Sizing on children's clothing is by height rather than age, and buying by birthday is the commonest reason a garment does not fit -- a 4T is for a child of about 102 cm whatever their age.

The flow rate of the teat matters more than the bottle, and it is the commonest bottle-feeding mistake: these ship with a medium flow teat suited to about three months and up, and a newborn given medium flow gulps, swallows air and gets exactly the colic the anti-colic valve exists to prevent.
Full details →Who the Carter's 100% Cotton Crewneck T-Shirt 3-Pack for Boys is for
Buy it if: Anyone buying by measured height rather than age, who washes cold.
Avoid it if: Anyone buying to age -- children of the same age vary by a full size or more.
Who the Philips Avent Natural Baby Bottle 260ml 4-Pack is for
Buy it if: Anyone bottle feeding who will match teat flow rate to the baby's age.
Avoid it if: Anyone using the supplied medium teat with a newborn -- buy slow flow separately.
