What size clothes over flats & prefolds - help please.

[CeeBee]

I have a few 0000 and 000 little suits (sleevless and legless for summer) ready to go for my newborn. I am really wanting to wash them all and get them ready, but am a bit reluctant because at this point I don't know what is going to fit (and if they don't fit would rather return them for the correct size). Naturally i will have a couple of each ready to go so baby does not go naked ;) but....

Will my size 0000 (and size 000 for that matter) fit over my terry folds plus cover - or bamboo prefolds plus cover? Should I look at ditching all the 0000's and just stick to the 000's as a start?

Either way, they (the suits) look soooooo small and just can't imagine how a bulky little bot with a nappy will fit into them. They are mostly target brand - and some bonds if anyone has experience with their sizing.

FYI, bub is arriving at 37 weeks so will be 3 weeks early, but... I have been told bub is slightly bigger for GA at this stage (34 weeks) so am kind of expecting it still to be 'average' size upon birth - if that makes sense.

Any input would be great so that I can take back anything now and upsize if you guys think it would be better. (Will keep a couple of 0000 just in case but I think i may have too many).

:confused::confused::confused:

Thanks.... Cee xx

With flats, my boy wore 0000's for about a week after we got home, 000's after that. We didn't have a problem... try and remember that as big as your bump seems, they really are tiny :D
Bonds sizing is small, but my DS was in Bonds clothes - mostly wondersuits. And the target sizing seems bigger to me, he'd still fit into a 00 in some now I think, and he won't go near that in anything else!
Not long to go now! Good luck :flowerz:

I have big bubs. My eldest wore 0000 for a few days. She was in flats and I couldn't get the bottom part done up over the bot.
I started with 000 this time - lasted 3weeks. Prefolds and half flats and that was fine. He did start tiny (sorta) but he's huge now!
