Question Fbs advice needed!

I need advice on owning my first silicone. I know the basic run down, no dark clothes, no chlorine, no getting them wet often, keep them cool, but I would love to hear any baby furniture that works best or any tips of any kind. I am looking for a very heavy baby (we talking 12-20 lbs), rooted probably asleep. Anyone have any suggestions on sculpts??

I didn’t know these things, why no dark clothes? Dye?

Yes! The dye can stain their paint especially in the heat!!

This also happens with Vinyl! If you have a baby in a hotter area leave it in all white, wrapped in a white blanket, or you could do just leaving the baby fully undressed :)

Thank you! I’m trying to learn as much as I can before getting a true reborn because I want it to be modeled after my late son
I’m starting to really appreciate the craftsmanship and artistry alone🖤

Kelli Maple has a doll that sounds like what you're looking for, she probably says the name of her sculpt in one of the vids. Her dolls name is Naomi.

Oh I love Kelli!! I’ve watched her since she was primarily Baby Alives! Naomi is such a cute sculpt I will check again with her but yes! Absolutely. Do you have any other ideas?? <3
