If your LO is in size 4 diapers

How big is your LO? DS is 23.5lbs and about 29.5" long. We use Pampers and I know the weight range for size 4 is 22-37lbs. That just seems like a huge range to me!

Size 3's still fit, but they're getting a big snug and I'll be needing to buy diapers here in the next week.

    At his 9mos wellness check last week, he was 19lbs12oz and almost 28" long.  He's been in Size 4 for awhile now.  Like your DS, the 3s were getting snug around his waist.

    He is around the same size as your LO, a little bigger. I dont think he will stay in size 4 until 37 pounds mainly because he has incredibly chunky thighs and some serious junk in his trunk. But they do fit well around his waist.

    Burke wears size 4's at night but I need to buy diapers and I'm thinking I'm gonna just buy size 4's instead of more 3's.  Burke weighs just over 20lbs.  FWIW, we've been using both Huggies and Luvs, I ditched Pampers quite awhile ago.

    My guy is in size 4.  we are huggies fan's though.  he is 23lbs and 30.5 inches.  I am stocking up on size 5 now too...  Cuz he is growing like a weed.  I am not sure about the weight thing for pampers.  I dont look at that on diapers box.  i go by how they fit DS.

    DD is around 25lbs. and has been in a size 4 for a few months now.

    I always start the next size up around 2 lbs below the weight range on that size...if that makes sense ;) So if size 4 range is 22-37lbs, then DD has been in them since she was around 20 lbs. With both girls, I've just found that for fit, that seemed to work best for them.

    I think they have such a wide weight range to accommodate for different shapes. I'm pretty sure size 5 range starts way below 37lbs.

    At night, DD is in size 5 to prevent leaks.

    DD was 21 lbs last time I weighed her a few weeks ago. She's been in size 4 for quite a while, because her legs are super chunky. She wasn't even close to the starting weight when I put her in them.

    My 2.5 y/o has been in size 4's for like a year already. He has really only gained about 2 lbs from age 1 to now.

    I only use disposables at bedtime, but we use huggie's goodnights size 4's. Ds is 24lbs...he's been in 4's for a while. He needs the absorbency.

    The bath scale said 20.8 lbs, but I'm not sure how reliable  it is.  We're in Size 4 Baby Dry's.  The Size 3's were getting snug so we moved up.

    Wesley is 19.4lbs and wears sz 3 during the day, but size 4 at night - he needs the extra absorbency.
