Soft Cotton Inside and Out
The pramsuit has a star print cotton outer and a soft cotton lining, so only cotton sits against your baby's skin. A light layer of padding between the two adds warmth without the bulk of a heavy snowsuit.

When to Use a Pramsuit
A pramsuit is made for outdoors, so it is one for the journey home and the weeks after rather than for the NICU, where babies are kept warm by their incubator or cot. Take it off once you are indoors, as babies should not sleep in hoods or outdoor layers. For car journeys, take padded layers off before fastening the car seat harness and tuck a blanket over the straps instead, so the harness can sit snugly.

Choosing the Right Size
Available in 5-8 lb. Choose by your baby's current weight rather than their age. A pramsuit with a little room is easier to dress and lasts longer as your baby grows.
