Baby Size Guide: How to Choose the Right Size for Your Baby

Choosing baby clothes is not just about style, but also about practicality and comfort. The right size is essential to ensure your baby is comfortable, but each brand can fit differently. In this handy guide, we'll help you navigate the size options and discover why Pipicot is the ideal choice for dressing your little one with quality and care.


Why choosing the right size is essential

Newborns grow quickly, and finding clothes that offer the right balance of comfort and fit is crucial. Clothes that are too tight can be uncomfortable, while clothes that are too big may not provide the support you need. With Pipicot , you can be sure of a slightly looser fit that offers:

  • Longer lasting.
  • Freedom of movement for your little one.
  • Comfort and style without compromise.

How do newborn sizes work?

Infant sizes are based on age, but every baby is unique. Here's a reference chart to help you choose:

Pipicot size Average age Length (cm) Weight (kg)
0-3 months Up to 3 months 50-60 cm 3-5 kg
3-6 months From 3 to 6 months 60-66 cm 5-7 kg
6-12 months From 6 to 12 months 66-76 cm 7-10 kg
12-18 months From 12 to 18 months 76-86 cm 10-12 kg

Note:

Pipicot garments run slightly larger than average, allowing your child to wear them longer. This means that if you’re between sizes, you may want to consider sizing up for a snug fit.


Our advice for choosing the right size

1. Measure your child

Use a tape measure to measure your length and chest circumference. This will help you compare your measurements to our size chart and choose the perfect size.

2. Consider the season

If you’re shopping for the next few months, keep in mind how much your baby might grow in the meantime. Our looser fit helps cover that variability.

3. Think about the use

For bodysuits and rompers, a slightly larger fit may offer more freedom of movement, while for jackets and accessories you may prefer a more precise measurement.


Why does Pipicot fit large?

We believe that comfort comes first, and our design takes into account:

  1. Rapid growth of newborns: Our clothes last longer, saving you time and money.
  2. Comfortable Fit: Each piece is designed to allow your child to move freely and without restriction.
  3. Sustainability: A garment that lasts longer means fewer frequent purchases and less environmental impact.

What to do if you are undecided between two sizes?

Here's our advice:

  • Size up: If you prefer a tighter fit or if your child is on the lower end of the chart.
  • Size up: If you want the garment to last longer or if you are buying it for the next few months.
