(She normally wears large sized 18m and some smaller sized 24m clothes ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/this-is-why-we-have-trouble-buying-clothes-size-chart#post-1671466 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 16:25:30 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1671466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs Green Grass: yikes! We use cloth diapers so that skews it a bit. Without though he wears 9 month or 12 month. Carters tend to fit the best. But they are still too short! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/this-is-why-we-have-trouble-buying-clothes-size-chart#post-1671451 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 15:55:50 +0000 winniebee 1671451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>T is 2 and is 32 inches and 23.5 lbs. he never ever outgrows width before length. He has a long torso though so he's in 24m/2t tops but still fits into some 6-12 shorts from last year! But then pants he needs 18-24 for length! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/this-is-why-we-have-trouble-buying-clothes-size-chart#post-1671446 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 15:49:44 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 1671446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lion: same! 6-18 month shirts, but he's barely out of 3 months for shorts and most 6 month pants fall off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/this-is-why-we-have-trouble-buying-clothes-size-chart#post-1671445 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 15:48:59 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 1671445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@twodoghouse: Carter's has definitely worked the best since their weights are much lower. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/this-is-why-we-have-trouble-buying-clothes-size-chart#post-1671443 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 15:48:13 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 1671443@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@loveisstrange: but then they look like a bag all cinched up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/this-is-why-we-have-trouble-buying-clothes-size-chart#post-1671441 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 15:46:18 +0000 pinkcupcake 1671441@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 2yo is 24 lbs and 34 inches tall - I have to get creative :) skirts never work out for us, even with adjustable waists- they slide right off. We do dresses as tops with leggings (usually as capris since she needs a smaller waist), adjustable waist pants, and rompers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/this-is-why-we-have-trouble-buying-clothes-size-chart#post-1671418 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 15:16:00 +0000 twodoghouse 1671418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At 21" and under 6 lb, my little guy is already rocking the Capri pants as well. He needs preemie for his waist but he's way too long for preemie. I think it's going to be a pants less summer. Crazy about the discrepancy in all the brands! Looks like this chart is a good resource though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/this-is-why-we-have-trouble-buying-clothes-size-chart#post-1671413 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 15:10:15 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1671413@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>haha that's my little one too... Fortunately it is summer! SHORTS! :) He can wear shirts from 6-18 months, but he has to have 18 month pants. Sheesh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/this-is-why-we-have-trouble-buying-clothes-size-chart#post-1671377 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 14:40:22 +0000 loveisstrange 1671377@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. I have a 30lb, 37" toddler. I totally get you. </p> <p>Adjustable waist pants. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/this-is-why-we-have-trouble-buying-clothes-size-chart#post-1671358 Sun, 01 Jun 2014 14:14:17 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 1671358@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you seen this fantastic pin comparing sizes of common baby brands?</p> <p>It's awesome. Except what do you do when your baby is nearly 32 inches and 19 pounds, hmm? Capri pants every day...</p> <p>[attach=689/14/n6i83u.338x600.image.jpg] </p>
