RE:Be Honest! Traveling with Baby....
If you’re flying pack extra, cheap sleepers for those plane poops! Planes are cold so you need full footed sleepers. Size up in diapers. IDK if it’s just my kids but they get mega poops on planes. I thought I was being ridiculous the first time we traveled (baby 1 was 7m) because I packed 5 sleepers in my carry on and threw 3 of them away bc of blowouts.

1 year old peeing through EVERY DIAPER
For months now, our son has been peeing through every single diaper brand we buy during the night. We have tried the Kirkland brand, huggies, pampers pullups, diaper pads that you put into diapers to help absorb more pee. When he wakes up in the middle of the night to eat (because he still doesnt sleep through the night) to change his diaper, he becomes WIDE AWAKE. so it's either we have him wide awake for hours or we put him back to sleep in his crib and have his belly COVERED in pee from the leak which i feel AWFUL about. It doesnt bother him in the least, but that makes me feel like a bad mom. I dont know what else to try. He wears size 5 diapers ( he's in the 4th percentile if that matters) and he has a big belly. Can someone PLEASE suggest SOMETHING????? submitted by /u/Guppygus to r/NewParents [link] [comments]

Newborn disposable diaper size comparison
Putting this here for anyone else looking at newborn diapers and don’t know where to start… I bought five brands bc I wanted to see what the sizing and features were like. Expecting twins soon so figured knowing that we’ll be using lots of diapers there is a high probability that we’ll go through them all and nothing will be wasted. The Parasol, Healthybaby, and Coterie are very similarly sized and were the smallest, but the Parasol was the only one of the three smallest to offer the elastic blowout protection. Freestyle seems particularly large/wide for a newborn diapers and Kudos does not officially have a newborn so this is their size 1. Also last picture includes a Coterie N, Kudos size 1, Freestyle N, and Coterie 1 just to see the difference. Can’t speak to how they function yet (we used Coterie with our last baby but hoping to find something a bit less expensive now we’ll be diapering two) but hope this helps! submitted by /u/juniper_684 to r/moderatelygranolamoms [link] [comments]

Best Diaper size to buy?
My friends are having a baby and I did buy a couple different sizes of diapers but I'm feeling generous and thinking about buying them some more. When I picked up the new born and size 1, the clerk explained to me that size one is better. Currently they are due in 2 months and they had an ultra sound a few days ago and the baby is currently 3 pounds. So far there hasn't been much complications and I presume the child more than likely won't be just 3lbs by the time of arrival so should I buy more newborns or size 1? submitted by /u/Lastbourne to r/AskParents [link] [comments]

in between diaper sizes… what worked for you?
we’re in that weird in-between stage where our baby girl is too big for newborn diapers but still somehow too small for size 1 newborns are getting tight and leaving marks, but size 1 just don’t fit right yet and we keep getting gaps/leaks we’ve tried a few different brands thinking it was just sizing differences, and even tested out some reusables, but nothing has really been a perfect fit the only thing that’s kind of working right now is layering a disposable with a reusable over it, but it makes her so bulky that she ends up sitting at a weird angle and just looks uncomfortable i feel like we’re overcomplicating something that should be simple, but also don’t want to keep wasting money trying everything did anyone else go through this stage? what actually worked for you? TLDR baby is between newborn and size 1 diapers—everything either too tight or too loose, current solution is bulky and awkward, looking for advice submitted by /u/TheLynchMethod to r/NewParents [link] [comments]

What size diapers should a 2 month old wear?
My baby is now 2 months old and 2 weeks. Sometimes i feel like size 1 diapers are too small but when I look at other babies, they’re all wearing size 2-3 but they’re 6 months. My baby isn’t chunky i’d say she’s 12 pounds she’s just tall. I don’t know her exact weight since her 2 month appointment is next week.

