It's totally natural to be confused about when to change diaper sizes — everyone gets confused because there's no hard and fast rule. The general guide is this: switch sizes when your baby is no longer comfortable in the current diaper, not just when the weight gets close to the lower limit.
Here are the signs to look for:
- The waist elastic is causing redness on your baby's belly or sitting too tight
- You get frequent leaking from urine/poop from the legs or waist
- Your baby seems uncomfortable when pooping or fidgety because the diaper feels full
- The front and back panels can't fully cover your baby's bottom
So comfort matters more than weight. At the same time, it's common to buy a small pack of a larger size to test — babies grow fast, so many families use different sizes at different times (different size during day vs. night).
