I’m due my second baby in October and I’ve been told I’ll need an induction or c section at 37 weeks due to medical reasons. (They’re not 100% happy with placental function)
I’m wondering what clothes sizes to buy, as baby will be born early. He’s measuring around the 60th percentile currently, which is the smaller side for me personally as my first baby was a 90th + percentile baby; born at 9lbs1oz (40 weeks) and went straight into 0-3 month clothes.
I’m unsure what kind of weight this baby will be but I’m guessing around 7lbs? so I’m interested what was your baby clothes size if born 6, 7, 8 lbs x

My daughter was 8lbs1oz (41+3), son was 7lbs15oz (40+2), both wore 1 month for about a month or just over, and then I started moving them more into the 0-3 clothes! I hardly bought any of the first size for my first and realised I would have to go and buy some stuff so didn’t go crazy as I ended up keeping her in sleep suits most of the time

My baby boy bird 40w3d was 9lb 2oz. He didn’t fit newborn but fit into up to 1 month for about 3 weeks then into 0-3months. In all honestly I wish I only bought 0-3 month clothes as there was sooo many in smaller sizes he didn’t even end up wearing

My LB was 7lbs 12oz, he wore newborn for a while and then 0-1m for a while after that x

my LG was 6lb13oz and was in first size for a couple to a few months as they buried her at first x
