Tester with a small baby or about to have a newborn

Postby capelbach » Thu Nov 24, 2011 3:52 pm

I'm after a tester for a OSFM who has or is about to have a newborn, ideally on the small size. Basically what I'm looking for is someone to test and see at what stage, (weight) the OSFM nappy actually fits and works. If you have older/bigger children who could also try the nappy that would also be good.

Is this making a pattern or trying a nappy you've already made up?
My DD is 7 weeks now though so she might be too big. She's about 4.5kg now or just under - getting weighed again next week.

I have a newborn, born yesterday in fact on the smaller side (7lb 13oz/3.54kg) if you are wanting someone to test still. Also have a 12kg 2 year old I could try it on.

Yup Max has always been like that too. Perfectly happy and healthy, met all his milestones! I guess someone has to be at the bottom of the graph as well as the top!!!

Yeah ds was only 6kg at 6month and ds is now 5.03kg at 8wks :) although he was born a pound heavier.

Dd is now nearly just in night nappies and is 13kg amd ds is 8wks and 5kg (with what i consider skiny legs) if you still need a tester ;)
