This past week or so, I've noticed that when DS bends over, he looks like an electrician (or plumber, or...). This seems to be happening with ALL of his diapers - Fuzzi Bunz (which have a plenty high rise), VB fitted, my own pattern... And I'm not sure that it's entirely a rise issue... Maybe it's his pants pulling the diapers down? Although the VB fitted seems to do it pantsless... I think that's just the fact that some of the rise is in the tabs being so tall and folding over, so that essentially makes the useable rise less on that diaper. Just a theory.
Anyway, I'm trying to figure out how to fix the problem. It's possible his rise has grown, but they seem to fit when I first put them on, and then they sag down as time goes on. That's probably why it's worse when he's wearing pants. It happens with front and side-snapping diapers. And while he may be slimming down a tad, I really haven't been able to snap it much tighter yet. He's still got that huge milk belly which gets in the way of things.
So ideas on what type of change might help in this case?

The boy clothes are still ok, but DS is just a weird shape right now, I guess. Huge waist, no butt, itty bitty thighs, and really long torsoed. He wears 18 month size for leg length, but could easily do 24 month for the waist. And in tops, he's really 24 month or even whatever is after that (the T sizes confuse me). I bought him a light jacket in 18 month size and a heavy jacket in 24 month size for winter at the last big consignment sale here, and I thought the heavy jacket would for sure last us all winter... Nope! The arms are too short!
: And the 18 month size is ok, but a bit short in the torso, plus when I zip it up, I really have to stretch it to get around that milk belly. He's running now, so he SHOULD be losing the milk belly, right?