AITA for deleting and wanting no contact with my SIL after she gifted us every diaper size, a $200 swing and got everything for a onesie making station for our baby shower?
I (24F) and my husband (23M) had a baby in October last year. The birth was as traumatic as the whole pregnancy. From the beginning I felt something was wrong and this being our first baby I worried more than I probably should have, but because I have PCOS we never thought I could get pregnant anyway and we were preparing to never having kids of our own. After getting that positive pregnancy test we scheduled an appt and everything went fine, until, we were at the 20 weeks appt and our Dr told us that I needed an emergency surgery if I didn’t want our baby to be born premature or loose him. After crying and Drs explaining things I don’t even remember till this day, I had a cerclage put in, which basically prevents my short cervix from dilating before 37 weeks and having a miscarriage. This was just the beginning. After that I couldn’t stand for even short periods of time or force my body to do anything that required lifting more than 20 pounds. I felt useless at home and at work. Later on, I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and had to be put on 2 different types of insulin. I had to inject some in the morning, after breakfast, lunch and supper and before bed, not to mention avoid sweets at all costs. For our baby shower we had something small because we had bought everything we needed with exception of some things. My SIL got us 1 box of every size diapers, a big box of wipes, a mamaroo swing (around $200) and on top of that she bought everything for a onesie making station and her husband cooked a brisket, which they also paid for. She really went all out. We were very thankful. Because we were never able to regulate my sugars I ended up being induced at 37 weeks. When my baby finally came and they put him on my chest he didn’t cry and I had around 20 people in my room carrying for me and him trying to figure out what was going on. When they finally got him to cry, I was able to take him with me to my recovery room and hold him for the first time. It was the most beautiful moment of my life. When feeding time came around, nurses checked his sugars and his sugars were very low. They told me to feed him again and that they would check his sugars again in 1 hour. After they left, my husband gets up his chair and says “I’ll be right back”. As I sat there taking everything in when he comes back and right behind him is my SIL. I had no words. I had given birth almost 2 hours ago and was in no condition or mood for visitors, something me and my husband had talked about. I even had my parents, who flew all the way from Puerto Rico stay in a hotel until we were home from the hospital and ready for visitors. She walked right passed me and sat on a chair staring at our newborn. She had driven 2 hours and didn’t notify us once. From the pressure I said she could hold him, but inside I was impatient. She even took pictures of him, something I didn’t agree with. The nurses came back in and checked his sugars, unfortunately his sugars weren’t up so they took him to the NICU right after that. I didn’t even got to hold my son again before they took him, the nurse gave him to me for 1 minute so I could say goodbye. I was heartbroken and this complete stranger had held my son more than I had. She left and me and my husband had my very awaited conversation. He said he was sorry and that she never told him she was coming, she just decided it was okay to show up unannounced and we would be okay. When I was finally able to go to the NICU I had a Dr greet me and explain what was going on. My son had a traumatic birth. His shoulder had gotten stuck, he was very bruised and he was put in an incubator because he wasn’t able to hold his temp. No one really knew what was going on. Maybe a day had passed and my husband calls asking where I was (he had driven 1 hour and 30 minutes home to feed our dogs) I was at the NICU. They had done ultrasounds on him, checked his sugars every hour and done a bunch of lab work; they still didn’t know what he actually had going on. The doctors kept running test after test because something wasn’t adding up. I was devastated, all I could do was cry and pray that God would shed some light to the situation. When my husband comes in, he’s a little too quiet, so I asked him if everything was okay, to what he says “My sister is here”. I tried to argue I wanted to stay with my son, but he convinced me saying I couldn’t be at the NICU all day and night, that I needed someone to talk to. I agreed. I went to my room. I still hadn’t even showered, brushed my hair or my teeth. My priorities in that moment were my son and his well being. She came in and to my surprise, she had brought her husband and her 4 children. I felt like we were at the zoo, but my son was the main attraction. Her husband, my husband and I talked for a little while, but she stayed quiet. It was obvious she didn’t care about me or my husband. She wanted us to offer to take them to the NICU to see him, but I was not going to offer something I wasn’t comfortable with, plus the NICU is for babies who are sick, babies that need 24/7 attention to get better and 8 people in that small room was not in my mind at the moment, specially with them wanting to hold him. After 15 minutes they left and after a few hours she deleted my husband (her brother) from Snapchat. She was just being petty. My husband reached out to her, but didn’t get a response. A few days had passed and we had gotten some information about my son. He was no longer in an incubator, but he was on IV fluids and sodium because he couldn’t keep anything down. They did more ultrasounds, x rays and a CT scan. They had found a little vein on his brain that could bleed out and harm him. His platelets were down (this helps cloth the blood) so this was even more terrifying than not knowing what was going on. Also, his spleen and kidneys were enlarged and were pressing his intestines making him throw up. No news from my SIL until maybe day 4. She had sent my husband a long ass paragraph that summarized in “You guys were disrespectful and I just wanted to be there for you guys because no one was there for me”. That’s when I learned about postpartum rage :) After a week and two of the most amazing NICU nurses my son was able to come home with us and my parents were able to hold their first grandchild. I was a very strict mom tho. I had hand sanitizer in every room and I specifically requested that they wouldn’t kiss my baby anywhere. I didn’t want him to get the smallest of sicknesses and end up in the emergency room. Fast forwarding to now she didn’t call my husband on his birthday and has been ignoring us since. I received my baby shower pictures just recently and decided to send the ones she was in, but got no response. She posted on Facebook 40 minutes later, so I unfriended her on social platforms and just kept her number for emergencies. So, am I the asshole? submitted by /u/Coralis1022 to r/ComfortLevelPod [link] [comments]

