Ok, I know I have been posting a lot of questions here lately, bear with me, I am feeling the nesting urge already!
My MIL is going to make my baby several fleece covers. I love the look of the RRP cover. It is really great that it is one size, but it says it is not for "tiny babies." I searched some other forums on diaperswappers and someone said to scale down the pattern to 80% if you use it on a newborn. I have big babies, my others were 10 and 11 lbers. This is a girl, so maybe she will be smaller, but I don't expect her to be under 9lbs. So I don't know if the scaling down would be necessary.
I am only planning on buying 2-4 other covers and having my MIL make 6+ of these covers (I want extra, because I don't plan to snappy/pin my prefolds) so I will be pretty dependent on them and need them to be snug-fitting from the beginning.
Also, the first link to the pattern does not work. Is the second one all that is needed?
