newborn prefold tips

mngildersleeve

I love using prefolds on my LO. She's 3 weeks old today and we finally had our first poop in a prefold instead of a pocket. I have been using the bikini twist fold (I think that's the name) because she has chunky thighs. Well when she pooped it came out the sides a little bit and got on the cover. Not a huge deal but I would like to prevent it in the future so any tips?? Maybe an adjustment to the fold around the thighs or a different fold that's good for chunky thighs.

Is it possible the pre folds are not fitting properly the angel wing fold always worked for us and our chunky thighed baby

We have been using the jelly roll fold and not a leak yet!

The jelly roll fold and a Snappi contains runny newborn poo the best.

We did the jelly roll fold and then did the bikini twist. Helped contain the poo around the bum but still got the trimness from the bikini twist.

Research a couple and try them out. Each fold works differently for every baby. Try out the angel wing and jelly roll to start. And make sure to use a Snappi or pins.
