    @oheliza44 Clothes from different companies size nb a little different, but my son was 8lbs12oz and fit into his nb clothes, not for very long but it fit comfortably for a couple wears. As far as 10lb+ babies, I'm not to sure lol. 
  • @oheliza44 - So cute!!! I have no good advice but I'd rather things be bigger than smaller, so I would probably go with the bigger size (unless it's an option to buy both and return one - but then you have to buy 4 outfits since you have a boy and girl option). 

    I also love yours @xath! I love the socks. 

  • @oheliza44 my first was 9 lbs 11 oz and she fit in a newborn footie to come home... but it was snug lol. I think you're ok with newborn as long as you weren't planning on using it for long.

    @oheliza44 both of my kids wore their nb size clothes for about 5-6 weeks. DS was 8.7 so at least around 10 by the time he switched to the 0-3 mo. I would def stick with NB bc they swim in 0-3 at first. I have found target, children's place, old navy, and gap run small in general. Carters runs pretty true overall. HTH! 

    LO will wear DD coming home outfit that I saved
  • This is the outfit I'm ordering this weekend! https://www.etsy.com/listing/476337803/happy-camperboys-outfitorganic?

    i love them all! i'm still looking for 1 for my baby boy so it's good to be able to get inspired by your choices. I will go with a footie or a comfy sleep suit though.

    @Xath i'm thinking of getting a t shirt for my daughter too! love your outfits.

  • @dancegurl1118 I love the burts bees baby stuff - I actually almost bought that girl outfit last time I was at target!

  • @rae1-3 it's so cute. DD wore a lot of the newborn stuff that was gender neutral last go-round. That and the new Aden & Anais muslin outfits have me tempted to spend a crap ton. But alas...I will hold off. A lot of the BB stuff is now on super sale on the website!

    +1 on burts bees especially if baby has sensitive skin.  Not a lot of color options but soft and wears well if you like a more muted style.  The fit is good for long chunky babies too.  @dancegurl1118 thanks for the tip about the sale. We just had stuff delivered (grrrrr) but will definitely pick out more for a good price!

    Last time I had painstakingly picked out the most adorable pink onesie for DD, but it was too small! Oh, well. This time I will bring a range of sizes- I might even treat myself to a new set of yoga pants for coming home! Why not, right?

    @Xath So cute! You've inspired me to think about getting DD a new "big sister"outfit as well. 
  • @DarkSerendipity where did you get that shirt? Lolol I'm loving it

  • @manillabar From Zulily! I saw it and I knew I had to be THAT kind of mom to bring my little bellyburster home in that. XD

  • I have no outfit prepared for the LO.  But I love seeing these adorable outfits!!!  Also, thank you @Xath for reminding me to get something for my older kids too.

    Aw, thanks @ginger1228  @mars8k @clio and @notachanski

    Yeah, it's really important to me to make my boys feel like this is an exciting time for all of us, and not just all about the baby.  We're going to go through a bunch of massive changes this summer and so I'll probably go a bit overboard with spoiling them where I can.

     @RubyRedPirate Paisley Prints Spokane! I have bought a lot of outfits from her and they hold up really well. Her pants are the best!
  • @oheliza44 my DS was 9lb5oz at birth and could still wear newborn for a few weeks :)

  • I'm still undecided, but I liked this one so much that I bought it 3 times! Originally in 0-3, then accidentally twice in NB!


    I also got this set, which matches the first thing we bought for the baby - a little blanket that we got in New Orleans, not realizing it was a common brand!


    I have two of that whale outfit, but in different sizes so I'm totally keeping both (and contemplating the smaller one as a going home outfit.)

    @yellow1daisy -- I am not one to get excited for baby clothes, but I LOVE that mushroom outfit. It is SO fun!!!
  • Ohhhhh, I love all the outfits!!!! We brought son home in a Kissy Kissy 'under the sea' footie onesie....I would tag a pic but it's packed up still! Ops! It was bright white with lots of little sea animals on it. For this little girl I have so many cute outfits to pic from but most likely won't buy anything special. I have a few Kickee Pants outfits I might use, or the same Kissy Kissy 'under the sea' because it was so sweet before! I didn't do any special poses or anything but have car seat pictures and a picture of each of us holding him, non together(SO SAD)! 

    But after seeing this I need to get big brother an outfit. I'm not big on words on clothing, so I probably won't buy something that says 'Big Bro' directly on it. I'm undecided. It would be cute for the pics tho! LOL
