Many friends told me that only uses the newborn clothes less than 1 month. How many clothes I need to buy for a newborn baby?, which clothes is necessary to buy?

    My LO skipped right over newborn clothes so I would highly recommend not getting very much if any cause you will probably get it as gifts. But that being said I would say 4-5 outs it's and 3 pjs that way you have a couple extra if they get dirtied. Also there was a couple times we had to change pjs in the middle of the night because out little boy peed all over: hope that helps.

    We didn't buy any newborn clothes. We had my MIL run to target the day we got home for 4 onesies and one sleep and play. LO fit in those for 3 weeks maybe, some babies don't fit into newborn clothes at all. I wouldn't waste money on them.

    This is my third baby and my two older kids were in newborn sizes for about 6 weeks. Newborn clothes are necessary for my babies. They swim in 0-3.

    We didn't buy any nb clothes for our first and ended up going out immediately to buy some....she wore them until 3 months. This time around we got some nb stuff and our son was only in them for 3 weeks...it just depends on the baby, if you live close enough to a store I say don't get much in case they are wasted when you can always go pick a few things up if you need them.

    If you do a registry at target they are great about you returning things. Even if they are items you didn't register for. So I would say buy some leave the tags on and you can return them if they don't fit

    Keep the tags on until you know you will use them.  My LO was 9lbs. Only wore NB sleepers a couple times. 0-3 fit better.

    My lo was 6lbs, 12 oz.  She's swimming in her nb stuff, I had to buy more though, and even got some preemie hand me downs from my neighbour.  Depends on baby.  Have a few things washed/on hand and be ready to get more if necessary!

    My LO was 7.9lbs and fit in newborn clothes until he was 3 weeks old. He was almost 10lbs by then and was into 0-month and 3 month clothes.

    My LO is 3 weeks and is still in Newborn clothes and diapers, her birth weight was 7 lbs 12 oz, 0-3 month clothing slides off her shoulders. I bought all my newborn clothing second hand from a mommy swap page on Facebook thinking I would only need them in case and didn't want to spend too much on them if she'd skip right over them like I heard. The lot came with 7 onesies, a few pants, and 10 sleepers which has been perfect but we also live in an apartment with out our own washer dryer so it extends time between loads. I would say half of that would be fine if you have your own washer dryer.
