I'd like to get the Disana wool cover, but I'm not sure which size. My DS is 5 months and probably going on 20 lbs now. Medium or large? How much do they stretch? Thanks!!

Anyone?

The GMD website has a lot of helpful info.

They stretch a lot, but these are the kind of covers that felt (which is what makes them so bulletproof) do that shrinks them a bit and makes them less stretchy over time.

I am on my phone

La, La, La!

Medium I would say.

My son is 9 months old almost 20 pounds medium still has plenty of grow room.

I'd say L or XL if for nights - mine are 5-6 years old though (110/116) I use the XL on my 11 month old who is about 22 lbs. The waist certainly is not secure at the top but that is no biggie to me - the legs fit fine and actually with my DS (who used them first) I went from M to XL and the M don't fit my DD2 anymore. Sorry to add contradictory info! If you want to try one try getting them through Tinybirdorganics - $23.95 I think free shipping and use "blabla" as a discount code.

Thanks for the tiny birds site and code. That's a great price! I may try the large since I am mostly going to be using it for nights.

I would go with L I think. My DS is 18lbs and our mediums (a bit felted) are getting a little harder to get on. Thinking of moving up to larges soon.

ETA: My 5yo is in XL (just shy of 40lbs) and they fit him well.
