flats.. In my experience any one size diaper (AIO fitted ect) will eaither be too big for a NB or too small for a toddler and often not great for eaither extreme. A larger NB might do okay but they will be bulky.

A one-size contour or Snappiable fitted like the Kissaluvs Hybrid won't be too bad on a NB.

As far as pockets/AIOs, the best ones on a NB are the FuzziBunz OS and the Rocky Mountain Diaper OS. You'd probably have to wait till the cord falls off (7-10 days), but these can go pretty small since you are tightening the elastic at the legs to make them smaller.

We used dream-eze aio and they worked great for our dd who weighed in at 7.4 oz.

I used all pf's and covers with DS#1, with my new LO I use pf's and BabyKicks Organic Fitted. It's OS and I love it! It's my favorite in my stash. It fits my now 2month old and my 14 month old like a glove. It's pretty amazing how trim it is on a newborn too. There's a special way to fold it so it fits a newborn. It's on their site/blog. Only OS I've used that REALLY fits a newborn.

I agree with the OP about *most* OS dipes being a bit too bulky on the average NB. I bought some BG before ds was born and ended up being able to use them right away but that being said he was 10+lbs at birth and they were even a teeny bit too bulky for *my* liking on him. But by the time he was a couple weeks old they fit him perfectly to me.

Drybees has a fitted bamboo that is 'staged' sizing (2 stages) so that the stage 1 fits newborns better but you can still get some good use out of them. Happy Heinys also has a mini one size that fits 4-15 lbs so that you can get a better fit with a newborn.
