Cloth Diapering

Anyone using GDiapers?

I am using small gdiapers on my 3 week old, and it just seems like they are uncomfortable for him, and when I take them off, his bottom is red, with marks all over it from the creases. Anyone else experiencing this? It looks much more comfortable when I put him in a disposable. I spent sooo much money in all this gdiaper stuff Im reluctant to stop using them, but I might have to if I cant figure out whats wrong. Im thinking once he gets big enough for the medium and large sizes, they  might fit better? The small just seem like they arent a good fit, for a newborn body.

  • Are the red marks irritations or just like sheet or other marks from clothing? My guess would be that it's just like sheet marks.  Diapers fit better as babies chub up so I wouldn't throw in the towel just yet.

  • I didn't find the small to be a good fit for Dominic as a newborn.at.all.    We used tinyg's with him instead.   When he was around the 10lbs mark they fit him better.    The marks are most likely sheet marks....You can get creases with disposables and other types cloth diapers as well.

    Are they leaking a lot?     If they are not, the fit is probably fine.

     

  • Here's a pic of Baby Bee in her small gs at around the 9 pound mark. You can see they're still too big but she filled them out a bit better later.

  • Yeah, do you have the tiny G's?  Have those been working for you?  Maybe your LO is still a bit too small for the gPants.
