I've been reading and re-reading old posts on newborn and baby clothing sizes and seriously kind of confused. Seems like so many moms had babies bigger than K, but the wore NB for WEEKS or longer!

K is 12 days and I feel like she either a) grew a lot longer already, and/or b) her clothes shrank a lot???

All her main stuff in NB rotation right now are Carter's sleepers and a few Baby Gap onesies. I always wash in cold water and tumble dry low. Before she arrived I was hang drying everything, but seeing as how we only have like 5 sleepers and going through at least 2 a day, I just needed them clean, fast.

She was born at 6lbs 7 oz. and 18" long. She lost over 10% weight and At her first check up she was back up to 6 lbs 1 oz. but I swear according to her clothes she's grown at least an inch! I know there's probably some shrinkage, but where her feet used to be at least 2 inches shorter than the feet, she now fits into the footed parts! I'm thinking she needs some new sleepers but the 0-3 we have look soooo much longer than the NB.

K's not even 2 weeks yet and looks pretty small.. So I'm not sure how other bigger babies wore NB sizes up to 3 months?
