Once you give birth, do they let you dress your baby? Or not till they come home?

I was just curious, because I'm 30 weeks, almost 31 and I want to be able to put a sleeper on my baby, and I'm slowly packing the bag. Is it gonna be pointless to even pack it? Lol.

    No, go ahead! They have onesie there for you just in case you need it but if you want you can bring your own.

    Yes you can dress you baby

    Yay! (: Are there particular things that the baby can't wear? Since the little clamp will be on her belly button still?

    The hospital is usually kept pretty warm. They gave me long sleeve button front shirts for my daughter then I just swaddled her. I dressed her before we went home.

    The hospital im going 2 they dont even take ur baby out the room anymore. Only 4 the hearing and other tests. They told me that cause when parents go home they call and ask ?s all the time cause they were taking ur baby 4 the first night and parents didnt get use 2 having the baby full time.

    @mz_sanders - them taking my baby would drive me insane! I would have said no way in he$$!!! Lol...
    @kaylarose07 - mine dressed ours in a long-sleeved onsie & a hat & I used their swaddling blankets because they were bigger than mine & it was horribly cold in our room & all I had brought was short-sleeved onsies! But no, you don't have any restrictions on what can go over the umbilical cord stump. It has no feeling in it & most baby clothes are perfectly soft enough not to irritate it. :)
