I'd get more 3-6 mos than 0-3 if that's what you're asking. Seemed like Chu was only in 0-3 for a couple weeks. People gave me a lot of 3-6 mos and told me that i'd be glad for it. They were right. Laughing

Yeah, Chu still has 0-3 with the tags on them. He lived in 3-6 and 6-9 for the longest. Then he jumped to 12-18, skipped 18-24 and went straight to 2T.

i had waaaay too much stuff for finn, so this time i'm trying to hold myself back and not sn[i][/i]atch up every adorable thing i see. it's hard though, baby girl clothes are just too darn cute!

finn never fit into newborn clothes or diapers. this time my mom has bought esme 3 newborn sleepers, but they're carter's brand and i think they run big. i also have a small package of newborn diapers from finn, just in case.

for 0-3, i have 10 onesies, 7 sleepers, 3 outfits. with finn, i swear i had like 25 onesies, 20 sleepers, 15 outfits. when i packed that size away i realized he hadn't ever worn half of it.

when do you find out the sex?

That is what size he was supposed to be in. My poor daughter was so tiny, she wore NEWBORN clothes and diapers for 3 months.

Kaylee was in newborn clothes for a month. She was in 0-3 for 4 months and still fits into most of her 3-6 month clothes. Most of the clothes she's in are 6-9 months though. The pants are long enough, but they're still a little loose in the waist. And she is still in size 2 diapers.

I started buying stuff here and there almost immediately. Of course I didn't REALLY start shopping until after we found out the sex at 20 weeks.

Brayden was in 0-3 for a long time! Probably til 6 months or so. He is 12 months now and still in some 6-9 months stuff! I wouldn't buy a TON clothes wise because you just don't know what size the baby will be! Everyone swore I was going to have a HUGE baby and so everyone bought bigger sizes and we had to actually go buy more of the smaller stuff for him!

And I didn't buy anything until I found out the sex, I didn't want to go real crazy before I knew because IF he was going to be a girl I wanted LOTS of pink! Didn't work out that way but oh well! Smile
