How much newborn size clothes should I buy?

My hubby is very tall and I was a long baby so I'm thinking not very much nb size will be necessary but I also don't want to be short handed I have about 8 jumpers right now should I get a few more just to not wash all day I've been trying to buy 0-3 months more because I imagine that's gonna be a more used size

My son was 7 lbs and I beleive wore them for abo it a month. I bought a ton this time around because I really don't feel like doing laundry constantly. They go through 3 outfits a day.
