Anyone want to help? I'm willing to splurge because it will be such a special day and I'll keep it forever. He'll be somewhere in the 6 pound range when he goes home...hopefully in a week or two.

OMG!!! Congratulations!!!! My favorite preemie brands are Kissy Kissy, Carters and Little Me. Nordstroms has Little Me in preemie size and of course Carters stores carry the preemie size. I ordered Kissy Kissy from a preemie store I found online. I'm SO EXCITED for you!!!

@aprk: Yay, an actual pic!
I guess I have a shopping day ahead of me. We have a Janie and Jack and of course Nordstroms nearby. Thanks for the brand suggestions. I haven't bought him anything anywhere except for Target! Keep the suggestions coming if you have them and I'll make sure to post a pic when I find something.
(He wears newborn clothes...he's too long for preemie!)

@Mrs Green Grass: I don't have any ideas but I wanted to say CONGRATS! I'm so happy to hear that he can finally go home.

Such amazing news!!!
Janie and jack. Their stuff runs big - preemie is more like true newborn (up to 8 lbs).

Big Congrats! So glad he's coming home soon.
I love hand knit sweaters with a onsie underneath, there's some cute ones on etsy some with matching hats and booties.

@Mrs Green Grass: what kind of weather situatuion are we looking at?

Our little girl came home at 4lbs 11 oz, we found that Carter's and Love'd Baby brands run small enough to fit her. Gap seems huge, she still wears newborn Gap at over 10 lbs.

@prettylizy: Cold for San Diego? : ) Daytime probably around 60.
Just so everyone is clear - we do not have a confirmation of going home yet. We are just getting close. Sooo close.
GOLD / squash / 13576 posts
@Mrs Green Grass: In that case, Janie and Jack has a size called preemie but its really newborn.
GOLD / papaya / 10206 posts
Okay, I kind of love this outift from Janie and Jack. It is completely NOT practical though, layers and stuff like that! lol!
GOLD / papaya / 10206 posts
Or what about a tiny gradutaion cap and gown to celebrate his graduation from the NICU to coming home?

Just saw this thread. I have nothing to add other than a huge congrats. I know he isn't cleared to come home quite yet, but this is *huge* that he has made it this far so quickly, and you are actually to the point of planning his going home day. Congrats mama!

@prettylizy: One of the nurses will make one sometimes! We'll see if she does for Dylan.

If you like something more modern I LOVE LOVE LOVE Little Hip Squeaks on etsy. She makes newborn leggings and hats and I'm sure she'd love to make a custom newborn outfit.
