It is the sort of thing I don't want to google - it is usually best to avoiding googling rude words!!

Nappies - these size 4 ones seem to be getting a bit small, but the size 5 ones say from like 30lb+. I'm not stupid enough to be doing nappies up wrong am I? You'd think I'd be alright at it, I changed 50+ a day for a while!

you're forgetting 4+ :cool:
also Chris isn't 30lbs but he's in 5+ size, they over lap weights coz a baby weighing say 20lbs could be a tall skinny older baby or a shorter younger chubby baby

Krystal are you using new baby ones (yellow packet) or baby dry (green pack or blue if huggies) I think the green ones will be more absorbent than yellow

Feelie, one of my friends at the time had a 2.5yr and a 10m old and couldn't be bothered to buy different size nappies and remember who's was who's, so she ended up putting size 5 on them both. Seemed to work. Having said that Molly went into a 4+ around the 5-6m mark, maybe sooner and is still on them, so is Jack (who i've given up trying to potty train again for the millionth time). Makes life easier just grabbing the same nappy for both.

Oh, there is a 4+? I thought that was a way of saying 'something bigger than a size 4'.

Chances are he'll have a lengthening soon, so the size 5's will definitely be too big.

What brands do a 4+ one? I've just stuck with Huggies Natural Fit. I suppose I should shop around a bit!

I tried one of the size 5's I've got, and it was a little big, but not a huge amount. It just seems ridiculous that he can be wearing them at four months. He is quite short and chubby though, but he isn't anywhere near 30lb!

Does seem crazy Feely! Elijah is not on the huge scale of Toby but he is over a year, and only recently into size 4s!

ETA: I see lots of other people have had similar experiences to yours though, I guess Elijah is just snake-hipped and narrow-assed...;)

Oh, and anyone had any experience of ballooning ones when urinating? GP and HV said to just keep an eye on it, but I'd be reassured if someone has heard of it or experienced it.

I'm fairly sure when I read up on EC that was mentioned as a possible sign of needing a wee for boys.

4+ is available on most brands of nappies from pampers, huggies to supermarket own, just look about in larger stores.

Keira wears size 5 pull ups, but she can still fit into size 4+ if the 5's aren't available, just a bit more roomy in a 5.

I feel really tired tonight! Not sure if it's my lens having been in too long or just tired!

Omg gross I just seen my cat rubbing his willy across the carpet, almost like a bum scoot they would do if they had worms but he doesn't have worms and his red lipstick is poking out, how gross!
