i'd say both just incase you have a big baby!!!!

I've heard a few people say that even their large babies were fine in newborn clothes. You should have a good idea nearer the time if you're expecting an exceptionally large baby! It's rare that really big babies arrive unexpected.

I've packed new born and just 1 0-3 in case. DH can always bring more that way if needed.

i've packed one piece of 'tiny baby' clothing, mainly newborn and one 0-3 just to be on safe side x

i have both. Not sure if I will pack both, but my brother was not a big baby weight wise, he was very tall and so didnt fit newbor baby grows. My mum said it was a big confusing, lol.

Niamh is still in newborn now at 7 weeks old, so I would only pack one 0-3 month outfit. You can always get your OH to get more if need be.

Hannah was 8 pounds 10 ounces and 23 inches long and just barely fit in a 7-10 pound outfit (it was summer though so I didn't have her in pants). I'd probably back one 0-3 months just in case
