Just curious what size your LOs are currently using.
E is in 4s, but DH wants to move him up to 5s at least at night for extra absorbency. The 5s seems a little loose around his legs to me, but didn't leak when we tried them last night, so I guess we'll stick with them at night. But now I don't know whether to move him up for daytime too once we run out of our current stash of 4s.
LO is still in 3s lol been considering moving to 4 but he really only uses disposables at his grandparents or when I haven't had a chance to wash his cloth diapers so might be a while before we run out of what we have
E is in 4's....but I am noticing that I am having issues getting them on her well, but that could also be because she is such a wiggle worm at diaper changes. I may get my next pack at 5's and see how they are....
We've been in 4s for a few months now. We use Luvs 4s during the day and 4 Swaddlers at night. They seem to work for us right now. We have a box of 5s ready for the next growth spurt.
What are your lo's weighing? I have no idea what size disposables lo is in since we cloth but we're going to Hawaii for a week and using sposies and just realized I don't know what size I should get him
We have a check up in a couple days, so I can let you know for sure then. I'd guess he weighs around 20-21lbs and should be about 29-30 inches tall now, based on where he was in June. We switched to 4s a couple months ago, I think, and the 4s seems to still fit him well, when he lies still enough for me to fasten them evenly. The 5s are a bit roomy, but not leaking with pee (he hasn't pooped in them yet). He might fit them better in another month or so.
Can you try a small package of 4s or borrow a couple from a friend to see how they fit? Seems like that's the most common size at this age.
LO currently weighs 19.5 lbs. and is approximately 28 inches tall. She has been in Earth's Best size 4s for a while. I think we're going to switch to size 5s when we finish up the full case of 4s that we currently have - it can be a struggle to get the tabs around her tummy, especially right after she eats! I'm getting worried that we're going to run out of sizes soon, but it's good to hear that others are in 4s/5s as well.
Thanks guys. My lo is still on the first rise snaps of a lot of his cloth diapers, he's all legs. But yea maybe I'll try so e of a friends and see. Last time a used sposies he was sick a few months ago and I think they were size three, fit fine but he leaked out of them overnight. So maybe 4 for absorbancy now
My boys are 20ish and 22ish pounds and in the neighborhood of 30in. They are not long for the infant seat. I know most of you prob switched already but I was holding out until they became full time walkers. They're pretty much there, so I think it's time for the switch.
Married DH : 7/7/12; 3 fur babies (2 dogs and 1 cat) DS born 9/3/13; DD born 7/22/15; LO due 5/28/18 FS (age 5) and FD (age 2) to become AS/AD very soon!
Re: diaper size
My big one moved up to 5s at 18mo and then stayed in 5s until we PT.
