JK do 6-9 month clothes, and I have always found their clothes a little on the small size (i.e. at 4 months Ella was wearing their 9-12 month togs and they were a perfect fit). Otherwise you check out the PP outlet shop as some of their older collections have 6-9 month sizing.
Does anyone else find that sometimes the PP sizing is a little off? the other day Ella was wearing a size 2 top and it was a perfect fit- I did wonder if the top had the wrong size on it as there is no way she should be wearing size 2!!!!

T is in size 2 from about Xmas, he wasn't even 18 months.
My family is short! Dh's family only average. There is hope for him yet!
I find patch to be the best fit and worth every penny.
Lets just add T had Miss C in a small fitting size 6-9months on Sat. I had to point out when the long sleeve heads up her arm it tends to mean she is growing out of it LOL :)

It's definately hard to get it right! I haven't tried JK for their clothes yet, but I get most of Ava's stuff from Farmers and the WH
I just bought Ava some trousers from Farmers 6-9 months, they are too long but fit her well round the waist, we are going into cloth nappies this week so I'll need the extra room. She doesn't fit the 3-6 month stuff and the 6-9 month is too big! She is at that in between stage!
I have noticed that some labels tell you the weight, which for a 6-9 month is about 10kg, Ava is a bigish baby at 8kg!! I suppose we just have to grin and bear it for the time being!

Jillian, I usually find the PP clothes are on the bigger side. I think it just depends on the cut with kids clothing though. I have some JK stuff that never fitted Sam. They seem to have very small neck holes on their tops and some things won't go over her head! And I don't think she has a larger than average head, or maybe she does and people are too scared to tell me

Yeah we find PP outlet clothes huge too. All the ones we have from there are 3-6 and they still fit!

It seems to me that the sizes of baby clothes are completely random. Anyssa is wearing every size between 000 and 2! Sometimes even the same brand fits differently!
I got some 6-9mth JK trou that fit her now, and some 3-6mth JK jeans that are too long. Also got a size 2 dress from cotton on kids (for next summer) that she can get away with wearing now (granted it is baggy). 3-6mth PP stuff fits her well, but farmers 3-6mth is really big...

Ella has a smaller than average head and I too have found some of the JK tops are too small for her around the neck hole, so don't worry you are not alone.
