Buy onesies in small numbers, and buy larger, because babies seem to double in weight seemingly overnight. Opt for soft fabrics which feel good next to delicate baby skin. And since tags can irritate baby skin, tagless options are a good choice, too. Because you’ll be doing clothing and diaper changes on the fly, and in the middle of the night, make sure the onesie is easy to put on and take off, which means it should have snaps or zippers, whichever you prefer. And crotch-snaps are essential for easy access to soiled, nasty diapers. Every product on Fatherly is independently selected by our editors, writers, and experts.
