Cloth Diapering

BumGenuis question

We use BG OSs for daycare, and lately the teachers have been telling us that the diapers are leaking. They thought maybe the rise was too short. We had him on the middle size, so now we're doing the biggest.

My question is how long and what weight did you go to the biggest size for your LO? I feel like the middle setting should still fit him if this is actually going to last him to 35 pounds!

  • It might not be the rise, they might not be making it tight enough. I still have DS on the middle one and it sits just below his belly button when standing. Good luck

  • I think DD was about 25 lbs when we moved her up? She has a short rise, though, so she tends to fit into diapers longer than a kid who is a similar weight with a longer rise.

    They do tend to slim down as they get mobile, though, so it's not uncommon for kids to go up to the large rise setting for a while and then go back down to the medium rise setting once they start moving all over the place.

  • They also may have to be stripped. Cottonbabies recommends using bleach every month. We just did it over a year and have seen a big difference.
