how long do 3 month clothes from carters last?

Question

I am due in October and I have yet to buy any clothes for my son. I need to figure out how many I need to get and I want to know how long they will last. How long do 3 month clothes from carters last usually?

Answer

Our daughter was born average 7 lbs 1 oz and 19 inches long.  She was in newborn for 4 weeks. 1-3 months for 8 weeks. 3-6 months for 4 weeks. 6-9 months for 8 weeks. She's now 9 months and 23 lbs- in  9-12 months clothes.
They grow out of them fast. I have HUNDREDS of clothes she never even worn...bevause she's been in long sleepers, or onsies for the whole time.. knowing all this now,  I wish I was smarter and bought clothes at consignment stores instead of full price at brand name stores..

Answer

This is the size chart from the Carter's website:

Answer

Carters runs more generous sizing than many other brands, gerber being one of the smallest running brands I know. The kid may go through the sizes quickly or slowly. But a 3 mo will probably be wearable longer from carters than most other brands. But on a smaller baby it may be too big for a little while. I have a 2 yr old who Just moved into size 4t clothes, and my friend has a 2 1/2 yr old who is in 18 months still. So a lot does depend on the kid.

Answer

my baby girl is 3 months old and around 13ish pounds. carters 3 months fit but are a bit snug, and 6 months fit but are a bit loose.

Answer

Depends on baby. My 5.5 month old is still in 3 month

Answer

They do shrink. The pants last a bit longer though. My son was in 3 months until 4 months but every baby is different. He's been in the right months of clothes pretty much since he was born.
