[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you wan to dress your child you should be able to do so. Why does your wife decide what the baby wears?

Many people dress their babies in clothes, it is normal. If there is an outfit you like or end any to wear (maybe gift giver is visiting), put it on baby.

Is your wife controlling in other ways?[/quote]

Not usually she’s just very particular about how things are done with him.

She thinks that he doesn’t nurse as well in the outfits with pants because the waistband is too tight on his stomach.  It’s not.  It fits fine and he doesn’t seem uncomfortable I’m concerned it’s new mom anxiety on a whole new level. [/quote]

Is she usually anxious? How old is the baby? If she starts to get anxious about regular everyday things or starts to try to control you and the environment, that is definitely worth a talk with the doctor.[/quote]

3.5 weeks.   I will keep that in mind to bring up at 6 weeks Appointment [/quote]

For heavens sake.  3.5 weeks.

My kids lived in baby gowns for the first month. Open at the bottom was easiest for changing so that’s what we did. With a swaddle most of the day. 
Worry about what is easy and comfortable, not what present gets used.

If you bring this up at the check up I hope your wife and the doctor both laugh at you.

+1 I think OP is the controlling one. At that age we baby was always swaddled arms in, no one would see outfits.

I thought this was a baby who was a couple months old.[/quote]
