Gerber Onesies

I have a lot of 0-3 onesies and the gerber ones look really small compared to the other brands I have.  Do you think I should get some newborn onesies too?

    I heard the Gerber onsies shrink really bad once washed.

    When I washed the gerber 0-3 onesies they shrunk. I bought a pack of newborn ones, and they shrunk too. I'm waiting before I buy anymore till I know what fits.

    Gerber runs very small. DS grew out of them very quickly. If you do get newborn, I would not get gerber newborn. ?The gerber 0-3 compare to other newborn sizes. ?We never used any newborn clothes at all, but DS was born almost 9lbs. At six months, he is fitting into the 12 mo gerber, and they are tight.

    Just a recommendation... from my experience DS has always fit into the next size up in Gerber onsies... ie. Right now he wears 18 month clothes and fits into 24 month onsies, not the 18 month ones.

    That's what I'm hoping.  Using those as newborn and not having to buy anymore.

    yeah you will be able to use them as NB. I did they are the same size as NB in other brands.

    IMO, Gerber runs "true to size" (so 0-3M may actually fit a newborn that is normal sized). Carter's, Ralph Lauren, Gap, and especially Tommy infant clothing runs a little bigger. :