Those with babies in the big percentile range - how long was your LO in each size diaper?
I feel like I got wayyyy too many of the earlier sized diapers (145 of size 2 and ~80 for size 1 left) that I have had to give away to other parents when my little one had multiple blowouts. The ranges they give for each stage was nowhere near when I had to start sizing up, off by anywhere from 2-3lbs at each stage and wondering if other parents who have bigger babies also had a similar experience? My LO is consistently anywhere from 90th-97th percentile during each measurement. Although Huggies seems to be shorter in length compared to pampers, my LO sizes out of both equally and around the same time. Below are the approximations for how long she was in each size: - NB - 2-3 weeks sized out at 8lb - Size 1 - week 3-8/9 (~6 wks) sized out at 11lbs - Size 2 - week 9-14/15 (~6 wks) sized out when reached 14lb - Size 3 - week 15 -present (currently at 16w and 16lbs) Mainly looking to figure out how long we are going to be in size 3 diapers for, given the trend Edit: recounted the size 2 diapers I had left over and it's actually ~230 she could no longer use. 😭 submitted by /u/obscureandvague to r/NewParents [link] [comments]

Newborn Size Diapers?
What’s the consensus on these? I have a ton of size 1-3 after my baby shower but no newborn. Are they worth getting? I’m 33w+5 and baby measured today at 5lbs (obviously an approximate) and doctor thinks at this rate between a 7-8lbs baby at birth. submitted by /u/kb_picasso to r/pregnant [link] [comments]

How long were you in each size of diapers?
My son is a 90th percentile baby for weight and height. He’s 2.5 months and we have had a couple blowouts this week in his size 2 diapers. Once we finish this box (about 3 days left in it) we plan to try size 3. I truly can’t wrap my head around him possibly being in size 3 though! He’s just cruised right through size 1 and 2! I’ve been scared to buy bulk boxes because he just seems to jump to the next size so quick. We’ve got to slow down eventually right?!?!? How long were your babies in each size of diaper? I’d love to be able to buy a Costco size box of Huggies and not be scared or not using it all! Edit: welp we just had another size 2 blowout. I really want to use the last ~30 diapers in my open box but obviously blowouts are no fun. submitted by /u/Concerned-23 to r/NewParents [link] [comments]

