My son was 10 pounds when he was born and he is 23 pounds now that he is seven months old. While he is also long, it is still difficult to buy clothes for him that fit -- specifically pants like jeans or khakis that have zippers and snaps. In the last couple of weeks, I have had to return numerous pairs of pants to the stores at which I bought them because they were too tight on my son's tummy. Finally, though, I discovered that the baby pants at Target run a little larger in the waist. So if you have a baby who is pleasantly plump, you might want to try Target for those hard to fit clothes!
