Fall Baby
31
items Fall things I love for NICU babies, babies at home, and the moms doing the impossible. Soft layers, preemie-friendly outfits, board books, and a few things that are just for her. The standing rules stay: the bedside team decides on clothing, each pro...
Autumn leaves without a one-day-only costume: I would keep this zip-up in rotation all season. It is 100% GOTS organic cotton, with a two-way zipper and chin tab; preemie and newborn sizes have built-in footies and mitten cuffs. Sizes run to 9 months...
Baby Organic Cotton Sleep & Play Pajamas in Autumn Leaves Print - Little Planet
A pumpkin-patch picture does not need a whole costume. I like this USA-made certified-organic-cotton bodysuit with water-based inks and nickel-free snaps. Sizes go from 0-3 to 18-24 months; the brand says size up if between sizes. Add a warm layer ou...
Pumpkin Organic Baby Bodysuit
Apples, acorns, little hats: I would let baby help look under the flaps while we read about fall. It has 14 board pages and is listed for ages 1-4, though it can be a lap read earlier. Watch the flaps with small hands; retire any piece that tears loo...
Baby Loves Fall!
Leaves and wind are plenty of excitement in this quiet little fall book. I would read its 20 board pages together on a slow afternoon. It is listed for ages 1-3; check the edges if baby turns it into a chew toy.
Autumn Babies
I like the friendly faces hiding behind the flaps in this pumpkin hunt, without anything spooky. It has 14 board pages and is listed for ages 1-4, so I would save independent flap play for an older baby and read together now. Supervise, and remove to...
Where Is Baby's Pumpkin?
The different textures on this little pumpkin might be fun for hands and mouths once baby is ready. Nuby rates it 3 months and up and says it is dishwasher-safe. Follow the age guidance, check the silicone before each use, and toss it if it tears.
Silicone Pumpkin Teether
Four tiny friends hide inside this soft pumpkin, ready to crinkle, rattle, and squeak. The maker says from birth, though putting them in and pulling them out may be more fun around 6-9 months. Keep it to awake, supervised play, check the seams, and l...
Halloween Stuffed Pumpkin Playset with 4-Count Sensory Toys
This little woodland moth has crinkly wings, a mirror, a rattle, and a wood teether, with a loop for a stroller or play gym. Manhattan Toy says newborn and up. I would hang it where baby can breathe and reach freely, check the wood and seams, and kee...
Folklore Luna
On a chilly walk, a zip-up layer that covers both of us sounds much easier than adjusting two jackets. The removable baby cover comes in two sizes for birth through the first year; check both the baby and adult size charts. This is outerwear, not a c...
Babywearing Zip-Up Hoodie
The branch print can stay out well past October, which I like for a fall blanket. This reversible 30x40 blanket has an organic cotton jersey cover and light poly fill. I would use it for supervised tummy time or a stroller walk, not unsupervised slee...
Swaying Branches Organic Cotton Reversible Baby Blanket - Oat
A rust-colored Gobble bodysuit feels like a sweet first-Thanksgiving outfit without a complicated costume. It is USA-made organic cotton with lap shoulders and nickel-free snaps. Sizes start at 0-3 months, not preemie; check the weight-and-height cha...
Gobble Organic Bodysuit Long Sleeve
Little Bunny and friends find falling leaves, mushrooms, and pumpkins as they get ready for winter. I would bring this gentle 24-page board book out for a cozy read even in the newborn days; it is listed for ages 0-3. Check the binding if it becomes ...
Little Bunny, Fall Is Here!
For the pumpkin-patch photo without wrestling a costume onto baby, I like this soft USA-made organic-cotton bodysuit: lap shoulders, nickel-free snaps, and sizes 0-3 to 18-24 months. It is sized for term babies rather than preemies, so check the bran...
Pumpkin Patch Organic Bodysuit Long Sleeve
I would read the little rhymes aloud and point out squirrels, foxes, and bunnies as summer turns to fall. This sturdy 6-inch board book is made for repeat readings; if baby starts chewing it, check the pages and binding often.
Autumn Leaves Fall Board Book
The lift-the-flap search for a cuddly turkey feels like a sweet first Thanksgiving read for an older baby or NICU graduate at home. Karen Katz’s follow-up to Where Is Baby’s Pumpkin? is listed for ages 1-4. Watch flap play and remove any piece that t...
Where Is Baby's Turkey?
A squirrel, one falling leaf, and a lot of quiet charm. I would pull this out on a slow October afternoon; the board pages hold up to grabbing hands. It is listed for preschool ages, but as a lap read it works much earlier. Once baby starts chewing, ...
In the Middle of Fall - Board Book
Tiny acorns on hand-knit baby alpaca booties, made by a small fair-trade shop. I would gift these with a fall book for a September or October baby. Sizes run newborn to 1-2 years and each pair is made to order, so allow a little extra time. Booties c...
Acorn Booties in Wheat - OliviMilly
A little knit pumpkin hat for those first crisp walks and fall photos. I like the earflaps and the handmade look. Check the head size and sizing notes on the shop page, and take it off when baby is asleep.

Baby Fall Leaves Sweatshirt and Jogger Set - Cloud Island
A little pumpkin peekaboo for the stretch between the patch and bedtime. I'd read the rhymes aloud and work the sliders myself for a younger baby. Target lists ages 2-5, so save independent slider play for later and check the pages for loose pieces.
