    The smallest we had was 0000, but many outfits were 000. They might have been a little baggy but not too much.

    yeah...no.

    DD went home in 00000
    DS went home in a 0000 but was really a very large 000 and only squashed into it by his awful mother lol.

    DD came home in a 00000 singlet and newborn nappy, that absolutely swamped her tiny little body!! The singlet came to her ankles almost!! She was tiny when we left. DS is noted as being 'significantly larger than average' for his gestation (oh great, ANOTHER 'thing'!!) so will get back to you with his sizes later

    DD was in 0000 for 3-4 months.

    I think stick with the couple of 00000 that you have and buy some 0000 and some 000 depending on how fast your bub grows and remember you can always run out and buy more clothes. We had to do that with DD!

    Can't remember with DS - probably a 0000.

    DD1 - 000 (she was my longest and biggest at 8 pound 11)
    DD2 - 0000 (she was 8 pound 10 but short at 52cm)
    DD3 - got into 000's last week - so she was in 0000 for 6 weeks.

    All mine were in 0000 and they were baggy at 1st but by 6 weeks they were getting tight so went into 000 and were in them until about 3 months old.

    DS went straight into 000- i'd keep the coupe of 00000 that you have and get a few of 0000 and 000, like others have said, you can always get some more if you need them

    Olive & Beema funny about that too, cause DS1 only fitted into 0000 for short time i thought DS2 would be a big bubba and be the same so i stocked up on 000 not knowing we would need 00000 when he was born, so same thing my mum & sister went and bought heeps of 00000 for him!
