End of Oct/ Early November baby - long sleeve or short sleeve jumpsuits?

Hello,
I had my DS is April so it was fairly simple to know what to dress in him. This time bubba is due end of oct/early nov. My actual due date is 7th Nov, could go late too I suppose? Though last time I had DS 2 weeks early.

What did you dress your bub in around this time? They are still newborn so do they need the long sleeve jumpsuits or short sleeve? I'm guessing by April the colder weather clothes was required. But in the summer months, a short sleeve bodysuit?

Thanks, going to start buying and don't want to waste money with the wrong type pf clothing!!

Oh and one more question, when you found out the sex of your 2nd baby did you get rid of the clothes if it was a different sex or hold on to them? Thanks :)

DD2 was born 14th Nov and she wore a mix. I did buy a lot more short sleeve though and would just use other clothes on top if needed. Just layered basically.

Depends where you are. It can still get a chill in the air early morning/late arvo. Mostly in Brissy I think I did short... but long is always good to have JIC you get those chilly days.

DD1 is October 28th and DD2 is November 20

and we had a mixure of both also! during the day when at home is was short sleeve. During the night long sleeved, as they both never stayed in their wraps!

JJ was a mid-October baby and we are in Melbourne so we still had pretty cool nights and he had quite a few thin cotton long sleeved and legged suits for him to wear when the nights were cool early on. I wouldn't think it would hurt to at least get say 4 -6 of the thin cotton ones to rotate at night if you need them.

Ds was Nov 2... By 3 weeks he was in singlets and short sleeve most days but for the first few weeks i had him in newborn outfits...

it was really hot though in syd and he often sweated if i overdressed him.....

definately only short sleeve if you live in a warmer area.... I wouldnt buy any long sleeve other than newborn and a few cardigans :)

Also bub is a girl and we are holding onto all of ds's stuff just in case she comes out a boy or for the future, as DS's clothes were still in pristine condition and alot of it designer labels etc.... you never know what the future will hold :)

Depends where you are... In Perth, November is well and truly hot, but nights are still mild a lot of the time, so short all the way with the odd longsleeve is what we had for DD1 (nov 19).
If I were still in Melb or somewhere, there would have been waaay more long sleeve things :)

Both, and I'm in Melbourne.
We actually had a heareave towards the end of November and I had to rush to get cooler clothing cos everything I had was long sleeved. You can get lots of mid-high 20s days in nov, or you can get cold...it's unpredictable.
It can't hurt to at least have a couple of short sleeves, you can always layer if it's cold

Eta- I was due 11/11 and had DS1 on 21/11

I'm in Sydney and it would probably be mixed weather, though by Dec it would be very warm. I'm thinking a couple of 0000's just in case long sleeve, 000 & 00 mixed long sleeve and summer and 0 winter clothes. Does that sound about right? Thanks :)

Mum2Romone - I'm thinking what if a boy pops out and they got the ultrasound wrong! I might just pack it all into some bags and put away somewhere just in case. Though part of me was looking forward to clearing out and starting afresh. If anyone has any time I have some pics in my album in my profile, what do you think is it straight forward enough to assume its a girl? My sil said she thought it was bad karma to ditch the clothes, I'm so undecided!

I am in Sydney. DD2 is still pretty much in 0's she still fits 00's even though she is a chubby bub (in the 90th% for weight)I just know that buying the 0's I get more wear out of them.
DD2 slept in cotton jumpsuits at night until about mid dec then but she never liked been wrapped. When it got hot and stayed hot over night she was in short sleeve overnight.

Both, although more short sleeves. We're in Brisbane, baby was born on December 9th, and we still needed long sleeved stuff. And a cardigan.
