Big Boy

My son will be 10 weeks old tomorrow and he's already grown out of 3-6 month size clothes. He weighed 10lb 7oz at birth and is now nearly 18lb. It is starting to cause problems with baby equipment as he is fast approaching weight limits on such things as bouncy seats and swings not to mention a complete wardrobe change every couple of weeks.
Any advice on keeping up with him.

do check out the for sale board here... there are often people either giving away, or selling cheaply, clothes and things... might be handy if he doesn't slow down!
Whatever you're feeding him, it's obviously good stuff!

Hiya, my advice would be not to get rid of clothes too quickly! DS was born at 11lb 5oz and whizzed along his own mad curve way above any centile line. Now at 11 months and crawling, he has dropped down a clothes size (back to 9-12 months from 12-18) so I;m glad I didn't get shut of much stuff.
I found Tesco jogging pants were good - only £4 a pair and had "kind" waistbands (very large) for his little tummy!
