Babies: 9 - 12 Months

When did your LO start wearing 12 mo clothes?

DD is 6 months and has fit in 9 month pants the last few weeks, the tops are still a bit big on her. I can't decide which size summer clothes to buy - 9 mo or 12 mo (she'll be 9&10 months old in July&August). Since they're shorts/bloomers I'm thinking 9 mo might last her through most of the summer?

  • He started wearing 12m things around 7 months.

  • Trent is starting to wear 12 months now. Depending on where I am buying things and by "eye-balling" them I am getting 12 or 18 months for summer.
  • Haha mine is not even 6 months and is in 12 months already-- it is a little bit big on him.  He is about 21 lbs and 28 inches (at our 4 month appt).

    I got him 12 month stuff for the late spring/early summer and 18 months for the end of the summer/early fall.

    If I were you, I would buy both... one for the first half of the summer, one for the second half.

  • He's been in 12 mo pants since 6-7 mo due to length but the tops are just now starting to fit.  I find myself buying more separates because of this.  I also tend to buy things big - I'd go with the 12 mo sizes if I were you.
  • About a month ago. I've only bought 12m summer clothes because I think he'll thin out when he starts crawling so I don't htink we'll need 18m until fall. At least I hope not ;)

  • I swear she grew a TON in the last week. Just recently, she has started to fit into 9 and 12 month clothing really well.
  • around 7-8 months.  She is 86th percentile for weight and 95th percentile for height.

    5-6 months - but she's a giant 99th percentile baby. Plus she wears cloth diapers so pants always need to be a bit "roomier" for her booty!

  • we just started our 12 month stuff, but a lot of 9 month stuff and 6-12 mos sizes still fit well. 
  • He started to wear 12 month clothing probably around 6-7 months, 18 month clothing around 8-9 months, 24 month clothing around 10 months and now sitting a combination of 24 and 2T.
  • My DD is over 10 months and wears mostly 6-9 (she can fit some 3-6 dresses), but other clothes are usually too short.

  • We bought him a ton of 12 months stuff right after Thanksgiving, and he was probably wearing them by Christmas. He was ~5.5 months then. They were a little big, but 9 month stuff made him look like a sausage.

  • We bought all 12 month shorts. DD wears mostly 6-9 but the 12mon shorts fit great.

  • DD can wear 9 month tops for a while now but is just starting to fit in 9 mo pants.  We got 12 mo for summer since most of the tops are longer anyways.
  • DD has been wearing 12 mo sizes since 4 mos....she is LONG! She can wearing 18 mo now and isn't even 6 mo old!
  • DS is wearing both 9 and 12 month stuff.  He's been wearing 9 month stuff since 4 months and some 12 month since 6 months. 

    He has really slown down once becoming mobile (he only gained 1 pound in the last couple months).  Before that he was going through sizes super fast.  12 month clothing still has plenty of room and I expect him to wear that size at least through summer if not longer.  He's currently almost 23lbs and he's 30.25 inches.

     

  • Last month he can also still fit into some of his 6/9's depending on the brand.

  • He has been wearing 12 month sleepers since 7.5 months though because he is so long.  And he also wears 12-18 month pants for the same reason.  Shirts and onesies are more 9-12 months, depending on the brand, but he is leaning toward 12 month more now.
