Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Tall baby?

My 2 month old is 12lbs and 24" long. He is in the 90 percentile on height and is getting too long for his onesies (0-3 month) but the 3-6 month ones are so wide on him he looks kinda funny in them. So the question is, what is a good brand to put them in if they are tall and skinny? I don't like shirts because they ride up, suggestions would be awesome! Thanks!

Re: Tall baby?

  • I'm in the same boat..so I'm up for suggestions too!

    My baby weighed 12 lbs 5 ounces and was 24 inches long at his (exact) 2 month checkup. 

    He still fits into 0-3 Carters stuff. Osh Kosh too. 

    My little man has skinny legs, no butt, and no belly...so the cute jeans I bought him for our apple-picking picture are a no-go. Sad!  He looks like he's about to 'hammer-time".

  • My sister in law suggested onsie extenders when I was having that problem a few weeks ago.

     I never did end up buying them.  I just moved him up a size in the onsies, but thought I'd throw the suggestion out there for you.

  • I got some the the extenders at 7w6d my little man was 13lbs 2oz and 25in long! he is a beast. 

    We use the extenders or just went up a size and roll the sleeves and he wears them baggy. He has been growing so fast (he was under 7lbs at birth) that I know he will fit in them soon.

  • I have the same problem! My DD is 2 months and is 10lbs and 24" long. At least your DS has 2 more lbs on him! LOL The Carter onesies have fit her pretty well in the 3-6 month. Gerber also makes a onesie extender. I saw it at BRU earlier this week.

  • DD is almost 10 weeks and was 12lbs and 23.75in a few days ago ... also in the 90th percentile.  We use the onesie extenders and they work great!!
