What size shoes does your 8 mo. old wear??

Going to bring some shoes on our visit trip, but not sure what size to buy. I'm thinking 4.5-5 maybe?

I think every baby is different at 8 months my son was just getting into a 4 and my daughter was only wearing a 2. Sara is 13.5 months now and is just starting to wear a size 3. They were both at 75% for height and 50% for weight. I would bring robeez or something similar that goes by ages rather than exact size.

Our daughter was still wearing a size 1 at 8 months.

She is now 14 1/2 months and in a solid 3...

At that age, 2 or 3 for our daughter. She wasn't in a 4 until she turned one. And she was wearing a 5 until just a little bit ago (she's two now).

My 21 mo daughter is in a 5.5 herself! Maybe you could get someone to measure his feet and let you know. Otherwise, you'll find out when you get there!

When we went to visit our DD was 9 1/2 months old and 18.8 pounds, and she wore a size 3, if that helps. Have fun shoe shopping!

At 8 months my peanut weighed 15 lbs, and wore a 1 or 2 shoe. Tiny toes!!!! Now at 16 months, he is almost in a 3, but not completely.

When we visited out daughter, she was 20 months old, and only wore a size 3 shoe. I was able to find out prior to our visit from our foster mother, but I still didn't buy any because I thought that just sounded way too small!! We ended up going to mall down there and buying her some then. That way, she was actually there to try them on. If you're staying at the Marriott, the mall is within walking distance. (If you're allowed to leave the hotel. Some agencies won't let you.)
