CD mamas come in!

altreu · May 2011

We use a variety of CDs for O. I have no complaint with the diapers themselves. However, they make O's butt HUGE! So his pants are tight around the butt and crotch and too long through the legs. Are there any pants out there designed for CD babies? Or have you found any brands that seem more generous in the rear?

I don't know about pants designed for CD babies, I just bought a size larger and would roll up the pant legs. However over time my son has thinned out and I could use the same pants w/o rolling them up.

Ditto. the pants I bought bigger to fit G's cloth diaper booty, he was able to wear the following season, in underwear. It was quite handy!

There are some brands that are wider and shorter, like Gap and ACP clothes.

EJ currently is in 3T pants from Gap (only place I can find that has full elastic waists). Look for pants that have elastic waist bands NOT the hidden/internal elastic aka adjustable waists. These run smaller in the bottom/waist and then you have to get bigger sizes that then need more rolling.

Also, hemming is super easy if you choose to fold up the current real hem then tripple stitch the gathered part then cut the excess off. thisway you cant tell they have been hemmed and they actually don't fray or pull. I do this for his shorts.
