what size?

Mrs-N · Oct 7th, 2008, 07:45 AM

im planning on getting joshua an all in one suit (snow suit/pram suit) for winter.

ive seen one i like in the jo jo maman bebe catalouge,
it doesnt have feet in it which is why i like it coz joshua has long legs i would struggle to get one that fits.

the only problem is, what size to get.

they do 3-6 months OR 6-12 months.

by christmas joshua will be just over 4 months old.

in clothes he is currently in size 3-6 in trousers (long legs) and 0-3 in tops.

do i risk buying the 3-6 months one or do i get the 6-12 months one.

help me please x

i would buy the smaller one, snowsuits are usually made big, bought caitlyn a 3-6 months one for now and it buries her even tho all her clothes are 3-6 and fit perfectly.

its just the 6-12 will be abit big.

the bigger one you'll definitley be able to use the smaller one you'l end up taking back. you'll get more use out of the bigger one. (i had this dilemma in a shop yesterday, so i've put a lot of thought into this matter, they're expensive aren't they? what will you dress his feet in, i've got a long legged lady...)

I would get the bigger, I always get my boys winter coats a size bigger, think when it is really cold you may have a vest and warm jumper under the snowcoat so it will need to be bigger to get over the layer of clothes. xx

I'd get the bigger. At least if its a bit big he can still wear it

It probably would since it has no feet in it, but you could always get 2 and send one back. Or maybe buy one from a shop then you could try it on him. All i know is i bought caitlyn a snowsuit for now and she's gonna be in it for a long while yet, it no where near fits her and looks kinda silly on her all loose, her arms go no where near the end of the sleeves!
