Executive Summary by Anne Softling

It is natural to be concerned and worried when your baby is born earlier than normal full-term babies.

Finding preemie baby clothes is not always an easy task. Stacey had given birth to Kasey two months early.



She was concerned about Kasey's size and whether or not she would be able to perform full-term baby natural tasks such as sucking and other body functions that should be automatic.

With the stress already created in the little one's life, Stacey wanted to maintain as normal a life as possible for her child and family.

Along with the opposition that many preemie babies face involving health problems in their lives, making them feel as normal as possible through fashion is a psychological lift to them and their parents. There are many places where you can find and purchase cute preemie baby clothes.

Boosting self-confidence with many designs of preemie baby clothes helps the parents feel good as well as the growing children.

Most preemie-born children will catch up, even though they may have on-going health problems for the rest of their lives. Kasey, who is now thirteen years old is a black belt in karate, a CPR-registered babysitter and an honor roll student.

Preemie Baby Clothes
Executive Summary by Robert Meier

"Preemie" is a term commonly used when referring to a premature baby. Medically speaking, a premature baby is any baby born prior to 37 weeks gestation, with 37 weeks being defined as full term. From the standpoint of baby clothing, the more important distinction is the baby's weight. "Preemie" is often defined as a baby weighing less than 5 ½ pounds. When purchasing baby clothing for small babies, pay close attention to the recommended weights provided by most clothing manufacturers.

Preemie clothing is often hard to come by in traditional stores. Research indicates that preemie clothing is made available by various manufacturers in nearly as extensive a variety of styles and colors as is available for full-term babies. Since many internet-based retailers are marketing to a national (or even international) market, they can often afford to carry a much more extensive line of preemie clothing than can be justified by a local brick-and-mortar store. o Check out the customer services ratings of any internet retailer on independent rating services, such as bizrate.com and shopping.com.

While it is nice to have some well-sized clothing for your preemie, don't go overboard. You will be amazed at how quickly your baby will outgrow clothing made for babies under 8 pounds.
