what size diapers is your baby in?

angierosebkr · July 2014

My son was 6lbs 11oz and 19 1/2 inches at birth. He is very long now at 7 weeks. He has his 2 month checkup on july 22nd. He was only in size nb diapers for 2 1/2 weeks because he was pooping out the sides and up the back. So we have been in size 1s for about 5 weeks.
What size diapers is your LO in? Both of my other LOs were very chunky and long, but Brennan is long and not as chubby as they were. Is there a better diaper for long & lean babies?

DS is 9 weeks and is 11lbs and 24". We are transitioning from 1s to 2s now, because he's been leaking out the 1s lately.

The diapers are big around the waste so I just make sure to pull tight!

angierosebkr · July 2014

We've been using pamper swaddlers and huggie snug and dry and the huggies are seeming too short, like when he grows a teensy bit taller he will probably start pooping up the back ( he's gone ftom little poops everytime he nurses, to huge poops 2-3 times a day.) But they're still big around the waist!

LO is in size 1 diapers for now. We are using Pampers.

sarthepandabear · July 2014

My guy is in size 1 at almost 13lbs. I think we'll be sizing up in another week or two.

lauralou3x3 · July 2014

My LO is 9lbs @ 6 weeks but is long and lean. She can still use newborn but have switched her to size 1 since I had those.

usernewname · July 2014

Ds is 9 weeks and 12-11 pounds.

He's in size 2 up & up diapers and newborn cloth still.

I just started uping the absorbency as flats weren't enough.

yogasailmomma · July 2014

We used newborns till about 7 weeks. She is now in size one at nine weeks and is probably going to be in them for awhile. She's 12lbs and 24 inches. We only use pampers, so far she's gotten a rash from all other brands. Baby girls got an expensive bum ;-)

bridetobe9132013 · July 2014

My lo is also long and skinny. She was 8lbs 2oz and 22in. She is finishing up her huggies size 1 and then we are moving to costco 1-2, which fit her great.

Xath · July 2014

He's outgrowing diapers faster than we can use them. I'm not even using cloth right now, because he's going to outpace the disposables we have before we can use them all. I've already given up on the Kirkland 1-2's, as they're laughably small now. I'm finishing up the rest of the Pampers 2s we got as gifts, but the next box I buy will be size 3. He's gained over a pound and a half in the last week and was 16lbs yesterday. His almost 3 year old brother is only 29 lbs. I swear they'll be in the same size soon at this rate.

Junebug060609 · July 2014

11w. She is nearly done with 1's in pampers.

ho11yday · July 2014

We switched to size 1 at 4 weeks. They were big and nb still fit but I ran out of nb and didn't want to buy more. We'll be in size 1 probably up to 10-12 weeks, so at least another 2 to 4 weeks.

Currently using up and up, which works for my chunky leg baby. But ds1 was so skinny, only thing that worked was pampers.

letal316 · July 2014

My LO could still use nb diapers but we started to buy level 1 this week. She's 9wk2d and 9lbs 11oz and 22". We use pampers.

Mrs_D_in_KY · July 2014

DS is 9 weeks old today and weighs 8 lbs, so he's still in the newborn diapers. However he was born at 34 weeks gestation, so he was smaller than most newborn babies.

This. Pampers swaddlers are still working for us in size 1.

LunaBug924 · July 2014

She's almost 10 weeks, 11lbs as of Tuesday and still fits comfortably in Pampers size 1.

chillypenguin · July 2014

DD is almost 12 weeks old, 14 lbs 3 oz and she is in size 2s. She was in NB for maybe 2 weeks, then size 1 until maybe 8 weeks old.

babyaotw · July 2014

My LO is 11.5 pounds and 9 weeks. He still fits into his newborn cloth.

sparklingdiamond · July 2014

DS is almost 9 weeks and is 11 lb 13 oz and 24 in long and is in size 1. Newborn didn't fit him for long...maybe a week or two?

tbiscuit18 · July 2014

DS is 8 wks tomorrow, 13lbs and in size 2. But I've got some size 1 that I'm trying to use up! So making them work!

