Good fit nappy for long thin baby please

Postby Audrey » Tue May 03, 2011 9:00 am

Please can anyone help me, bubba's outgrown her size 1s and I'm really struggling with the size 2s. She's really slim but has chunky little thighs so all her nappies are a bit loose around the waist but digging into her little legs :cry: Have so far tried bg v3 (I think...) green kids pockets, coolababy pockets and some old bambinex. The bambinex and her size 1 bamboo tots bots were perfect while they fitted but the size 1 tots are too short on the rise now and the size 2 bambi are too slim. At last measurement she had 16" waist and 9 1/2" thigh

Little Gumnuts and Luscious Little SOmethings both have a good range for leg and waist. I feel your pain as DD was long and thin - she was still in size 1 tots bots at 13 months as the wee ran out of the legs of a size 2!

Have you tried any side snapped nappies? That way you can do the legs up loose and the waist tight!!

T was 95th for length and just under 50th for weight for a while, the very best fits for him were Holdens Landing but yes any side snapping nappy with two snaps works. I often do the thigh snaps loose than the waist snaps as he has a skinny middle and they work perfectly well :)

Side snap nappies would be an option.

How about itti bittis?

Or flexitots - we found they fitted better on DS (who was also skinny) than standard tots bots fitted nappies.
