What size clothes did your babies wear when they first were born?

LO wore tiny baby clothes when first born at 7lbs 4oz

 

My daughter was in tiny baby or early baby for a good 6wks. My son was in first size or upto 1 month in next for about a month then inti newborn.

 

My lo was born 7lbs6oz and was in newborn for eight weeks.

 

0-3 is huge. Definitely buy newborn unless youre expecting a 9.5lb+ baby.

 

My son was 6lb 12oz and 20.5 inches long but was born at 36 weeks and wore preemie sleepers for a while before newborn fit properly .

Just get newborn it should fit

 

My DD was 7lb 10oz and I bought so much 0-3 thinking she would be big, it drowned her! Definatly new born, they fit perfectly! X

 

I'd wash a few things and keep tags on the rest! My nieces and nephews never even fit into newborn clothes. My baby is likely to be pretty big due to GD, so I only have a couple newborn outfits. I figure I can get more if I need them, but once tags are off and they're washed, I can't return them.

 

Very helpful thread!! I'll have to check her going home outfit to make sure it's for newborns since I thought newborn = 0-3 and I'm not sure which one I bought lol

 

Dd was 7lb12 and I out her straight into newborn, although they did seem a little big right at the start. I will be getting new born stuff this time

 

Anyone have a 5lb and what size would suit? Would tiny baby work? We are hoping to get to 36weeks but my cervix dropped again.

 

My DS wore up to 1month sleepsuits for the first 2-5days then after wore 0-3months his birth weight was 8lbs 10oz...x

(newborn size could get on him but such a tight fit it was like more then exact! Lol)

 

My daughter was 6lbs 12 but was in tiny baby/early baby clothes for over a month. Newborn and first size swamped her and she wasn't in 0-3 for ages and ages!

My son was 7lbs 7 and newborn and first size clothes only lasted him about 3 weeks and then he was in 0-3.

 

Newborn/First Size for 5 weeks. She was 8lb 7oz.

 

My Lo was 6lb 13 and wore newborn for a good while. There seems to be a huge jump from newborn to 0-3

 

Had same question Thanks for asking

 

My daughter fit into newborn stuff for about 3-4 weeks then moved onto 0-3 months. I bought far to many nice newborn stuff last time and regretted it I've ended up only buying 7 newborn sleepsuits, 7 long sleeved vests and the rest are all 0-3 and 3-6 months this time round
