Grrrrr! Dipes aren't fitting him right all the sudden - Cloth Diapers & Parenting Community

I'm so frustrated! I sold off all but 2 fitteds that I currently have here to go to mainly pockets - figured I could buy some more fitteds for my longies this fall/winter.

Yesterday he decided that he will no longer keep his BG's and LRD aplix AI2's on - even putting clothes over them doesn't help - he takes the clothes off and then takes the dipe off!

Then last night I put a FB on him and could barely snap the legs, the waist is all rolled in so that the snaps are leaving red marks on his tummy. I thought maybe switching from the PT to a large would help - the larges are still huge on him!

Thankfully I have 2 AI2's from Sweet Baby Boutique that fit him PERFECT and 3 LRD's that are snaps instead of aplix.... 5 dipes isn't going to get me very far though.

Anyone else have the same problem with their FB's? It's like he's in between sizes, he outgrew the Med rise a while back... pt's have been fitting him perfect up until yesterday and the larges don't fit at all.

I was just content with my stash last week

When DS outgrew his small FBs, I got a medium to try for size and I hated the way it fit on him. It seemed so saggy or something. Needless to say, it's on FSOT right now, because I just never reach for it.

Hugs, momma. I hope you find a good fit, soon!

Well, as if by magic the mailman just came to my front door with my 3 Cub Covers heavy wetter fitteds, my VBSN and a VB AIO.

So, at least I'll have something that fits while I figure this mess out!

Anyone have other pocket suggestions? I have some Large SB's SS pockets here, we are pushing the limits on the snaps on those though - I have a feeling they won't fit at all shortly.

Pockets or fitteds...

Just about the only pockets I use anymore are GADs and BGs.I like GADs for daytime, but I wouldn't use them at night. Well, strike that, I like windpro fleece GADs at night, but not PUL. They are SS, too.

Oh, and I liked SEZ, but I couldn't find a really good fit on DS. But if you can find a good size, she may still be running a sale on PUL pockets.
