Different clothing sizes are available for babies. These sizes changes from country to country and region to region. Enough care should be taken while choosing the sizes. If you take your baby to the shopping you can easily figure out which size suites for your baby. However, if your baby is not with you while you are on shopping and you do shopping after a period of 2 or 3 months, then you should be more cautious in selection of size. For one reason, babies grow at a rapid pace and your selection should suit the current baby’s tummy. The second reason, if you go for online shopping, there are different codes used in different websites. You are advised to shop from an exclusive website of a popular brand like Oo Yoo where you are likely to get the right choice. If you are not able to find the correct fit, you may want to return the item which will be waste to time and effort.

While choosing newborn clothing for boys some brands of clothing sizes will be different. You should be careful enough to check the size and purchase one up size or down size by making adjustments yourself. This happens particularly with some kind of fabrics made by some companies (like Bonds).
The above codes are for guidance only but there is no hard and fast rule that you should stick to the above mentioned size only. Some children will be fat and some will be slim, in any case, the clothing should be selected one size up or down the above mentioned code as per the need. If you want to carry one to the hospital ward for the coming new-born babe, you are advised to go with both S and M sizes. You can also check Kids World which is a great site for clothes of kids.
