Outgrowing absorbancy before size?

[cristeen]

He's still in NB dipes, the smalls are still too large, but most of the NB dipes and some of the smalls are already not absorbent enough... getting soaked with a single pee. But if I add more absorbency, like in his night-time dipes, his legs are so splayed that when he's laying on his side, one foot is just dangling in mid-air.

What can I do?

Try using a baby wash cloth as a doubler it will add assorbancy with out a ton of bulk.

i used a baby wipe as a doubler for quite a while, then went up to doubling the preemie pfs. also, it wont hurt him to have his legs like that . i know it looks funny though!

I have some bamboo wipes I've been using as doublers. They are a little more absorbant than regular wipes and super soft. : ) newborn or premie pf's work well, too. you could probably use a washcloth if you need more than a wipe will provide.
