My LO was in 0-3 for a good four months, and she was 85th percentile for length and 50th height at that age.

My kids have all been in 0-3 until around 6 months. You never know you might get more use out of them then you think. And if your LO will go to daycare you can have a good stash there in case they have blowouts without having to take clothes in all the time.

@knittylady: I would just keep them all and donate once you really don't need them. Of course seasonal stuff, you could probably get rid of right away.

K was in Carter's NB sizes for a good 6 weeks and could still fit everything without the feet now at 8 weeks. But she's growing like a weed suddenly and I worried that she'd grow out of her 0-3 stuff so fast, I just went and exchanged a couple of summer pieces for 3-6 months in hopes of her wearing them longer.

@runsyellowlites: That is so crazy how tiny P is!

Mine wore them for months. She wasn't a spitter-upper or a leaker, though, so she only needed one outfit each day. I'd say keep 10 cute things out and bundle the rest up. Keep it until you have a better idea of how many you need per day.

I almost exclusively had my baby in sleep and plays for the first four months. I did laundry every other day so we used 5 or 6 and they just got heavy wear.

My LO is 50th % for weight but 90th for length and we use cloth diapers, so she was in 0-3 from 4 weeks to about 14 weeks. If we didn't cd, we could still be using some 0-3. I would just keep what you like or somewhat like, being more free with sleep and plays because those are so easy at that age!

I probably changed my son's entire outfit at least 3 times a day the first few months because of spitup. Having lots of clothes the first few months will keep you from doing laundry all the time.

We are JUST starting to grow out of 0-3 month now, and it's solely because DS is REALLY tall. He's 3 months old now and wearing 3-6m

For all sizes I keep the following on hand:

10-15 onesies
5-8 Sleepers/sleepnplays
6 pairs of cotton pants
10 tops
10 pairs of socks
2 Sweaters
1 Coat
2 hats

That rotation has always gotten me through about a week (5 days). I find I am doing laundry a couple of times a week and regarless of how much I have the same 10 things get worn again and again.

I also only keep things that I love because I've found that if I don't love them, I will not put him in them!
