I am not sure exactly how much my son weighs right now - but he seems to fit ok in the size 5 pampers but the size 5 Luvs seem to be snug around the waist? Am I imagining it?
I think Luvs are a full size smaller than Pampers. We've been using Target's Up and Up brand and the size 5's are just like the Pampers size 5's and work great! Under $14 for 70 size 5's!
Re: Does LUVS run smaller than Pampers?
I think so. When DS was in Size 3 Pampers, he was in Size 4 Luvs.
They run smaller than the Pampers Baby Dry diapers, but I think they are comparable to cruisers.
