My DD was just shy off 7lbs and was in 0000 for about 3.5 months
my dd1 was popping the studs open at 3 weeks on 0000, so i got mostly 000 for dd2 thinking the same, and well they are massive on her, 0000 are a little big, the 5x0 fit her perfect still at 3 weeks! each bub is diffrent.
cant remember with the boys tho!
dd1 was 8 pound and dd2 was 7 pound
My DD was 3.6kg born and 54cm long and fit into 0000 for about 2-3 weeks before she grew out of them. Both of my DS's never fit into them. DS1 was 4.2kg and 55cm, and ds2 was 3.8kg and 56cm. While they may have fit into them width wise, they were both waaayyyy too long to get anywhere near them. And DS2 is already now into 00. I also think DS1 was into 00 by this age too....
Maybe if you do buy some, get things without feet or seperates rather than full suits and even if bubs is a bit bigger than first thought, she will fit into them and you can just put socks on her.
Lucinda is 7 weeks & 1 day old and she is starting to wear 00. She wore 0000 for about a week or 2. She was 9lb 3oz & 53 cms born (if that helps)
DS2 (7lb10oz) & DD2 (8lb13oz) wore 00000 when they were born and wore 0000 for over a month.
Dd1 was in them for 6 months and 000 for a year but she was a premmie. Dd2 was in 0000 for only two weeks.
About a week. They were too big when we first put them on her and then they seemed to shrink very quickly! :) To be honest, I wouldn't really bother going and getting any just yet, you can always send someone out with a shopping list if you need them when bubs arrives. :)
I've only gotten a few for this bubs as I'm not sure of her size lol. But I have been op shopping for these as I know how fast babies grow out of them. Got some super cute outfits for about $1 each. If they don't fit then I'm not going to worry about the expense
all soo different.
DD 0000 for about 3 months born at 7lb2, DS...well he went home squeezed into a 0000....and never again. He was a 9lber though.
Both of mine for just a week and that was a nearly 9 lb'er and a 10lber. They were 50 and 51 cms though so not very long for their hefty weight!
I can't believe how close you are to the end! As you know DD was/is pretty tiny (still wearing 0's at 2) so was in 4 0's for quite a while. I actually still have all of Imogen's stuff if you want to look through and borrow any of it.
About a month - DD was 7lb 5oz
Ds1 was about two or three weeks. He was 7 pound 14 and 50cm. Ds2 maybe 5 mins lol. He was 10pound 4 though and 55cm.
DS1 was 7lb2oz, 48cm and wore 0000's for approximately 4 weeks if i remember correctly.
DS2 was 8lb2oz, 52cm and he only wore 0000's for about 2 weeks
DS3 was 9lb15oz, 59cm long so he never got into 0000's at all ....he was too big all round (weight/length).
Maybe buy a few items but leave the tags on that way if bubs does turn out to be a bit bigger then your expecting you can return them and get more in a size that fits. Goodluck not long now until your little one will be making her entrance :)
Ds was 8lb15oz and 53cm when born and he wore 0000 for a month. He's now 7weeks4days old and still fits in some 0000 sleeveless & legless suit but they are starting to get a little tight around his nappy.
DS 1 &2 never got into 0000's lol they were monsters they went into 000 and maybe grew from there like rockets lol
DS 3 was in 00000 for about 4 weeks, then 0000 till he was 3 months and then 000/00 till he was 10-11 months he was so tiny
DD just got out of her 0000, but jumped to 00 somehow i dont know, she really just did get a huge growth spurt, she is in between 000 and 00 but i put her in 00 due to the 000 looking very uncomfortable..
both of mine wore them for a month or so but they were getting short near the end of it cloth nappies made it a bit quicker though both 51cm born and 7pd11oz and 8pd11oz
My eldest was in 0000's for 5 days, my second son for 2 weeks. I would not buy any now, and if you have a smaller bub you can get someone to buy 3 or 4 growsuits to see you through until bub is older.
My smaller babies were only in them for a week or so, the bigger two never went in them at all.
I was going to suggest same as Kim & Traveller - don't buy any now, wait & see. Or, if you do buy them, leave the tags on. Don't do what I did - convinced I was having a smaller baby I took the tags off everything & pre-washed it - she was 10lb8 & had sooo many things that never got worn :p
