FAQs

Is this bodysuit suitable for newborns?

Yes, the soft merino wool and silk blend is gentle on newborn skin. Ensure you select the appropriate size for a newborn.

How does merino wool keep my baby comfortable?

Merino wool is naturally thermoregulating, meaning it helps to maintain a stable body temperature. It keeps babies warm in cooler conditions and cool in warmer conditions by wicking away moisture.

Can I use a regular washing detergent?

No, it is highly recommended to use a detergent specifically designed for wool or silk. Regular detergents can strip the natural oils from the wool and damage the fibers.

What is the benefit of the silk blend?

The silk blend enhances the softness and luxurious feel of the bodysuit, making it even more gentle and comfortable against delicate skin.

How often should I wash this bodysuit?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and can often be aired out between wears. Wash only when necessary, following the care instructions to preserve the fibers.

Will this bodysuit restrict my baby's movement?

No, the bodysuit is designed with a close but comfortable and flexible fit to allow for unrestricted movement during play and sleep.

What sizes are available?

This specific product is available in size 6-9 months. Please check other listings for different size options.

Troubleshooting

Bodysuit feels rough after washing

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and the correct wool wash cycle on your machine. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can damage the delicate fibers.

Poppers are difficult to fasten or unfasten

Check for any threads or fabric caught in the poppers. Ensure they are aligned correctly before fastening. If persistently stiff, they may loosen slightly with gentle use.

Bodysuit has lost its shape

Reshape the garment gently while damp and lay it flat to dry. Avoid wringing or stretching the fabric excessively.

Baby seems too warm or too cold

Adjust the number of layers over the bodysuit based on the ambient temperature and your baby's activity level. Merino wool is thermoregulating, but external layers play a key role.

Care Instructions: To maintain the quality and longevity of the merino wool and silk blend:

  2. Detergent: Avoid detergents containing bleach or optical brighteners.
  3. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
  4. Ironing: Iron on a low heat setting if necessary, preferably on the reverse side.
  5. Pilling: Natural fibers like merino wool may experience minor pilling over time, which is normal and can be managed with a fabric shaver if desired.
