WNOS leg gaping?

Postby babypod » Wed Apr 28, 2010 4:29 pm

I have serious (poo explosion-serious iykwim) leg gaping with my WNOS. I tried to adjust the poppers more tightly but then it's too tight on the belly. :( I'm gutted! Could it be because of the insert? I used a Ptits Dessous one so pretty thick... Could I have more luck with an applix fastening?

From what I have read on here this seems to be a problem that lots of people experience with WNOS unfortunately.

I've always found side snap nappies a much better fit (blueberries are the best I've found :wink: )

I don't think OS nappies are a very good fit in general on a lot of babies.

I don't have any problems with BG OS though... Maybe because of the applix?

I have the same issue with my WNOS. It gapes across DS's belly and leaks through the sides and I use a Ptits Dessous insert. My BGs, however, are bombproof and I do find I get a better fit across his tummy with aplix.

WSS... SOphie is still on the medium rise at 19 months. The high rise would give her awful leg gape :(

I think rise was the problem! I tried again today and lowered the rise... No leaks! Thanks everyone!
