Clothing/diapers sizes

thetwinkies&Vivi · August 2012

Went through DD's clothes today and trying to decide if/what I need to add to. I realize it all varies,but humor me with some details?

1)How far along did you deliver at and what were their weights?

2) What size diapers and clothes did they wear at birth?

3)How long did they stay in that original size and when did they move to either NB or 0-3?

Thanks ladies.

1)How far along did you deliver at and what were their weights? 37w6d. 6lbs10oz and 6lbs7oz. (They did each lose 7 oz in the hospital so they were 6.3 and 6.0 when we brought them home.)

2) What size diapers and clothes did they wear at birth? NB diapers (though someone gave us a pack of preemie and those fit the first week or two, too). And with clothes, the Gerber NB fit but other NB were honestly huge on them, which I did not expect since NB is supposedly for 5-8 lbs and they were well within that range. Their little arms would fall right out of the sleeves of the NB sleepers and stuff we had; they ended up wearing a mix of Preemie and Newborn the first 3 weeks.

3) How long did they stay in that original size and when did they move to either NB or 0-3? They wore NB until they were maybe 6 weeks old and then I moved them into 0-3m, and from then on their size pretty much matched their age (until they were in the 18-24m range and their growth really slowed down).

1How far along did you deliver at and what were their weights?

37 weeks 1 day, 6lb 2oz and 5lb 4oz.

2 What size diapers and clothes did they wear at birth?

They wore newborn size of both we just switched them to size 1 diapers around 910 weeks.

3How long did they stay in that original size and when did they move to either NB or 03?

Ours are 11 weeks and the majority of the clothes they wear are still NB sized. We are just starting to wear some of the 03 size.

1. 29w4d, 2lbs13oz and 3lbs3oz. Once they could wear clothing they were in preemie size until around their EDD. Newborn size lasted about three weeks and now we're in 0-3. I think within the next month they'll move up again. Diapers went pretty much accordingly.

my babies were born at 34 weeks 6 days weighing 6 lbs 2 oz and 5 lbs 7 oz. we put them in newborn clothes since that's all we had. they were swimming in them, but i didn't want to go out and buy preemie clothes because i knew they'd grow out of them so quickly. they moved into 0-3/3 months when they were around 6 weeks old. pretty much the same deal with diapers.

1)How far along did you deliver at and what were their weights?

37w3d 5.10 and 6.2

2) What size diapers and clothes did they wear at birth?

P diapers (about 2 weeks) and NB clothing

We got the P Diapers because the NB size was just a bit too big in the waist. My guys have always been tall but skinny

3)How long did they stay in that original size and when did they move to either NB or 0-3?

NB size was maybe a month.

0-3 was maybe 2 weeks beyond that.

1) 28w, 2lbs & 2lbs 7oz

2) Micropreemie diapers (just about the tiniest cutest doll sized things you've ever seen btw!) no clothes until they were about a month old. Preemie size which they grew into quickly.

3) Came home with preemie size and NB size diapers (there is hardly any difference). The preemie clothes were pretty much too small and short by the time they reached their due date. They wore mostly Gerber and Carter's (because they run small) NB onesies. They fit NB size for a long time, about 3 more months. Most of my stuff was either NB or 3 month, we didn't have much 0-3.
