question about diapers

My DH and I were in Costco yesterday and found diapers that goes by numbers. #1 is until 15 pds. I did notice there were newborn diapers and then # 1's. One box of #1's were open so I checked it out and it is small so I figured it was ok to use on a newborn. Is this what you use on a newborn?

My son was born at 9lbs 11oz and I used #1 right away. The newborn diapers were too small for him.

Re: question about diapers

I needed newborn diapers because DD was only 6lb 7oz when she came home from the hospital. It can't hurt to have 1 small pkg of newborns on hand just in case you need them.

DD was born at 8 pounds and then dropped and is now a little over 7 pounds. She fits in the N (newborn) size swaddlers. DH made a mistake and bought size 1 that are waaaaaaaay too big for her now...

Re: question about diapers

You know what, I couldn't imagine a baby fitting into a newborn size diaper, so I only bought 1's, well, let me tell you, Ava will not be wearing them for quite some time! Even the newborn ones are big on her, and she was 7lbs.11oz!
I wouldn't say it's a waste if you bought them because eventually the baby will wear them, but definitely get a small package of newborn size just incase. I didn't really go crazy buying stuff like that beforehand because you just don't know how big they'll be.

Yeah, my 7 lb 14 oz boy didn't wear size 1 until he was around 3 months!

I would buy the newborn ones

I would buy newborn ones. My DS was 6lbs 15 oz and only fit into preemie diapers even though it said on the label up to 5 pounds. He is very petite. He is now in Newborn and probably wlll be for awhile.

Re: question about diapers

I would buy a small amount of newborn diapers until the baby is born. We had a small bag of the Swaddlers Newborn which we never got to use. Caiden went straight into size 1. He was born 10lb 12oz though.

Both Emma and Jeremy, 7 15 and 7 8 respectivly, wore newborns. I bought 4 packages for each of them before we came home and by the time those were gone it was time for size 1's
