How long were your LO's in newborn size?

[BurtonBaby]

I'm curious about this. Erica is almost 6 weeks, and most of her newborn stuff still has lots of room. I've started trying to put 0-3 months on her, but its just so big. I'm really surprised that she is still in them, and over the past couple weeks have bought quite a few more newborn outfits for her. Just wondering if she is gonna suddenly not fit in anything, and if its normal that they all still fit.
=)

I was wondering the same thing, 0-3 month clothes are huge on my little guy.

Rhiannon was out of newborn by the time she was 5 weeks,although she is a long baby, but Liam, my cousin's little boy who was born 7 weeks ahead of Rhiannon was in them untill he was 2.5 months...think it depends on how long you baby is hun, coz Liam is a little shorty yet Rhiannon has these really long legs.. is Erica long in length?

Riley is in 0-3 and has been for a while cause hes really long they would of still fitted him round the tummy lol i reckon by 2 and a half months he will be in 3-6

Depends on baby - It like they grow out of one size and have to grow into the next also depends on clothes ...caitlin was in some 0-3 past 3 months!

 

[foxyroxie]

deffo depends on where u get the clothes from next clothes last for ages ive got some newborn jeans that i didnt want tp put him in when he was newborn cause he was always in romper suits but they fit him no

 

[cheeky_carrie]

yeah every baby is different infact all of my kids have been differnt

1st was in 0-3 till about 6 months but he was prem
2nd was in 3-6 months by about 2 months but he was a big lad
and Ebonii was 3 months on fri and still fits 0-3 months comfortably and some 3-6 but most are bit big she quite long tho so I think thats why

I def have no idea.LOL Noah will be 4 months old and he is just now wearing newborn lol

Mia was 48 cm long when she was born, and she tends to fill out most of her sleepers length wise, but everything is very loose around her.

My mom bought some preemie clothes by mistake and they fit her perfectly!!

I agree.. it depends on the size of the baby/the babies birth weight. Colton was almost 10lbs, and he was wearing 0-3months when he was born. He had 3 newborn outfits, which fit him, but the 0-3 month fit aswell.
His 0-3 month dont fit now, and he is in 3-6 month clothes.
You just have to go by the weight range more. Like 0-3 month clothes were like 8-12lbs and 3-6 months are 12 to like 16/18.. I cant remember.

Anna was 32cm long and weighed 6lbs 1oz at birth. She was in early baby clothes for the first 4 weeks, with some overlap to newborn (depending on where things were baught) - She then outgrew early baby but spent hardly any time in newborn because by the end of week 5 she must have had a growth spurt and while 0-3 month is still baggy on her, newborn is simply just too small...

Alex wore his newborn clothes for about the first 6 weeks, which was longer than i expected him to fit in them for as he was 9lb 1oz when he was born.

That's pretty good going! My mother's baby was 9lbs 7.5oz and never fitted in newborn clothes - went straight into 0-3 months - and it looks like it won't be long before she's in 3-6 months either! I can't believe my mother gave birth to a baby who was so much bigger than mine at the time - who was a month old!

I agree.. thats amazing! Colton was 9lbs 14oz and went straight to 0-3, already in 3-6 too.. and has been since about 5 weeks old.

I had to go out & get him newborn size clothes after we'd had him as i'd been told he would be bigger than he actually was, lol!! He doesn't seem to have been in 0-3 months that long, but has already started to wear some 3-6 month things!!

Oliver was in newborn until he was one month old- I actually remember newborn being too big for him! You wouldnt believe it now! Actually his clothes have last him for as long as the label says! ie he was in 0-3months until he was 3months!x

Don't worry too much. The age sizes are just a guide, dont rely on them too much. Go with the weight. My daughter was born at term and has always been petite. She is now 17 months old and still fits in 6-9 months clothing but moving on 9-12 now.
Dont worry, they are all different but perfect
