Huh... Well I Guess I Shouldn't Tell People Not To Buy newborns.

It depends on how big your baby is as to how long they'll stay in the newborn clothes. My LO is a month old today, and still has some newborn clothes that she drowns in. She weighs 8 lbs 2 oz now.

I have all mine organized by size too. I only have newborn stuff out, and 0 to 3 month stuff in a drawer waiting to be put out. Everything else is in a box until she grows into it. It ddoesn't hurt to have alot of something, but it can get to the point where its a tad bit much. I have 30 baby towels. I'm trying to get people to take them becsuse I have so many lol. But wait until your lo gets here to start downsizing. I agree with a poster above, sleep n plays, and regular onsies are the best. Having a few cute outfits for going out is good, but you don't want them in those all the time. They're just going to poop and spit up on them lol.

I know I have too much stuff and I haven't had my shower yet... My bf has a lot of older cousins who are finished having babies and they have been giving us boxes of little girl clothes! And of course I still wanted to go pick out a few new things myself... After my shower I plan to go through and organize everything and sort out what I really need.. But I don't mind having the extra since this is our first and we are planning on more
