Size 1 diapers that run small?

We've loved the Pampers Swaddlers but Evan has outgrown the newborn size and the size 1s are huge on him. I tried Huggies and hated them. Tried Pampers Baby Dry size 1s and they are huge as well. Anyone know of some size 1 diapers that run small so that we can make it through this "transition" stage? HELP!! Tongue Tied

    We had this problem too.

    Target brand size 1s and Huggies NB size were both great for our "in transition" stage. DD has a long torso and a little bit of a belly, but her legs are short and she's really skinny through her hips.

    I will say something you won't want to hear--try Huggies. I don't like them, either, but they were the best for DS while he was between Pampers newborn and Pampers size 1. Huggies newborn run a little bigger than Pampers newborn and Huggies size 1 run a little smaller than Pampers size 1. It's really weird.

    Good luck.

    Unless you're getting blowouts, I'd just stick with the 1's for a little while longer.  By small packs one at a time to make sure you're not left with a ton of them.  The next size up always looks huge compared to what your LO is wearing.  Also, the regular Swaddlers stretch way more then the sensitive ones.

    The only sz ones that I've found that run small are huggies. HTH.

    I had this problem but I just used the size one. I'm still using them. He grew into them more.

    I would look for a brand that is big in newborns rather than a size that is small in 1's.

    Huggies run big as well as Target.  So try them in their newborn sizes.  I wasn't a fan of Target diapers though - their tabs didn't stick too well.

    Then after you are done with size 1 and you still need a transition diaper, they make size 1-2's for this reason.  I don't know why they don't do this with all sizes.
