I always see the baby shoe sizes listed by a number and then a month range. But in my eyes, the shoes often look SO BIG for what I think a baby/kid would wear at that age. Maybe because they're wide for chubby little feet? Maybe because they wear socks inside? IDK. Just wondering how often those recommended months sizing actually matched when they could wear it?

Well, my experience is that the newborn size 1 or smaller fit for like a few days! My lo has big feet though too. 5 months weating socks for 6-12 months..
-
At 10 months, most size 1 shoes are too big( but too narrow) for my LO! There is an eight month old at daycare who is wearing size 4 shoes!
The only shoes that work for LO right now are 0-6 month size from See Kai Run's Smaller styles.
-
Humph! So interesting there's such a big variance in shoe sizes and fits!
-
The 0-6, 6-12 mo sizing fit fairly on track for my LOs but after that it gets a little dicey since you want the shoes to fit perfectly once they are walking. At 1yr DD was wearing a size 4 and DS is wearing a 5 at 14 mo. They don't have particularly wide or large feet, average I would say..
-
My lo's feet are way bigger than average. She's 15 months and in a size 6. right now I think most babies wear a size 4. Just depends on the kid!
-
She's also in 18 and some 24 month clothes, she's never been in the right month clothes. She's in the 95th percentiles for height and weight. So of course she'll have big feet.
-
My lo is six months old and the smallest size they make is huuugggeee on her. I don't get baby shoe sizing at all. They run HUGE.
-
depends on the brand. Pedipeds fit pretty true to size, I think they're a four and LO is 8 months - although there is definitely growing room. So I guess he's probably a 3.
But he has a bunch of size 2 shoes and those fit.
Most of the 6-12 mos shoes are huge on him. He has small feet.
@Rainbow Sprinkles: it's inches. Size 4 is four inches.
-
@Coco Bee: Oh! Thanks for sharing! I did not know that was how the sizing went!
-
@shopaholic: I only figured that out cause I measured LO's foot! then I looked it up. I was so confused. however I don't think babies feet start out at one inch so maybe my theory is faulty.
-
@Coco Bee: LOL! Can you imagine little 1" feet?
-
@shopaholic: hahaha I know right... I'll measure what LOs newborn feet were when he wakes up but I'm sure they were at least 2-3". His shoes he wears now measure 4.5" and he has about .5" of wiggle room, and they are size 4-4.5 so I'm assuming that's how it goes but idk!!
-
I think it just depends. My LO is super tall and wearing 12-18 month clothes at 7 months, but her feet are still 3-6 month sized. The feet in all of her footie pjs are huge!
-
My LO kinda has big feet, so it throws everything off. For instance, she got a cute pair of pink Converse that should fit when she's maybe sitting up on her own or almost crawling, but they fit now at 4 months. They totally matched her outfit yesterday but her feet weren't ready to be confined yet (even though it had no sole) so she couldn't wear it and I tried ;D Yeh ... she probably won't ever get to wear them. By the time her feet relax, they'll be way too small.
