WHat size to get for coming home outfit??

I have an outfit picked out at the Gap but I am not sure if I should order "up to 7lbs" or "0-3" months. When DS was born he was 7 lbs 13 ounces and went home in a newborn sized outfit. What would you do?

DD was 7 lbs 1 oz and her newborn take home outfit swam on her, so I say definitely newborn.

I brought one of each. My DS was born weighing 10lb, 9oz. The newborn outfit just barely fit and that was only time he ever wore the newborn size.

DS was 8 lbs 5 ozs & wore a newborn outfit. I would get newborn size unless you are expecting a very big baby.

DS was 8 lbs and wore NB for 5 weeks. The 0-3 was huge on him.

DD's coming home outfit was 0-3 mo and that was a huge mistake. She was beyod swimming in it, her legs weren't even in the legs of the pants! She was 6'13. For our next LO we'll definitely have a newborn size outfit.

I brought a NB outfit and a 0-3. My DD was 7lbs 11 oz, and the NB outfit was a bit big on her.

So I'd bring both, but you'll probably be ok with newborn.

DS was born 9lb, 8oz. i brought both sizes to the hospital but 0-3 was too big so he went home in newborn and wore that size for about a week.
