Slow down- you're growing too fast!

I know all our babies are growing, it's heartbreaking seeing her newborn clothes are getting too small, but encouraging that BF is working and she continues to grow! Bittersweet for us a all!

Re: Slow down- you're growing too fast!

  • I'm with @devynnmarie. Mason was 10lbs 7ozs at birth do he never fit into newborn clothes and alot of the 0-3 months never got worn either. Depending on the outfit we're now in 3-6 or 6-9 month outfits. People are always shocked when I say he's just a month old.

  • LO hit 11 lbs yesterday!  He is in 3-6 month clothing- he never did fit into his NB clothes.  DD was 6lb 6 oz when she was born and he is already as big as she was at nearly 3 months .... and he is our last LO.  I want him to thrive and gain weight but I want my tiny baby for a little bit longer :)
  • When she turned one month on Monday I said to my H, 'We're never going to have a baby under 1 month old again.' :(( She has her one month check up today and I wouldn't be surprised if she's gained 3-4 pounds since birth. She's the size DD1 was at 4ish months. I love her little baby rolls but it does make me sad how fast she's growing.

  • My little tank was just under 10lbs at birth and 7 weeks later we are just shy of 14! I too get upset when people say he looks 4 months old. :( I want him to be little for a little longer :(
  • 0-3 fits perfectly, so in a few short weeks she won't fit in that either. She's over 11lbs now. It makes me sad to see how quick she's growing. I bought newborn CDs that were only worn for a few weeks.

    Same here! DS was 10lbs 5oz at birth so we never touched the newborn clothes and 0-3m for about a week. He is currently in 3 - 6m at 3 weeks.
  • Mine is still small but just not tiny anymore!

    I'm in the same boat. Owen was 10lbs 2oz. He never even wore newborn diapers. He's 7 weeks today and is wearing 3-6 month and some 6-9 month clothing as well as size 2 diapers. They seriously grow way too fast.
  • My babe was 6lbs 11oz at birth and was in NB clothes for quit a while. After his one month appointment I ditched all the newborn clothes (bittersweet moment!)
    Now at 6 weeks and a couple of days, he weighs 9lbs 9oz.

    This! DS started at 3 lb 8 oz and at his 2 month appointment he was 7 lb 14 oz. We are thrilled to finally be in newborn sizes:) It's hard to believe how much & how quickly he has grown. I swear, sometimes I can see a difference between morning and afternoon in his size!
  • Ugh! My son never even fit his newborn :( he's currently 6 weeks and in 3-6 month clothing! It break my heart when people ask of he's about 3/4 months old!

    Like no! Please stop aging my little peanut. I want him to stay so little forever.

    This is us, exactly. He was 9 lb 6 oz at birth and he's over 13 now. People say he looks like he's about 4 months old. It's really amazing how much they change each day.

  • I'm finally starting to put away my LO's newborn clothes at 2 months old today! I'm happy is is growing so well but it is sad that he is growing so fast! He was 5 lbs 14 oz at birth and dropped to 5 lbs 4 oz! He is now 9 lb 9 oz! I remember when he was drowning in his newborn clothes and wore preemie diapers!
  • I packed up LOs newborn clothes last week, he is on 0-3 now which is great cause he has a million outfits! I just hope he gets to wear them all before he's in 3-6!
  • Adding: took DD to her 1 month appointment today. She weighed 11lbs 5oz. She'll be 5 weeks tomorrow and was born at 7lbs 3oz. She's gained more than 4lbs since birth. Slow down baby!!!

  • If mine keeps growing at this rate, I feel like next week we'll be going to get his drivers license. It really is sad. :-(
