Did you go up a size?

fyafighterwife86 · February 2014

Just curious.. Did your LO go up a size in clothing bc of the bulkiness of the CD's?

LO is due in May..I've been buying a lot of 3 mo summer clothing but I'm wondering if maybe I should start buying 6 mo if his little hiney is going to be bulkier.

He is measuring right in the 50th% so he should be about an average size NB (whereas DS was 4.11oz and 3 weeks premature).

Nope, never. DD still needed NB sizes until 6-8 weeks, and we've never had to go up in size because of CDs.

ETA: this question was literally asked about 4 threads down....

I had to. I started at 2 months though, so i didn't cd a nb.

My guy is small, 7.5 months and 15 lbs. He can still wear 6 month clothes, but i have him in 9 months because of his booty.

My CD's (OS AIOs) were a little bulky when she was in NB clothes, but she only fit in those for 2 days anyhow. Since then we've had to go up sizes because of her height but never her CDs.

Actually, it's 8 threads. I counted.

My son actually out grew the length in his newborn and three month size sleepers.

Interestingly, I dress my child in clothes that fit her, rather than based on the number on the tag. I actually do the same for myself. I'm crazy like that.

Whatever fits, that's what he wears!

I wear a 2 in some stores and a 4 or 6 in others. Shockingly enough the same goes for my kids. Depends on what it is. Sleepers, onesies, pants, etc.

Threads move. I can go make them right next to each other if you'd like.

They don't move around on me...

You must not have them sorted by most recent.

You have three children, and you are a single-digit size? I'm trying very hard not to hate you right now.

@Mapleme - Yep! I'm a Reese Witherspoon/Hayden Panettiere hybrid. Don't listen if @stoneycakes tries to convince you I'm a 48-year-old, 250 lb. chain-smoker from Arkansas. She's got a mean streak.

In all seriousness, I am short enough that my healthy size would be a 4, but the best I did after I had DS was squeeze into a 6 with serious muffin topage. The pre-bump blump is really wreaking havoc on my self-esteem these days.

@unaveragejane Pre-bump blump is the new black. Totally in this season.

Don't hate the player, hate the game.

No. DD actually just outgrows the clothes in length, I've never had a fit issue due to CD butt (we use prefolds and covers). She's a big baby (born at 9lbs 3oz) and she's gaining weight quickly so she is rapidly moving through clothing sizes. She is transitioning to 3-6 month clothes right now actually.
