Should we start a Hanna sizing thread?

[LucyG]

It might make it easier for people to decide on sizes if they could hear what babies/toddlers of similar ages and sizes are wearing, especially if the information was centralized. I'll start. Join in if you want!

My DD is almost 23 months old, is around 30.5" tall, and weighs around 22.5 lbs. She is wearing 80 zippers, but they are very big on her. I think she'll wear them again next winter. Her one 70 zipper still fits her, also. In Hanna dresses, she wears an 80, but they are also long, and we roll up the sleeves. We just got the Love a Bug fleece in 80, and it is quite large on her. I think it will still fit all next fall and winter. I am planning to buy 80's for summer, and then go from there. I may move her up to 90's for next fall, depending on how much she grows in the next six months.

22 months and counting!

Ashton is almost 6years old and right now wears a 120 in Hannas, though I think I need to move him up to 130s. He's approx 46in or so and weighs about 53lbs or so.

Holden is almost 3years old and wears a 90 in Hannas and has been for a year now. He still has quite a bit of growth room in them so I think he'll be in them all spring/summer/fall and maybe then he'll be in 100s, not sure.

Ben is almost 6 months old, 27-28 inches and 19-20lbs. He wears 70s in jeepers and wiggles, with only a little room to grow. In Zippers he can still fit into 60s, and 70s fit him with a ton of room to grow.

[AvasMama]

Ava will be one on Sat. She weighs 18-19 pounds and is 28-29" tall. 70s are a perfect fit right now, and she can probably continue to wear them through the spring. I am buying 80s for next summer and fall.

Avery is just shy of 21 months. She is 36 inches tall and about 30-31 pounds. She has been in a 90 since November and will probably stay in one thru next fall.

Alex is almost 21 months. He is approx 33-34 inches and 28-29 pounds. He is long in the torso. He has a bunch of 80 pants that still fit, but the 80s onesies are getting too small. 80s zippers are managable, but also getting snug. I've moved him up to 90s in the long johns (prefer these to the zippers). I plan on buying 90s exclusively. I did pick up a pair of 100s Christmas long johns at the outlet, hoping they'll fit for next Christmas, but I suspect they will be too big.

Amy Grace is 20 months old, 33" tall, 26 lbs. She is currently fitting comfortably in an 80 but I am buying 90s for summer.

Wesley is almost 5, about 45" tall, and ~45lbs. He is wearing a 110 and has been since last summer. I may move him up to a 120 for summer but I'm not sure yet. He is very skinny and the waists are too big.

Parker is 7, about 51" tall, and 50lbs. Tall and thin. He wears a 130 but the 130 pants are a bit big in the waist.

[iluvmy2boys]

hmmm.... since you have older boys - what do YOU recommend I get for sizing for Ashton? He's about the height of Wesley (a little taller) and the weight of Parker (there abouts LOL). I'm thinking he needs 130s, but will they be super long? (though I only plan to buy tshirts and shorts so that won't be as much of an issue, right?)

Sophie is 13 months, 30.5 inches and 22lbs. She is in an 80 now with some growing room. I'm thinking 80's will fit for the Spring/Summer and we'll need 90's for Fall. So far she has fit the Hanna size charts well...out of 60's at 6 months, out of "good fit" of 70's at 12 months, able to wear 80's at 10 months.

I love how Hanna's clothes look good a little big, fitting right, and just fitting...feel like I get some extra time out of them!

Best,
Mary

Sarah is one month shy of 4 years old. She is 37 inches tall and weights 28 pounds. She is wearing size 90 and has been since last Fall. Some 90's are getting short but 100's are too big. We just don't have the width to go up the next size. Last winter, I bought 100's on sale to wear this year. Looks like we have to wait until next year. We have sure gotten our use out of the clothes. Over 1 year!

Isabel is 13 months old, 19.5 pounds, 27 inches. She is wearing 70's right now with no intention of going to the next size until next Fall.

Great idea!