DBonfante · July 2014

LO switched to size 2s around 5 1/2 weeks. Last appt. He was 11 pounds 23 inches. I'm sure he is over 12 pounds now and the size 2s are still on his tush.

ksyknelvr73 · July 2014

DS is about 13 1/2 lbs and he is still wearing the 1's but we are almost out of that size, so once that happens we will be moving to size 2's.

gypsymystic · July 2014

LO was in newborn diapers for 2 weeks-ish. He was born just shy of 9lbs and 20' inches long. He is now over 21.5 inches long, and I estimate 13lb at 7 weeks and some change. He is chunky though, and the size 1 diapers are almost too tight. We got a big box of them at the baby shower from a co-worker of mine and will switch to size 2 next (within the week).

britab · July 2014

Size 1. We have huggies, pampers and up&up. I like huggies the least though.

QOTR · July 2014

My guy is over 13 pounds now (guessing - he was @ 12, 7 two weeks ago). He's currently in size 1 prefolds, which are supposed to be good up to 15 pounds, but things are starting to get tight.

alyssajanell5 · July 2014

2 months today and we started using size 2 two days ago. They are the target brand.

Jillzy86 · July 2014

My little guy is 24in and 12lbs he is in honest company size 2 diapers and no leeks yet. We use cloth when we are at home but we are using disposables on our vacations.

yepyepsms · July 2014

9 wks, size 2 pampers swaddlers, 14#s, 24 inch

haylo33 · July 2014

LO is in size 1 at 8 weeks. I'm guessing he weighs 12 pounds. Size 1 huggies are getting too small. Pampers size 1 still fit but I only see that for another week or 2.

dogsombrero · July 2014

Dude is 8w and about 15# and 25in. He carries all his weight in his upper body and has been using size 1 since birth.

We are transitioning to size 2 now because he's leaking out the sides even though they aren't even close to too small around the waist he's just got a voracious bathroom manner. I guess I'll be cinching his poor chicken legs in size 2s.

momthatlifts · July 2014

Nb until I think after her months check up when she was 9lb 14th. She is 8 weeks in size 1

Meg&Austin · July 2014

Mila was born at 5lb 10.2 oz we just moved from newborns. Size 1s still seem big on her. She is 11w and two weeks ago was 9lb 9oz.

deanna1313 · July 2014

My little guy is transitioning from 1's to 2's. He's 6 weeks today. He was 8 lbs 10 oz and 21 1/2 inches at birth. He is long and the thighs are getting a little chunky!

elizabe519 · July 2014

My LO was 10lbs 5oz and 22" at his one month app. 2 weeks ago and we just moved from NB to 1's in the last week... I am pretty sure he's over 12lbs by now and the 1's better fit for awhile longer because I just found a bunch more hidden in his room today and I already had a ton.

jjones59 · July 2014

We are in size 1. Only in newborns less than two weeks. At his 1 month check up he was 22 inches 9 lbs 6 oz. he was 7 lbs 8 oz at birth. He'll be 6 weeks on Monday.

jenb_99 · July 2014

7 weeks yesterday and probably around 13# and 24 in. We have a handful of size 1's left and then we're moving up to size 2. She's already been in size 2 at night for a couple of weeks.

We EBF and use Luvs. She has constant wet diapers all day and night and explosive watery poop every 1-2 days. No leaks so far except for one up-the-back blowout in the car seat.

hbird0723 · July 2014

LO is 8 weeks and 12.5 lbs she is in a 1 but we are using 2's at night because she was having blow outs in the 1's so she will probably be in 2's all the time very soon.

Edit: diaper brand- pampers

CMDR513 · July 2014

10 weeks here. She weighs 10.5 lbs. We are transitioning her from Pampers 1s to 2s.

Dplusbsquared · July 2014

My "LO" (he's not little) weighs 18# 1oz at his 2 month checkup. He's one chunky monkey! He was never in NB and was only in size 1 for 2 weeks. He's in size 3 during the day and 4 at night.

angierosebkr · July 2014

Anyone had any luck with luvs or any off brand? As soon as we run out of the size 1 pamper swaddlers and huggies snug and dry we will be buying size 2s.

springbeduk2 · July 2014

DD is thin and was only 8lb 15 oz at 2 month appt so maybe just over 9 lbs now but tallish (only measured at 22 inches I'm sure she's more - 0-3 month onesies are getting to be kinda too short). She's in size 1 earth's best for disposables and has been a few weeks since she started having some leaks from Pampers swaddlers NB. I still have to overlap the closure tabs but then they fit well even around her rather thin legs.

In cloth she's in small covers (thirsties size 1, blueberry mini, and small rumparoos) with newborn size prefolds or workhorse fitteds. Workhorses and covers still have to be snapped as tight as they go or just one snap away from tightest. Or at least it seems they do - the elastic seems too tight in spots but if I do it looser there are gaps and the front waist part sags.
