Any questions for a mom of a 9 month old?
Hi ladies! I haven't been on here very much since my daughter was born. She happens to be taking a LOONG nap this afternoon, so I thought I'd see if anyone has any questions! I know I had a bunch. I know there are lots of you who are already moms, so I don't mean to step on toes

Re: Any questions for a mom of a 9 month old?
I ask everyone this b/c I know everyone's different:
How long was your LO in newborn sized clothes vs. 0-3 months/3 months size? She's adorable by the way!
Katie was pretty big when she was born... 8lbs, 3oz. She has stayed pretty big..90% on height, 75% or so on weight.
She was in newborn clothes for maybe a month or so, depending on brand (Gerber is useless..Carter's lasted a little longer). After that, she's stuck pretty true to size labels. She's 9.5 months now, and just starting to outgrown her 6-9 month stuff, although she can go ahead and wear a lot of her 9-12 month stuff.
I loved the swing. She was born in October, and actually got a cold when she was just a couple weeks old
Because of the congestion, she slept in her swing in our room for quite awhile.
Besides that, the bouncer! Actually, we had the Graco Bounce N' Swing, where the bouncer hooks on and becomes the swing. I loved that! When she was tiny I would carry her around the house with me all day...into the bathroom to shower, in the kitchen to make dinner, etc.
And a sling for when she was fussy. I just had a Hot Sling, which is pretty basic, but it got the job done. There were several days she would just nap in that.
Oh, and the Miracle Blanket
Loved it!
