Clothes
What size clothes are all the babys into now? Holly seems to be at a really funny stage her 6-9 are mostly too small for her but the 9-12 are HUGE on her, she has a wee cardi on from next today and it drowns her but the 6-9 is wayyy to small. Does anyone else find this? Or is it my tumble drier shrinking clothes xxx

I had Noah weighed yesterday and he's 17lb 7 so i thought he seemed fairly light compared to a lot of his contemparies. He was born on the 3rd and weighed a good 7lb13.
He is quite skinny but tall too, hence why some of the bigger clothes fit him.
They do the clothes by height over here rather than months so for example 3-6 months stuff is 68cm and then 6-9 months is 74cm. I assume the sizes compare with the stuff in the UK?
I am really lucky as a lady that works with my hubby has a baby nearly exactly a year older than Brendan and as she is 41 is not planning anymore (this one was a big but happy surprise!). So she is just passing all his clothes over to me for Bren which is fantastic. She has also given us things like a baby bath, baby walker, some toys, sleeping bags, saved me an absolute fortune!!
I have a huge suitcase full of clothes up to a year old for Bren so every now and then I get it down and put the stuff in he has grown out of and get the next stuff out. I have only bought the odd bits of stuff and that was mainly just things I have seen on sale.
Hmmm...sorry for all that waffle!!
I find that it is the waists as well that are too small!! They seem to really dig into him!
Next I find come up quite big.
We also have a plastic box under his bed full of clothes up to age 3 but I'm not as organised as Liz and I panic that we haven't got enough for him - go buy a load then remember my box and have twice as much as we need!!!

friend sorted me a bag out so he's been wearing the tshirts and jeans - also the romper suits seem to be better than sleepsuits so dont restrict his feet!
