Growing out of NBs

PolythenePam

Can anyone tell me about how old/big their LO was when they grew out of NB sized prefolds (or fitteds)?  I am definitely including them in my stash, because I know if I don't, I'll kick myself.  However, DD was 9.0 lbs born on her due-date, and I'm sure I'm cooking a big one again.  Just curious as to how quickly others moved through that size.

We are on the fence between newborn and small prefolds right now... Newborns are a bit small and smalls are a bit big. LO was 7lbs 14oz at birth, and I think just between 10 and 11 lbs now. She's long and skinny, if that helps... If your LO has a chubbier belly it might be hard to get the prefolds to fit around them!

DS is still in his infant size prefolds (at 6 months) both the osocozys and tiny tots (dsq). They were quite bulky on him when he was new (7lbs 7oz), but they're just now getting hard to snappi (16lbs). The absorbancy is still good for 2 hours during the day, although I've recently started putting him in a gmd red to catch the first morning pees.

In contrast, he was leaking out of KL0s at 7 weeks.

we use KL0s. My first was in them 5.5mos. My second moved out of them at just over 3mos, though he could still fit in them now at 4mos.
