Hannah Andersen has been my best bet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brands-for-the-tall-and-slender-baby#post-210392 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 17:45:42 +0000 kgbee 210392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had good luck with Circo for our tall skinny boy, maybe they have sleepers too? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brands-for-the-tall-and-slender-baby#post-209882 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 10:48:26 +0000 Honeybee 209882@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both DD and DS have been long and skinny (DS is 95th percentile for height, but only 25th for weight!). I second the suggestion of Carter's. I've also had luck finding infant's shorts/pants that have built in elastic around the waist at the Gap and Target. Finally, I've had some luck with finding drawstring shorts/pants at Old Navy, but many stores do not carry drawstring bottoms for infants. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brands-for-the-tall-and-slender-baby#post-209552 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 06:17:42 +0000 mrs. bird 209552@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You could try the Disney brand. Their stuff 'grows', the onsie have a second row of snaps, so you can make them longer without having to buy more. I think they're soft too. I'm not a fan of gerber, they don't seem as soft &amp; they run SUPER small. </p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Disney-010022DD-Cuddly-Bodysuit-5-Pack/dp/B004OA7QU4/ref=pd_sbs_a_1" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Disney-010022DD-Cuddly-Bodysuit-5-Pack/dp/B004OA7QU4/ref=pd_sbs_a_1</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brands-for-the-tall-and-slender-baby#post-209542 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 05:16:13 +0000 bpcmarj 209542@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Penny is long and slim, too. She's in the 95th for height and the 50th for weight. So far, carters onsies have been my favorite. The ones from target (just one you by carters) or the carters brand for walmart seem to be even longer and skinnier than the regular brand.</p> <p>I am thinking of leaning to sew if she stays this way...hah. Her pants are almost all huge around the waist but too short!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brands-for-the-tall-and-slender-baby#post-209536 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 04:28:23 +0000 mynoahbear 209536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Baby clothes from Petit Bateau runs long and slim. They were perfect for my first baby because he was skinny and long. With #2, she's a little chunkier so they don't fit as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/brands-for-the-tall-and-slender-baby#post-209531 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 02:06:44 +0000 loveisstrange 209531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So, I noticed last night that C has started to outgrow the Gerber sleepers she's been wearing lengthwise. I liked them because they were light cotton and built skinnier. She's a big girl, don't get me wrong, but her proportions make her pretty slender. She's literally off the charts for height around 25-26" long and between 14-15lbs. (She's 3 months today). She has long legs and that contributes to the problem. </p> <p>I've tried 6-9month on her and they absolutely swamp her. What are a few brands I can get that run long? The 3-6 months fits around just fine and I hate putting her in stuff that's really baggy. It's just the sleepers that aren't quite fitting. She can still wear some of her 0-3 onesies and her 3-6 onesies, pants and outfits fit just fine. </p>
