I swear I don't know what "normal" size DS is because he is a different size in every brand. He is a little over 6 months and this is what he wears:

Carters 6 months
Baby Gap 3-6 months
Ralph Lauren 6-9 months
Old Navy 3-6 months
The Childrens Place 6-9

I mean, what is going on, this is making it so difficult to buy him clothes for the next season or even know what to take out of the attic next and put away because I had everything that we were given separated into bins in 6 month increments but he will fit into half and I'll have to store the other half then clean out half of what's out... blah blah blah, it's a pain in the rear why can't they be consistent with sizes!

Same here and people think I am nuts - LOL.

DS is 5 months and every store you mentioned, he wears a different size as well.

yes! DD is 19 months and wears everything from size 18 months - 3T !!! I really have no clue what sizes to buy for spring/summer. I think I'll go bigger maybe some 2ts and 3ts. Its crazy the way the brands are so different but I guess that happens with adult clothing too.

Yup. I have this problem too. It drives me nuts - so hard to shop online! Also, I find sizes to vary within stores even - My DD wears two different sizes at the gap depending on the item!!!

Carters was always right on with my kids and Children's place always ran small! and Gap was always a little big...so as long as it is consistent - I guess you get used to it! HAHA!

You simply have to just decide when they are ready to "move up" deal with some smaller/ looser clothes and thats it. Too many sizes will drive you nuts!

at some point you will figure out the couple of stores that fit you dc best and stick with them.

My dd can range from a 4,5, or 6 at this point and it is frustrating, especially when trying to figure out sizing for spring and summer clothing!

DS is 20 months and in 3T, and now moved up to 4T in most shirts. Chat Icon 4T pants are a little long.

I find Old Navy to run small, so I'm surprised that your DS can still fit into their small sizes!

Having the same experience with my granddaughter. She's going to be 4 mos. next week. She's around 15-16 lbs. She just fits into 3 mo Carters sleep n plays and other things from Carters. Other brands........some 6 mos, some 9 mos. She was given some things from Target (Just one you by Carters) We just tried some things on her today and I have to try to get 2 outfits in 24 mos!! Oh my goodness, its crazy.
