Cloth Nappy Tree Forum

Lucas has just had a growth spurt and the rise was always 'only just' on him - and now we have deinite 'builders cleavage'... in a large! He's only 18 months old, but i on the 75th centile for weight and height. I've already checked that they're fastened tightly enough - and he got little red marks and still showed off his butt crack... so now what? Put them aside for any future siblings? Aside from the peeping bum 'feature', they're fantastic, reliable nappies for him.

oh no !!!!!!
thats awfull,i guess you could keep them for future bubbas, or sell and have the fun of buying new fluff!!

How bizzare, they fitted Jak ok, at 2, and he was on about the 99th centile! I'd sell them, theres a good resale on them at the mo!

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, then? Pulling them around too far at the front, maybe - but I am spending a lot of time chasing him to tug the waist back up to where it should be. I just can't do them any tighter without marking him. Chunky thighs, small waist, maybe.

Maybe, what a shame for you!

I had to sell them when Blake wasn't quite 11 months as I had the same problem. He has a chunky bum and little waist!

Oh what a pity I'd sell them and buy some lovely new fluff that will fit him well

That's such a shame I'd be selling them too, and cheer yourself up with some lovely new fluff

I know I should probably sell them... but I don't want to! I'm thinking that firstly I will play with which poppers to do up etc. for the absolute best fit - maybe have them uneven, etc. and then I might remind myself that they work okay under a vest because they can't slide in the same way, and also that they're still great when he's sitting in his pushchair and I'm taking too long shopping... Doh... I'm so bad for wanting to keep something that isn't quite right. And maybe here lies the true answer to why I won't ever have enough money to fund this habit.
