    DD was 5pound 15 & was in 00000 bonds wondersuits for a couple of weeks, then into normal 00000 for another couple of weeks then 0000's for around 2 months.
    You will find that different brands are different sizes as well. DD didnt wear quite a few things because they were labelled as one size & when she was at that size we got them out & they were too small. Others you will find are huge, DD still fits her 000 Sooki Baby jacket with room to spare (which Im happy about because its about the only item I paid full price for)

    my bub was low birth weight so we were in 5 0's for a month, then 4 0's till 3 months, 3 0's till 5-6 months, and has now outgrown most of her 00's so moving into her 0's (due to her length not her weight). Regards the length/weight thing - It's best to buy jumpsuits which don't enclose the feet as you get more wear out of them (and add socks of course) as if it's a nice snug fit if you have a big baby it won't matter as the feet won't be enclosed therefore keeping the legs from stretching out properly KWIM.

    On another note - in 8 months I have bought my baby maybe 5 items of clothing - between my baby shower, church friends and friends hand-me-downs I have had more clothes then DD can wear before she outgrows them - so don't buy too much yet.
