Frequently Asked Questions about Baby Bodysuits

Why do babies wear bodysuits?

Babies wear bodysuits because they are comfortable, versatile and practical garments that provide easy diaper access, minimise skin irritation and allow for freedom of movement. In Malaysia's tropical climate, bodysuits serve as a convenient base layer, adapting to various weather conditions. During rainy days, they help keep babies warm and cosy. On sunny days, lightweight bodysuits keep babies cool and comfortable, ensuring they feel at ease as they explore their surroundings.

What's the difference between a baby onesie and a bodysuit?

A baby onesie is a loose-fitting, one-piece garment that covers the baby's entire body, including the arms and legs. A bodysuit, on the other hand, is a more fitted one-piece garment that covers the baby's torso and fastens between the legs, typically with short or no sleeves. A baby onesie can also be referred to as a baby sleepsuit.

Do babies need bodysuits under sleepsuits?

While it is not always necessary for babies to wear bodysuits under sleepsuits, it can provide an extra layer of warmth and comfort, especially during colder nights or when they’re in air-conditioned environments. The choice to layer a bodysuit under a sleepsuit depends on your baby's needs, the room temperature and your baby's preferred level of comfort. Alternatively, you can dress bub in baby pyjamas over their short or long-sleeve bodysuit for extra protection. Outerwear, such as a baby sweater, is also a popular option to consider.
