Cloth Diapering

How old was your baby when OS fit?

I don't plan on buying sized diapers.  I am wondering at what age your babies fit into an one size cd. 

Re: How old was your baby when OS fit?

  • DD is 7 weeks old, and no sign of them fitting yet for a while... I expect at least another month...maybe more... but she's smaller than average...

  • It is less about age and more about weight.  My daughter started fitting into OS diapers between 4-6 weeks when she was around 11 pounds.

    I think the general census is around 11-12 pounds is when OS really starts fitting.

  • I began putting my DD in them at 2 weeks and I felt like they fit fine.  We use BumGenius 3.0.  The velcro worked better at that point then snaps did.
  • DD was 6 weeks old (~10 pounds) when we first started using the OS diapers.  Some didn't fit well until a few weeks later, like BG Elementals (which are our favourites now).

  • I'm the only person who ever says this, but OS dipes fit my baby right when she came home from the hospital. Se weighed 8 lbs 1 oz at birth and 7#7 when we left the hospital. The diapers were very bulky but worked fine.

  • 10lbs over here.  10lbs-12lbs seems to be the norm.  It just depends on the size of your baby's thighs.  If they are "Plumper" they will fit well sooner.

  • Around 5 months which was about 14 lbs. I have a small baby.

     

    (and makinroom, I'm dying from cuteness over your baby....ahhhh!!!)

  • Around 8 weeks, she was about 12-13lbs.
  • At 3 weeks my Flips, fuzzibuns and BG 4.0 fit her fine.  She was 10 pounds at a month old.

    My Alva's still don't fit at 8 weeks and 12ish pounds.

  • I've got a long time until Ms. B fits in them. She's 9 lbs. 12 oz. this week, but has the smallest butt, hips, and legs ever. She looks like a frog when she's naked. We're one snap bigger than the smallest size in her newborn GMD workhorses. So I bet she won't be in to her OS for a long time.

  • It depends on the brand. My Softbums are sized using the leg elastic and a toggle to tighten it, so they have fit my newborn from day 1. He's a little peanut too, 6 lbs, 12 oz at birth, 8 lbs, 4 oz now. I don't even have them on the tiniest setting and I've had no leaks that I can't chalk up to user error. I love them!

    Depends on the brand. At 2.5 months and 12+ pounds, some still don't fit. Others have fit from almost the beginning (7lbs 3 oz). Every brand seems so different.

  • I started using them around 4 weeks and 8lbs, but had a few leaks. He is 8 weeks now and 10.5lbs, they fit much better now but still have occasional leaks when DH changes him.
