The Coming-Home Outfit & Organic Swaddle
The first outfit B ever wore was a petal. Yours can be close: breathable, undyed or low-dye, and easy to change at 3 a.m.
PANEL 1
B tries on a cape made of muslin.“Breathable. Super-hero approved.”
PANEL 2
B tries a shiny ‘wrinkle-free’ shirt.“Hmm. Why does it need a finish?”
PANEL 3
B chooses plain cotton.“Simple is stellar.”
Step by step
- Choose GOTS-certified organic cotton or OEKO-TEX Standard 100 fabric for skin-contact pieces.
- Prefer snaps or zips over pullovers; avoid heavy plastisol prints on the chest.
- Swaddle with breathable muslin; keep hips loose (‘hip-healthy’ swaddling).
- Stop swaddling once baby shows signs of rolling, per safe-sleep guidance.
- Pre-wash everything in fragrance-free detergent.
Study glowGOTS covers fiber and processing (restricted dyes/finishes); OEKO-TEX Standard 100 tests the finished item for listed harmful substances — different labels, both useful.
