I thought 2T was supposed to last longer?!

bim38106 · January 2010

What is the deal?? I don't know if DD just went through a major growth spurt or what, but 2T lasted us all of 2 months. Grrr. Pants are still fine, but I went out and bought her a ton of 2T long sleeved shirts thinking they'd be great through the winter/spring and possibly into summer, since the next size is 3T and no more sizes going by every 3 months.

Not so much. Literally 2 months is all it took for DD to outgrow her 2T shirts. I mean, they still fit, but they're getting tight and most are getting short. I guess it's time to start buying 3T.. how is that possible that my baby is in 3T?!

Anyone else find that DC didn't fit into 2T for long?

She was in 2T for the summer. Now she's in 3T and even growing out of some of that. I can't wait for her to stop growing and for her clothes to start lasting a bit longer!

yeah 2t lasted a few months for us too. he's growing out of 3t already.

he needs a 2t length in pants and a 4t waist!!

I just look at the weight and height guidelines and see which is closest.

My DD also flew through her 2T clothes, she's been in 3T for a while though.

It is ridiculous!!! DD was in 18 months for over a year (I did buy slightly large...) But I bought her 2Ts to get through the winter, and they mostly fit, but everyone got her different sizes for xmas and she can fit into:

2T shirts and pants

3T Shirts, onesies and pajamas

4T one piece outfits and pajamas!

I do NOT get toddler sizes- at all!

2T is a bit large, barely fits my DD right now. But she's always been on the small side, hopefully no major growth spurts... I want her clothes to last a while!

dd is a petite girl... but she was in 2t for a while. in fact, she wore some of the summer clothes in 2t 2 summers in a row. She always outgrows sleeve length before anything else.

My little girl is growing out of 2T too. She has long legs and a skinny waist. The 2T jeans are getting short and the 3T are too long. There needs to be something in between. I do love the jeans with adjustable waistbands though, they keep her pants up. The only place I have found them are Children's place and Target.

i am glad i have a slow grower apparently lol

2T has lasted us over a year.

MrsKellyOrBust · January 2010

2T is still plenty big on Ryan and he's always been in the 75% and up for height and weight- odd!

LoriFalce · January 2010

Ugh. Joseph's in 4T shirts and one-piece stuff. He can wear 3T pants but everything else is 4s.

JerseyGirlRD · January 2010

My DS is turning 2 at the end of January and we basically had to skip right over 2T for shirts and go to 3T because the 2T shirts aren't long enough. Surprisingly the 2T pants seem to fit okay though, he is off the charts for length/height, maybe all his height is in his torso?
