Q&A: Baby clothes sizes? How long did your newborn stay in newborn clothes?

Ok so i have quiet a bit of newborn clothes, all ill need. I have a TON of 0-3 clothes. They go from sun dresses to warm winter sleepers. Shes going to be born within 14 days and it stays warm here till middle to end november. My question is after your baby was born how long did they stay in newborn clothes? hoping to squeeze in the sun dresses before cool weather!

yes.. there is a slight difference..
the “month” sizes go according to weight…
so the more the child weighs the bigger the clothing.. you can have a 18 month old in 24 month clothing
2T is for toddlers ages 2-3 years old depending on their size…
they are also cut differently..
its the same as adult clothes… and shoes..
a child age 11 can fit into a size one jeans in juniors, and also a size 14-16 in children’s.. but the cut is different depending on the shape of the body…
also the “month” sizes are for babies… you wouldnt find a onsie in size 2T.

I am opening a gift boutique with an emphasis on children’s items. (in a foreign country) I will be carrying some clothing items sizes newborn – 24 mos. I am debating whether I should expand the clothing sizes.

i had a boy born 1 month ago weighing in at 11lbs,14oz and 23 inches long. i am well aware that is huge for a newborn, and i know that he is wearing clothes made for babies well beyond his age. i’m past that point. but i am wondering if he is also odd-shaped. he has a really long torso. his legs don’t LOOK misproportioned to me, but maybe it’s just because i’m used to him. i just wonder b/c he is wearing 3-6 month onsies and even those are snug lenth-wise, some don’t fit at all. i even had him in a 6-9 month collar shirt and it his belly kept popping out of it (that did seem a bit small for 6-9 months though). but he is still wearing 0-3 month pants. the 3-6 month pants are way too long. so although he is “tall”, he’s all body. is that uncommon? i wonder if other babies that aren’t born monster-sized have this same problem…
thanks!

This is my first child, and I’m trying to organize the clothes we have for him according to size. Only I just realized that some of them are just marked “3″ or “6″ or “9″. If something is marked “3″ does that mean it’s 0-3 months, or 3-6? I know it probably depends on who made the clothes, but a lot of the ones that are marked with just one number are Carters brand. I also know from baby-sitting other kids that the month is just a guideline (for example, I sat for a little girl who was 15 months, but wore stuff in the 18 months size) and that the clothes are really based on weight, but… I would like to keep all the clothes together and don’t know if I should put things marked 3 with my other things that are marked 0-3, or if they should be with the rest of my 3-6 stuff? I also realize this may be a dumb question, but like I said before it’s my first!
