Newborns in cloth?

kmw2g10 · Apr 3rd, 2012, 16:17 PM

Hello! Has anyone got any photos of their newborns in cloth? Would be really useful to see how the brands fit on a newborn, I know they are all different but loads say from newborn but look massive when they arrive!

Also love looking at teeny tiny fluff!

Thank you!

For a newborn, you'd be better looking at sized options. Most one-size nappies say 'from birth/from 8lbs' etc but I don't think that's realistic for most brands. Newborn babies are a different shape to older babies of the same weight, until around 4-8 weeks I'd say. So a 9lb newborn is a very different shape to a 9lb eight week old - a newborn's legs are often a lot skinnier in proportion to their body than an older baby. So I wouldn't look at OS options for before 4 weeks, although there are some babies who will be fine in OS nappies from birth and a couple of brands that are better than others.

I tried my cloth nappies on my newborn bean, and they leaked

her legs were too skinny, I tried flips, and bumgenious one size, and bambino mio newborn sized nappies. S I waited unitil she got bigger and at 5 weeks and 10lbs her cloth fit her great and don't leak!
