Are you not entitled to the kelä box?
If you are, you'll be fine for clothes for the first 3 months.

not exactly...most of those clothes start to fit for a 3 months old, newborn with 50-55 cm get lost in them.
Sarah, check Stockmann, Lindex. Kappahl has nice baby stuff as well.

Have you checked out Sello in Leppavaara, Espoo? There are four shops selling kids' clothes and one shop for toys all together on the same floor.
Also there are many shops of same brand like H&M in the capital region. Their stocks are not always same. You may need to look more.

Hi!
Indeed, it could be a good idea to make a trip to Leppävaara. Check H&M, Lindex, Kappahl and small baby shops in the 1st floor (and Citymarket if you want) and make a 5-10 minute walk to visit a small nice secondhand-shop selling baby and ladies clothes and toys (Zico - Lasten kirppis, Tulkinkuja 1, Leppävaara, Espoo). Sello's H&M also seems to have better selection for small babies than city center's.

I was in Sello last Saturday, and there was an announcement that one of the children´s shops has a big sale, -50% or something like that.
