I didn't buy much because my dr kept talking about how big the baby was going to be. I ended up borrowing onesies from my nephew who is 3 months older than my son. That worked out nicely. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-your-lo-fit-in-newborn-sizes/page/2#post-2070666 Sun, 15 Feb 2015 13:10:02 +0000 msplatypus 2070666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 Weeks.

He was 7lbs 12 oz at birth, and was up past birth weight a week after birth. I think he's just a pretty tall little guy. I stocked up on mainly 0-3 and 3-6 mo clothes, but he is now almost too big for most 3-6 mo clothes at just over 10 weeks :meh: so, you never know!! Ha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-your-lo-fit-in-newborn-sizes/page/2#post-2070618 Sun, 15 Feb 2015 12:02:36 +0000 PinkElephant 2070618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>3-4 months for both kids - a bit less for footed sleepers. They were both around 5.5 lbs at birth. </p> <p>For some reason both have blown through 6-9 month size onesies - I wish we'd gone right from 3-6 to all 6-12. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-your-lo-fit-in-newborn-sizes/page/2#post-2070541 Sun, 15 Feb 2015 10:28:59 +0000 loveisstrange 2070541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 weeks.

He was 23" and way too long for them.

I actually had to buy a bunch because he was swimming in the 0-3 and I expected him to be big since I was big and overdue. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-your-lo-fit-in-newborn-sizes/page/2#post-2070285 Sat, 14 Feb 2015 23:17:14 +0000 gingerbebe 2070285@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS was 6lbs 15oz at birth and I had no newborn clothes. The 0-3 were so baggy on him I hated it. I bought 4 footie PJs in NB and he was in them for 5-6 weeks. He fit NB clothes that weren't footed for another week or two. He was actually in 0-3 the shortest! He blew right through to 3-6. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-your-lo-fit-in-newborn-sizes/page/2#post-2069522 Sat, 14 Feb 2015 00:10:31 +0000 SweetiePie 2069522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>3-4 weeks </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-your-lo-fit-in-newborn-sizes/page/2#post-2069514 Sat, 14 Feb 2015 00:00:54 +0000 HLK208 2069514@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS - 8 weeks<br /> DD1 - 6 weeks<br /> DD2 - 8 weeks (but she's in the 14th percentile for weight and still wears some 0-3 month clothes at 7 months) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-your-lo-fit-in-newborn-sizes/page/2#post-2069509 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 23:55:18 +0000 daniellemybelle 2069509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>7 weeks.

DS was 8lb 5.5oz and he wore NB for close to six weeks. I know he was 10lb at 1m and still wearing it. 0-3m stuff seemed to swim on him those first few weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-did-your-lo-fit-in-newborn-sizes#post-2069405 Fri, 13 Feb 2015 21:43:02 +0000 Mamasig 2069405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS1 - never, he was over 10 pounds<br /> DS2 - about 2-3 weeks</p> <p>Both my boys zoomed through all the sizes.
