Premature and dysmature babies have one thing in common: they need extra help with temperature regulation. As a neonatal nurse, I explain the difference between the two groups, why warmth is so crucial for their development, and how merino wool and layering can help. This includes scientific evidence and practical tips for a safe, warm start.

As a parent, you want your baby to be safe and comfortable. Choosing the right baby clothes plays a major role in this. Soft and breathable materials such as cotton and merino wool, practical closures and avoiding irritating labels ensure optimum wearing comfort. Washing new clothes is also important to prevent skin irritations. Recent research also shows that cheap baby clothes, such as those from Shein, can contain dangerous substances. Therefore, consciously choose safe, high-quality baby clothes such as rompers, newborn slippers and toddler clothes that are made with your child's well-being in mind.
