How to Choose the Right Size Kids Pajamas
Share
Getting the right size pajamas for your child makes a big difference in comfort — especially for sleep. Here's a simple guide to finding the perfect fit with Dottie Lou.
Do Dottie Lou Pajamas Run True to Size?
Yes. Dottie Lou pajamas run true to size. The best approach is to order the size that matches your child's current age. If your child is right between two sizes, we recommend sizing up for a little extra room to grow.
What Sizes Does Dottie Lou Carry?
Dottie Lou carries one of the widest size ranges of any boutique kids pajama brand — from Newborn all the way through 16Y:
- Baby: NB, 3M, 6M, 9M, 12M
- Toddler: 18M, 2T, 3T, 4T, 5T
- Kids: 6Y, 7Y, 8Y, 10Y, 12Y, 14Y, 16Y
This means you can keep dressing your child in Dottie Lou from their very first days as a newborn right through their teenage years.
Which Collections Come in Which Sizes?
The Ocean Wonders baby footie sets are available in NB through 12M. The Global Dreamer, Classic Collar, and Contrast Piping collections include toddler and kids sizes from 18M through 16Y, depending on the style.
Will They Shrink After Washing?
No. Every Dottie Lou item goes through a special pre-wash and pre-dry process before it reaches you, so the size you order is the size it stays — wash after wash.