AITAH for blowing up at my son's father and grandmother when I found out they trashed my son's formula and pacifiers?
I am NOT OOP, OOP is u/PleasantMango777 Originally posted to r/AITAH AITAH for blowing up at my son's father and grandmother when I found out they trashed my son's formula and pacifiers? Editor's note: added paragraph breaks and made small edits for ease of readability Trigger Warnings: destruction of property, misogyny, child neglect Mood Spoilers: infuriating and depressing Original Post: June 25, 2025 So I (20f) live with my boyfriend (28m) and his parents. Despite being on birth control, our son is a oops baby. He came early at 36 weeks, I was scared shitless by the labor and delivery nurses telling me he would need NICU time (he didn’t), he would have feeding or breathing problems (he didn’t), and he was just overall small, and I ended up with a second degree tear due to him being sunny side up and now almost 7 weeks later it still hurts to sit down and move certain ways. I still have back pain from where they placed the epidural. My recovery hasn’t been easy. My stitches are healing well for the most part and I'm going to get an IUD placed to have a more permanent type of birth control because even after being on the birth control pills for 2 years, they aren't 100% pregnancy proof Since my son was born early the nurses gave him formula at first. I really didn't care? I just wanted my son to be healthy and be able to come home. My son's father/boyfriend and his family have pushed me to breastfeed all through my pregnancy. It wasn't ever something that really crossed my mind my goal was just to have a healthy baby and we both survive. The hospital also gave us a pacifier and my son's grandma said that pacifiers were just a crutch that babies didn't need and I was setting him up to "have teeth problems and need braces later on" I tried pumping with the hospital grade pump and it hurt. I tried breast feeding my son but it hurt and a lactation consultant at the hospital said I would struggle with breast feeding due to my anatomy and the fact my son has a tongue tie. I just said ok whatever, let's give him formula. My son's father's family (especially his mom) were NOT happy about it. While I'm up changing diapers and bottle feeding my son, she's also up and in my ear telling me how breast is best and "you never know what's exactly in formula!" (spoiler alert she breast fed my son's father and his 3 siblings so I guess it's like some sort of pride thing for her? Idk, she was the same way with my boyfriend's sister when she had her kids) My son's father even said one time it would be "hot" to see me breast feed and to be honest that just gave me the ick so bad I haven't gone back to work yet (despite me applying to jobs left and right) so whatever my son's father brings in with his paychecks is how I'm surviving right now. It's been tough and I have to pretty much justify how I spend "his" money. "Why did I spend so and so at Walmart?" Our son needed diapers, wipes and formula. A can only lasts so long. "Well why can't you start back breast feeding to save money?" I don't want to! Our son is happy and healthy and thriving on formula. My son's father won't even make him bottles because he thinks it's "unnatural" when I supposedly can just magically make breast milk appear again. My son had an appointment this morning to check his weight with the pediatrician because while he is gaining weight, it's been slow and he's been spitting up the formula. Ended up being gone for longer than I wanted to because the pediatrician's office was running behind. When I got back to the house, I went to make my son a bottle and found the formula canister empty. My son is crying for his milk and I ask his father what happened to the formula can because it was still half full. He just shrugs and goes "it looked old so I threw it out" I asked him why would he do such a fucking stupid thing and he yelled at me not to "talk to him that way". Then his mom came into the kitchen and yelled at me for "disrespecting" her son. I had to grab the formula can out of the trash can and saw all of the dumped formula powder just sitting there along with my son's pacifiers all mixed in with the garbage. At this point my son's grandma picked him up and was trying to console him because he was getting upset. She started backing up my son's father saying the formula he's on always looks "expired" and old and gross. I ended up yelling "OH MY GOD" and called my son's father selfish and shitty for wasting something so important It ended up with his mom yelling at me to get out of her house and she refused to give me my son as he was crying. I lost it on her and screamed at her "GIVE ME MY FUCKING BABY" and she threatened to call the police on me for verbally abusing her and physically abusing my son I ended up leaving with my son to a friend's house and thankfully had a sample can of his formula stashed away in the diaper bag I keep in my car along with the two small sample cans the pediatrician's office gave me today. Both my son's father and grandma have texted me, asking me to come back and saying I shouldn't have been so "dramatic" and that my son's father was just "trying to be careful". He wasted the baby’s food and put my son in a difficult situation, and he doesn’t even get it. Neither does his mom since she's backing him up on this They're both making me feel so guilty. I'm just trying to keep my son alive. I ended up calling my mom to talk to someone about this whole mess and she agreed with my son's grandma about how I should have breast fed (or at least used donor milk lol) but she also said I'm the mom and can make my own decisions about my son. I asked her if we could stay with her for a couple of days and my mom said she just didn't have room for us (which is fair she has my 4 younger siblings living with her as it is). I feel so mad and frustrated. I'm literally on hold with my son's pediatrician's to see if they can give me any more sample cans before I go back to my son's father's house. AITAH for getting mad over formula being trashed or was