I have a kid &gt;90% for height and weight though. So we def. go through sizes quite quickly but growth has slowed compared to before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3t-to-4t#post-2422967 Fri, 15 Jan 2016 04:56:44 +0000 SugarplumsMom 2422967@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD has always been average, little even (compared to the kids her age at pre-school). But she normally fits a size up. I noticed that a lot of 3T/4T stuff ran about the same size depending on brand and style - I thought she'd be in that size for a very long time.</p> <p>I was wrong. DD has grown a crazy amount since she turned 2. Just this morning, she has officially grown out of size 116 (5-6) tunic from H&amp;M. She's 3.5 yrs old. That particular style ran small/shrunk in the wash, but holy moly - I did not expect this! </p> <p>My advice: get 4T :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3t-to-4t#post-2422965 Fri, 15 Jan 2016 04:41:59 +0000 lamariniere 2422965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With my son, once we got to 18 months, he grew much more slowly and tends to stay in a size for a year. </p> <p>My daughter is 25 months and her growth has been a lot more unpredictable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3t-to-4t#post-2422918 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 23:59:36 +0000 Finfan 2422918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My kid was in 3T for a year and then 4T for 4 months. At 3.5, she is in 5T. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3t-to-4t#post-2422869 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 22:24:40 +0000 mrsjazz 2422869@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends on your kid. My LO was in 3t pants for spring and summer but shot up in height to 4t. She wears 3t tops and 4t pants. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3t-to-4t#post-2422863 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 22:15:02 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 2422863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ok, thanks! I think I'll just bite the bullet and get her fall clothes. Worse comes to worse, she wears it a couple times this spring and if it doesn't fit in the fall, I can sell it! Lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3t-to-4t#post-2422861 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 22:14:40 +0000 MoonMoon 2422861@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is tall and fairly big for his age at 2.5, but nowhere near 4t yet! I think you'll be safe with 3t, most probably. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3t-to-4t#post-2422856 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 22:08:58 +0000 Foodnerd81 2422856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 2.5 year old seems to have flown through 2T and is more in 3T now. She's about average height and weight. A lot of pants are too slim and long (she has more of a chubby toddler shape than a slim preschooler shape). In the fall she was still fitting in 24 month. </p> <p>Unfortunately it's probably one of those things that depend on your kid. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3t-to-4t#post-2422844 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 21:58:55 +0000 Ash 2422844@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 2 year old hasn't changed sizes in over a year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3t-to-4t#post-2422812 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 21:44:58 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 2422812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DD is turning 2 in a couple weeks and I've been buying 3t clothes recently. I figure dresses will just be a little long, same as shirts and shorts. Pants I've been buying in 2t since her legs are short. </p> <p> I'm looking to use my Gymboree bucks and wanted to buy sale stuff and it's all winter stuff. I live in Texas, so it'll start getting warm t shirt weather in March/April and won't cool down again until Oct/Nov. My question is this: How much did your kids grow after they turned 2? I'm not sure if I should get 3t for the next cold season, or buy 4t. She's 50% height, but chunky. </p>
