Tips for Buying the Right Size

When choosing the right baby clothing size as a gift or while pregnant, it can be confusing to pick the right size for someone that isn’t even born yet. Here are some tips:

  • If in doubt, buy a size larger.
  • If big babies run in the family, go for sizes for 3 months and over.
  • Don’t buy sizes below 0 months, or 56 or size 00000, since these are made for premature babies and won’t fit a full term newborn.
  • Always have a few spare clothes in the next size up.
  • Remember that different brands can differ in the actual size so don’t assume that all clothes with the same size will fit the same way.
