In between diaper sizes

DD is in between diaper sizes.  To me it seems like pampers run small and huggies run big.  Right now the huggies nb size are getting a liitle small on her (length wise, not width).  I had a package of pampers size 1 from a gift that I just opened and they are huge on her!  Does anyone know if any other brand fits/works as an in between size?

    I have no suggestions but I'm dittoing everything here. We are going through the same exact thing!

  • We use Target brand diapers. I switched from NB to size 1 before she fit into a size 1, but was too big for NB.  I swear she grew into size 1s two days after the switch.

    Now she's almost ready for size 2s!

  • We had pampers nb size swaddlers in the hospital so we bought some when we got home but they were really tight in the legs and our chunky guy was leaking out of them every time. So we got earth's best diapers size 1 and eventually they fit him pretty well. At first they leaked too though when he was between sizes :/ We didn't try other ones but these are pretty good and you can get them on amazon.

  • We're in between sizes right now too. We have NB Swaddlers, but they seem so tight on her, I would think they're uncomfortable, but the size 1's of the Seventh Generation diapers we bought are a little on the big side. Luckily, we haven't had a blow out yet. ::knock on wood:: We're switching back and forth until she really doesn't fit into the NBs anymore or we run out.
  • Going through that now. NB pampers swaddlers are too small and size 1 are too big. I'm just working with the size 1s. I've had blowouts the past 2 days in the 1s but was also having then in NB. Maybe I need a different brand in general.

  • I've been having the same problem. She outgrew Huggies NB, and now the Huggies size 1 are too big yet :( boo.

    My thought is when it doubt, size up. V is almost 9 lbs, so we switched her to size 1 pampers. They are a little big, but we just fasten them tightly. I'd rather her have more coverage than less in the NBs and have a blow out. We tried the Huggies as well, but they weren't a good fit. My understanding is that Huggies are better on chubbier babies and Pampers are better on not as chubby babies.