my son's father in the right here? Edit: My friend loaned me enough cash to get my son a can of formula thank god. My son's pediatrician's office never picked up so I left a message for the receptionist and I’m hoping they will get back to me before they close. We can only stay with my friend for maybe a couple of days because I don't have anything beyond what’s in the diaper bag for my son. I'm going to apply for WIC and SNAP benefits and see if a lawyer will help me get sole custody of my son. I'm not married to his father and I really don't want to go back to his mom's house if I don't have to. I should have grabbed some of my own stuff but I was so angry I just wanted to get out of there. Going back to playing phone tag and trying to get help to get us out of this situation. A huge thank you to the redditor who helped me with finding resources in my county and offered to help with stuff like diapers for my son so we don't have to go back to his dad's/grandma's. I have a lot of places to call tomorrow to hopefully get the ball rolling AITAH has no consensus bot, OOP was NTA Relevant Comments Commenter 1: NTA and this is abuse on them. I'm going to guess that they are "religious" too. Got to their pastor and his wife to sort this out. When the Dr and mom(you) agree it's nobody else's business. OOP: they are very religious. my boyfriend's mom wouldn't even throw me a baby shower because we weren't married and my son is considered a "bastard". I can't wait to be given the ok to go back to work (once a job actually calls me back and I can find a daycare spot for my son) so I can move out. I’m so tired of living with every single one of my choices being under fire/questioned like I just didn't give birth. given the fact my own mother kicked me out, it was either living with my boyfriend and his mom or just being homeless while pregnant Commenter 2: Do not go back. Go to your parents house.. OOP: I don't have a parents house to go back to, my dad is listed as "unknown" on my birth certificate and my mom kicked me out when I told her I was pregnant because she has my younger siblings to take care of. it was either living with my boyfriend and his mom or just being homeless while pregnant. working on finding a more permanent shelter since we can only stay with my friend for a day or two at most Update: June 27, 2025 (two days later) hi everyone, I know a lot of people wanted an update. things haven't exactly gotten better but they haven't gotten much worse. so here's an update for those who wanted it I don't have a parents home to go back to for those telling me to go back to my moms or dads. my dad is listed as "unknown" on my birth certificate and my mom kicked me out when I told her I was pregnant because she has my younger siblings to take care of. it was either living with my boyfriend and his mom or just being homeless while pregnant. I didn't think my son's father and grandmother would screw me over so badly like this though my son's pediatrician's office did call me back yesterday morning (I couldn't get through to anyone Wednesday afternoon) and I was able to go in and they gave me a list of resources. most I already knew about like wic and snap but they also gave me the number to a women’s shelter in my area (I live really rural so there's only one that was listed). I gave them a call, explained my situation and they asked if I was in any immediate danger. I said no, I had left with my son. she asked if I planned on going back and I said no. she asked if any physical abuse had happened and I told her that my son's grandma refused to give him to me until I started yelling but she said that didn't count because it wasn't physical. she also said I couldn't keep my son away from his father but my son's father and grandmother haven't tried contacting me since Wednesday when I left. she gave me the number of legal aid in my county and said to complete the eligibility application and she would contact me when a spot opens up at the shelter (this was yesterday and I’ve tried calling this morning with no luck on getting anyone on the phone). my son's pediatricians office also gave me all of their newborn and size 1 diapers they had in stock and another sample can of formula for him for those saying I need to get a job, get a lawyer, save money....I know that. I just got cleared to go back to work at my 6 week post partum check up. my last job was working as a cashier at a gas station and I only made 9 bucks an hour. I’ve applied to jobs but I can't make anyone hire me on the spot. if it weren't for my friend loaning me money to get my son a full cannister of formula, he would be surviving off the sample cans I had in the diaper bag and what the pediatrician gave me on Wednesday. my friend let us crash with her from Wednesday night until today. her roommate comes back home and I don't blame them for not wanting me and my newborn to sleep on their couch. trying to convince my mom to let us come crash with her until the shelter can find us a bed but I don't think that's going to work out either. I filled out the eligibility application for legal aid yesterday and I am really really hoping I hear something back soon. I tried calling custody lawyers after googling them and out of the few I spoke to, only one was considered "low fee" but they wanted a deposit of over a thousand dollars which I don't have and I am terrified of my son's father using his mother's money to get custody of my son and keep him away from me. one really kind person here on reddit offered to get my son diapers and wipes so I wouldn't go through what little I had in the diaper bag. I also got a lot of really weird and some down right hateful messages too. yes, I know I shouldn't have had a kid at 20. yes I "should have kept my legs closed" and a lot of you have some really strong preferences for breast feeding. it just wasn't something I felt I could do. it wasn't something I wanted to do. I literally never thought my son's grandmother and his father would act like lunatics over this. no, I am not giving my son up for adoption, no I’m not dropping him off at a fire house.

