newborn clothes?

How much did your baby weigh at birth (if already a mother) and did they fit newborn or 0-3months? My baby is already estimated 8lbs6ozs and I still have a week to go! Lol

My daughter was 9lbs 11oz. I had newborn outfits to bring her home but she didn't fit in any of those so she wore 0-3 months clothes for about 3 weeks then it was 3m and 3-6m clothes:)

Always buy some premie clothes.... They estimated my daughter at 9 lbs and she was only 6.12... She didn't fit into 0-3 months for a good 3 months.... It's good to have just incase

My babies were 7lb 9oz & 6lb 14oz, they weren't too big but they were both 21in long.  So newborn lasted maybe a wk or two, a complete waste really but loved the outfits!  This time around I will buy 0-3 months & no newborn unless somebody gives it to us a gift.  I found the best way to buy baby clothes is to always buy one size up,  they last longer,  & give baby room to grow. Some clothes fit differently also.

My son weighed 9lbs 7oz... needless to say he went straight to 3m or 3-6. The outfit he came home in was 3-6.. and he didn't stay in that size for very long he moved right up to 6m..
