Did your LO wear newborn clothing if you went 38+ weeks.

Tell me weight and for how long did he/she wear them?

I didn't buy much newborn clothing. I have been measuring big since day one, so I just figured I'd skip it. Well now I am reconsidering. My DH, sister, had a baby last week... he was born 8lbs 3oz. And his newborn clothes are kinda big on him... so now I'm kinda freaking out. I have like... maybe 10 onesies/sleepers... would that be enough? Ugh.

My son was born at 40 weeks 3 days and he wore a 0-3 shirt the day I took him home and it was snug lol. The pants, however, were way to big. He was 9 pounds and 6 ounces.

i had two girls.

first was 7lb 14oz, wore premie at birth and wore NB for about a month after that.

second was 8lb 10oz and wore newborn for like 3 weeks.

DD wore a couple premies, then newborn til about 2-3 months, and around then I started using 0-3 months. But she was born at 6 lbs 7 oz.

Oh wow. That's reassuring for me. Lol. That's a big baby!  

I went all the way to 39weeks my DD was 7lbs 13oz and 19 inches and she even fit into Preemie clothes!

My son was 9.7 and 21.5" and wore newborn pants for no joke almost 2 months, t-shirts for are least a month and pjs for a few weeks at least.

I went 40W 4D. He weighed 8 lbs 5 oz.

He wore newborn clothes for the first month then I put him in 0-3 month clothing

My daughter was 7lb 13oz and she wore newborn for like 4+months. She's a peanut though. She still fit into some of it when I got rid of it, but I figured she got her use and my friend just had a nb lol.

I measured big but DD was only 7lbs 5oz. She was in size 'tiny baby up to 7.5lbz' for about six weeks. Now she is in 'new baby up to 10lbs' even though she weighs about 13lbs.

my daughter was born 40 weeks 3 days.. weighed 8lbs 2 oz she worn newborn clothe, then 0-3 months, and now she wears 3 months and 3-6 months (shes almost 4 month)

Lol yes he was big. A week before I went into labor the doctor said he was around 7.5 pounds and I was like um wow so off haha.

Ugh, smurf. Looks like I will wait till Ethan is born... and maybe we will be stopping at the store on the way home to get some newborn clothing. Lol...

Lol, looks like I should have posted this earlier than 38 weeks. Lmfao. Damnit. I suck.

Hell, if his clothes are to big... that isn't terrible... or is it?