I plan on applying for all of the government help I can get once I have a permanent place to lay my head, I’ve been running off fumes and trying to wrap my head around everything. I’m still in shock over it all and I know I need to get sole custody of my son and keep him away from his dad and grandmother. it's not like I can start lactating again at 7 weeks post partum but boy did I get a lot of messages telling me I didn't try hard enough or didn't care enough about my son because I feed him formula. I keep staring at my phone waiting for the shelter to call to say they have a spot for us. I feel so bad for my son that this is what his life is like and I’m angry at myself for everything too. I’m hoping I can get the ball moving on getting assistance and getting a lawyer and finding something more stable for us soon.

I called a shelter in the next county to mine and left a voicemail and now I’m calling churches for help too. I’d be grateful for a hotel room just for the weekend.

I don't want my son going back to that house unless he just has to because of custody reasons or whatever Commenter 1: Do you have a court ordered custody agreement? I’m assuming no and if that’s the case, there should be no legal obstacle to you relocating with your son to access resources - housing (women’s shelter), food or a job. Please call other shelters away from your area to see if there is room. You ARE in danger of imminent homelessness and are without resources. Don’t downplay your situation when on an intake call OOP: no, no court ordered custody agreement or any thing like that. I called one of the shelters in the county next to mine and left a voicemail and called my own county's shelter again to see if they found a spot for us yet. no luck but I’m going to keep trying.

Honest Diapers can’t hold more than 3 hrs of pee from a 1-month-old.
When my baby was a newborn, I got the N and found they weren’t so effective, chalked it up to being too small, despite my baby being under the 8 pound limit. Now I got size 1, which is 8-14 (and my baby is 10 lbs) so the fit is better. However, 2 days in, we’ve had one poop out the diaper up the back, and numerous pee leaks, all ~3 hrs, 4 max. And this is a baby who drinks 4oz every 2-4 hrs. What gives? I will say right off the bat, the absorbent material in these diapers is MUCH smaller than Huggies and Pampers. So the diapers are smaller and also expand a lot more. But leaking after 3 hours, c’mon!! Anyone have similar experiences? Searching this sub I see controversial takes on them, but my use case seems to be extremely standard. Edit* Some people here seem to think my post suggests I leave my LO sitting in pee for 3 hours all the time. Instead of telling me how you think this is so gross, please be helpful, or at least give a little benefit of the doubt. I’m talking about at night. And even if this were during the day, diapers are super absorbent and wick away moisture. The occasional 3-hour pee diaper isn’t the end of the world. I envy those of you who have the time and means to check the blue line every 30 minutes. submitted by /u/NwThtsASpcyMtbll to r/beyondthebump [link] [comments]

When did your baby transition from Newborn diapers to size 1?
Hi parents & parents to be! FTM and I'm wondering if I should start stocking up (and/or requesting for my babyshower) only Newborn size diapers, or a mixture of Newborn and Size 1 diapers? I know it entirely depends on size of baby, but I've been reading that some parents only used the Newborn size for 2-3 weeks more or less. I'm curious what size diapers you used and for how long until baby transitioned to the next size? I guess I just want to be prepared and not go overboard stocking up on the wrong size. For context, both my husband and I were 10lb big babies. God willing baby remains healthy and born to full-term, I'm fairly confident my baby will be a chonker as well lol **EDIT: THANK YOU to all you amazing moms and dads who responded! This thread was great and very insightful. I'm sure this thread will help other new parents to be as well. My takeaway: ✔️ Gift cards are the way to go!! It'll be easier for us to buy as we go, no need to stock pile - simply try a variety I can easily exchange/return and don't go ham on Newborn anything ✔️ Target/Walmart has a great return policy for unopened diapers 🔥 ✔️ Blowouts mean it's time to size up! ** I also wanted to add that you all sound like great parents. It's a lot of trial and error, but you're doing it 🙏 Congrats on surviving parenthood this far. I know it's not always unicorns and rainbows, and $hit can get hard real quick. If no one told you today you're doing a good job, you are! & Huge kudos to all of you for surviving and raising babies in this insane economy!!! 👏👏 ** submitted by /u/Such-awesome-121220 to r/NewParents [link] [comments]

What size diaper vs. age of your baby.
Curious how old your baby is and what size diaper they wear? Mine is 6 months and wears a size three - but is in the 90% percentile of weight 😋 Friends have babies that are older than mine and still wearing size 1 and 2 - do I just have a mega baby? 😂 submitted by /u/Suitable-Answer-1199 to r/NewParents [link] [comments]
