How much does DS weigh? Cruisers don't start until size 3. My DS is 14 pounds, 9 ounces and he is in size 2 Swaddlers. I plan to switch to Cruisers when he's around 16 pounds. I think the size 2 Swaddlers go up to 18 pounds, but the size 3 Cruisers start at 16 pounds.

Re: ok diaper advice please.....

I think it's really a personal preference. He could go either way because he falls into the weight range for each diaper. I don't think the Swaddlers will "hinder" his movement, but Cruisers have a more flexibility. Which do you like more, the softness of the Swaddlers, or the flexibility of the Cruisers? I've heard Cruisers are great, but I haven't tried them yet since DS is still in size 2. We've been happy with the Swaddlers so far!

Yep! I think they are 14 pounds to 22 pounds. DS is still in plain size 2, but I see the 2-3's in the store. I think they only come in the 40 count (or something like that), not the huge value boxes.

Also, I don't think the Cruisers are soft like Swaddlers. I think they have more of a feel like the Baby Dry diapers.

I don't remember when I switched DD. I'm pretty sure she grew out of the swaddlers way before she was crawling. I like the Cruisers if that helps anyChat Icon

I remember not being happy when we moved up to the Cruisers because they weren't as soft. I felt like they weren't as flexible either because they weren't as soft. In any case, we didn't have an issue with either, and we just waited until she outgrew the Swaddlers to move her up.

We just moved Lucas into the cruisers size 3. The swaddlers were starting to look like a bikini Chat Icon so we had to go up. They are working out really well so no complaints here...but it was hard to see him go up to these Chat Icon

He's 16 pounds right now.
