Hey third trimester mummys!...help!!...i have been shopping and got loands of baby clothes! Some new born which say upto 11lb and some say 0-3months which say upto14lb...iv basically done that all along...however today something confused me...i went to adams where by the way there was a huge sale!!!...the newborn clothes i purchased said 7lb?! What do i do?? Keep them or return them? Im keeping the ones that say upto 10lb but what shall i do with the rest?? Any tips?? What sizes have you ladies got for your little treasures?? xx

Haven't bought anything new from a store.

I bought a bunch of things from our local baby second hand store, in sizes 0-3 and 3-6 for warm weather. I dont' buy newborn. When they're new, they're in sleeping things and onsies anyway for the first month or two, and by then they're out of the newborn things and into 0-3.

But that's MY experience with MY babies.

Id personally return them. Maybe have a few bits in smaller sizes, just in case your baby is small BUT 0-3 are much better because they leave room to grow into, plus the fact that these bubba doo's grow so quickly anyway! It's not a problem if clothes are big on them, better than them being too small.

Hope that helps.

my mom bought 99% of clothes for the baby (mainly sleepers and onesies) in various sizes, but not too many in newborn.

So far I only have 2 new born sleepers and 3 0-3 month outfits. I am having my shower in a few weeks, so I figure most of my girlfriends will buy newborn stuff. The few things I have bought is all 3-6. Since I don't know if my LO is a boy or a girl, I am waiting to buy the majority of stuff.

Thanks ladies...are clothes upto 11lb ok do you think? Iv got mainly sleepsuits in newborn also and 1 outfit...but 7lb just sounds far too small and looks it...i only realised when i got home...was thinking of buying a few 3-6 months...

I've bought zero newborn clothes (although I do have a few family members who have bought them). A few 0-3 month outfits, a lot of 3-6 months and 6-9 months. I figure bigger is better than smaller

We have a few bits and peices in newborn but we bought them from Asda where they werent too expensive, we didn't want to buy loads of expensive newborn stuff for him to grow out of in 2 weeks.

We have 7 sleepsuits and 7 bodysuits, 1 pair of pyjamas, 2 hats, 2 pairs of booties and 2 pairs of scratch mits in newborn size. Everything else is 3-6 months.

I have a few newborn but mostly 0-3

Ive also got mainly 0-3 months a few new born bits ive bought some 3-6 aswell, i think if uv got a few in 11lbs it will be ok for a little while but they do grow so fast so 7lbs is quite small and prob wouldnt last that long xxxx
