3 mo. old in 6 month clothes!

I can't believe how big he's gotten! I don't know how much he weighs but its getting hard to maneuver him around. If I had to guess I'd say close to 20lbs. He's so squirmy and strong that I really have to be super careful when I carry him because it feels like he could just jump out of my arms! I'm small, like 5'2 and petite so I don't know how I'm going to handle this big boy when he gets to be older! When we had to bust out the 6 month clothes it was quite a shock. The pants are even a little to snug around the waist. I'm going to go look in my Art of Breastfeeding book about chubby breastfed babies. I know they say its perfectly fine but I can't remember what else they say about it. Whenever I go out in public, I get a lot of, good greif that baby is bigger than you are! How old is he? 3 months?! He's HUGE!

My 5 month old wears 9, 12, and even some 18 month clothes depending on the brand!  She's a healthy 19 1/2 lbs and she's happy as a clam.  Who cares what size she's wearing if they've been to the doc and are healthy?!

Yay for big babies!!!

Mrs. PreK do you teach PreK? I'm a former K teacher.

DS is in 6 month clothing as well.  He'll be 3 months old next week. I'm not sure how much he weighs now... but he was 15 bls at 7 weeks (that was 5 weeks ago!)

Big chubby boys are awesome

Spider Pig has been in 6 mo clothes for a couple of weeks now and is wearing some 6-9 mo.

Get this: His baptism outfit is 12 mo.  Baptism is on Saturday. (I think they run small anyhow.)

We should start a big baby club!  I also have a big boy.  He's 17lbs at 3 months and wears 6-9 month clothes.

Yeah for big guys! DS was over 16 lbs (and 25 inches) at his 2 month checkup. We're also in 6 month clothing. He is also a BF baby and my Dr says it's great! I think it will even out over time, but generally we're just going to have big, healthy guys. I'm all for starting a big boys club!

We have a big baby too, she's in 6 month clothing and I'm already stocking up on 9 month for later this Fall/Winter.  It's not really that she's "fat", she's just a big, healthy baby.  We'd much rather her be bigger than frail and sickly, so we see it as a blessing.

Yay for the big boy club!!  DS has to be close to 16 lbs.  We've been putting DS in 6 months for a while now.  He has officially grown out of his 3 months clothes.  I was at Children's Place yesterday stocking up for next year at their awesome clearance sale and I was buying 18 and 24 months clothes for next summer...better too big than too small.

This kid is gonna eat me out of my house when he is older!!

He's so cute!

My DD has been in 6mo. clothes for a while now. Went in for her 4mo. yesterday and she's 14.14; 25.5in.

She can still wear 3mo. onsies and tops but her legs are so long that 6 mo or 6-9mo stuff fits!
