, whether you’re buying for yourself or a gift for someone else. There are various sizes and clothing guidelines which you can follow as new parents. Here are some important tips that you should follow to choose the best clothing for your baby boy.

The 4-zero size is for newborn baby boys who weigh around 3 kg. This size will be ideal for babies up to about 1 or 2 months. The triple-zero size is for baby boys who are up to 3 months old and weigh about 6 kg.
The double zero size can be for babies who weigh around 6 kg. This is the size your boy will wear as he starts on solid food and explore his surroundings. Babies aged over 9 months should fit size 0 clothes.
Choosing The Best Design
You should buy comfortable clothes such as grow suits, which will allow access to nappies. Even though you are looking for clothes for a boy, it would be economical to go for gender-neutral colors. If you’re planning another child (eventually) it may be a little girl. To save expense, neutral colors can be re-used.
Think of the functionality of clothing. While tiny checked shirts are miniature jeans may be super cute, they are fiddly to put on and off. Onesies are excellent for diaper changing and still, allow your baby to move around freely.

Accessories
