Next Newborn clothes....

[fruitypie]

I want to order some clothes from the Next website. The first sizes they do are 'FIRST SIZE' and 'UP TO 1 MONTH'.....I don't think I am going to have a particularly small baby. Does anyone know which size would be more suitable?? Thanks!!

Hi I think next up to 1 month would fit baby up to 10lb and I think first size probably up to 7 and half ish?

Next first size is for up to 7lb 8oz, up to one month is up to 10lbs. If I were you I'd go for the bigger size, as even if they are too large to begin with he or she will quickly grow into them!

Sorry, cross posted!

I've got both this time as my first was 6lb7 and first size swamped her. I needed to go out and get early baby. I think it's very unusual that babies fit straight into 0-3 though. Lots of people skip newborn and then nothing fits. I'd get a few bits if newborn or up to 1 month (they usually fit longer than the label) but don't get tonnes just incase you get a 10lber.

Ahhhhhh fabulous!! Thank you guys :)

I'm having a whopping great mahoosive elephant large baby so have gone for the up to 1 month size because looking at the clothes they do look quite big whilst being small enough to be dinky iykwim

My first was 7lb 13 oz and the 0-3 month baby grows hung off him something awful! I luckily had a set of next newborn (up to 1 month) and was glad to have something that fit properly. However, as someone rightly said, it doesn't last long as a month is a blur and soon over, so I wouldn't buy toooooo much of the tiny stuff!
