Cloth Diapering

Even newborn dipes look huge!

I have a stack of GMD newborn size prefolds and a few RaR newborn covers, but they are laughably huge on my 7 lb skinny minnie. She can hardly move in them! The cover is supposed to fit starting at 4 lbs, but I have absolutely no idea how.

Maybe my expectations of a remotely trim fit are too high? Thoughts? Help?
