Knot gowns are another popular option for newborn sleepwear.

We love aden + anais Snuggle Knit Knotted Newborn Baby Gown & Hat Set. This incredibly supple and stretchy material is perfect for a newborn. I used this set with my second baby in heather gray, and it was one of those garments I found myself wishing I’d had for my first. The matching hat makes these a perfect gender-neutral and size-neutral giftable set, and the tie bottom makes it easy to adjust as baby grows those first several weeks. I was pleasantly surprised by how much use my baby got out of this gown, and the soft material made it a favorite that I repeatedly washed so that he could wear it as often as possible. Not only are gowns, particularly the aden + anais set, adorable (we used them for our baby’s hospital photoshoot), but the convenience is incomparable.