Sarah is about 23 pounds and probably 30-31 inches (I have to measure her again). She is mostly wearing 80s, though some of her 70s still fit. She has plenty of growing room in her 80s, on most things, so I'm trying to decide which size to order for summer. I have a bunch of 90s I ordered last year so I'll have to take those out and see how big they are. I did pull out one short sleeved playdress in a 90 that was barely larger than the 80 I got, but I think that was a fluke. I'd love to stick with the 90s to get more wear out of them, but don't want her to look ridiculous. Time to wash everything and see how it fits. . .

My DS is 30 inches & a bit over 20 lbs. Long & lean. He is in 80s zippers & wiggle pants/turtlesuits now, I never even considered 70s for wanting room to grow. They all fit him with tons of room to grow! I ordered 90s in Love a Bug on sale for fall/winter/spring based on me assuming the height we would need the room. I figure he'll grow at least 4 inches (not sure of course) between now & this time next year. I love that Hannas give you so much room to grow but it does make sizing a challenge. Seems whatever I do they will never fit him *perfectly*

[robmab719]

Avery is 33" tall and weighs 28lbs. She is currently wearing 80s that fit her perfectly, though the creepers are getting a little short in the torso. I'm leaning toward 90s for summer, but I may end up ordering 80s in capris/pants because I'm afraid the 90s will be too long.

For other reference, she currently wears 18-24m in Gymbo and Baby Gap, but I will probably buy 2T for summer.

[supersparkee]

At 15 months, Eva is now 33" tall and almost 24 lbs. We are in 80's right now and they fit very nicely with just a little bit more growing room. I am having a really hard time deciding between getting 80's or 90's for this summer as Eva has been growing in height faster than the growth charts (she went from 50th percentile at birth to 70th to 90th to 95th and now she is off the charts) but I don't know if this trend will continue! If next fall is anything like this past fall where we had warm weather well into November, I think I should opt for 90's so they will last until then. But I want her to be able to wear these items this spring as well so I'm really torn. I plan on getting primarily playdress/daydress outfits and fortunately, they are a bit forgiving on size either way!

My dd is 13m. She is 28.5" and 16lbs. Her 70's have some length room, but they are super baggy. She could put on 5 lbs and they would fit easy. Not sure about this summer, I may try 80's since they are dresses and then they may last 2 years. I guess I can always return them if they are too huge.

[khakismom]

Ellen is 19 months, 34.5" tall, 27 lbs. She is currently wearing 80s with a little wiggle room, except for her zippers and onesies which will be getting snug within 2 months. I am buying 90s for the summer.

Kathleen is almost 4 (how did that happen?! :o), 44" tall, 35 lbs--very tall and skinny. She started wearing 100s right around the time she turned 3, and can still wear them, but with no room for growth. I started buying her 110s last month and will be buying 110 for her this summer.

[macassi]

Abbie is 16 months, 30 inches, and 21 pounds. She wears an 80 with plenty of room to grow. She can still fit in her 70 zippers. There is no way that she will ever fit in a Hanna pant. The waists are just too big. Her 70 tights fit well.

Brendan is 4, 42 inches, and 43 pounds. He can wear both a 100 (fits well to small) and a 110 (fits a bit big) in tops and wears a 100 on bottom.

CJ is 6, 45 inches, and 45 pounds. He can wear both 110 (fits well to small) and a 120 in tops and longs johns but wears a 110 on bottom.

Honestly, I don't buy too many Hanna pants for my boys as they tend to go through knees quickly, and I'd hate to see the Hanna sweats destroyed. The each have a pair of double knee sweats that have held up, but I honestly prefer the Lands End sweats.

I thought I might come out of lurking to give my tall toddler's sizing. DD is 22 months old, 36" tall, and weights 30 lbs. It's hard to believe she was 5 weeks early. She is currently wearing size 90 Hanna dresses and leggings. There is still growing room in the size 90. Her size 90 long johns are getting too small. We stopped wearing zippers because they were getting too short in the stride.

DD's Love a bug jacket and white cardigan are size 80 with still room for growing. I found that Hanna outerwear is generously sized.
