Why Choose Organic Cotton Baby Clothes from Aneby?
Comfort and craft come first. Every piece is designed in Shropshire and made from certified organic cotton with no nasty chemicals—soft on delicate newborn and infant skin, easy to care for, and made to last.
We keep colours calm and neutral so outfits mix and match without thought, and our generous fits give room to grow (and space for cloth nappies). Small production runs help us reduce waste and maintain high quality—because thoughtful clothing is kinder to children and the planet.
What to Look For When Shopping for Organic Newborn Baby Clothes?
A simple checklist to make choosing easier:
- Certified organic cotton: Look for clear certification so you know fibres are grown and processed without harsh finishes.
- Soft, breathable fabrics: Natural fibres let skin breathe—especially helpful for newborns who can overheat.
- Gentle construction: Flat seams, soft labels and smooth trims feel kinder against new skin.
- Easy changes: Poppers where you need them, necklines that stretch, and shapes that go on and off without a fuss.
- Neutral, mix-and-match colours: Build a calm capsule so every piece works hard in the wardrobe.
- Room to grow: Slightly generous cuts extend wear time and accommodate cloth nappies comfortably.
- Care that fits real life: Machine-washable pieces that wash well, keep their shape, and are ready to hand down.
Aneby tip: If you’re between sizes, choose the larger and roll cuffs—our proportions are designed to sit neatly even with a little growing room.
How Many Baby Clothes Do I Need for a Newborn?
Every family is different, but a practical starter capsule helps keep washing simple. For the first six to eight weeks, many parents find this mix works:
- 6–8 bodysuits/vests (short or long sleeve, depending on season)
- 4–6 sleepsuits (zip or poppers—choose what you prefer at 3 a.m.)
- 2–3 rompers or dungarees for daytime wear
- 2 soft tops/knit layers for cooler moments
- 2 leggings or soft trousers (cloth-nappy friendly)
- 1–2 lightweight hats/socks as needed
Choose breathable organic layers and you’ll change outfits less often—comfort usually means fewer fusses and fewer complete changes.
How to Choose the Right Size When Shopping Online?
We design with generous, practical fits so your baby can wriggle, stretch and sleep in comfort. To choose well:
- Start with age, then check measurements on each product page (chest, length, and leg).
- Consider nappies: If you use cloth nappies, our cuts allow room—stick to your usual age/height guide.
- Think seasonally: If you’ll be layering bodysuits and a sweatshirt underneath, the next size up may be best.
- Look for adjusters: Dungarees and straps with multiple positions give extra months of wear.
Still unsure? Pick the larger size—cuffs can be turned and the fit will settle quickly.

How Many Baby Clothes Do I Need in Each Size?
Growth spurts come fast. A simple rhythm many families like:
- Newborn / 0–3 months: The capsule above is usually enough.
- 3–6 months: Add 2–3 daytime outfits (rompers/dungarees) and 1 extra knit layer as outings increase.
- 6–12 months: Mobility climbs; add 2 durable bottoms and 2 tops for crawling and play, plus 1 extra outer layer.
Because Aneby pieces are neutral and coordinate easily, a compact wardrobe goes a long way. Our aim is fewer, better garments—worn often, washed well, then handed on.
