Baby Boys' Pyjamas
Baby boy pyjamas come in two pieces, a top and bottoms, so you can change just the top after a spill, and nappy changes are quicker once he starts to crawl. MINOTI pyjamas for boys run from newborn to 24 months. Choose a lighter set for warm nights and a warmer one for cooler months. For all-in-one sleepsuits and baby grows, see Sleepsuits & Pyjamas.
Go by length rather than age: a 4-month-old usually takes 68 cm. Baby boy short pyjamas suit warm nights, while baby boy fleece pyjamas suit a cold bedroom; keep the room at 16 to 20°C and adjust what goes under the sleeping bag. A baby boy pyjamas multipack gives you a spare set for night-time changes. Pyjamas should fit close to the body, so buy his current size.
Your questions answered
MINOTI sells two-piece baby boy pyjamas with a separate top and bottoms for boys aged newborn to 24 months in centimetre sizes, and a 6-month-old usually takes 74 cm.
What size baby boy pyjamas does a 6-month-old need?
Most 6-month-olds take 74 cm, which covers roughly 6 to 9 months. If your baby is long for his age or between sizes, go up to 80 cm so the pyjamas last longer and still sit comfortably over a nappy.
Should I buy baby boy Christmas pyjamas in a bigger size?
Buy his current size if the pyjamas are mainly for Christmas morning, and one size up if you want them to last into spring. A baby who wears 68 cm in December will often need 74 cm by February.
