Mumsnet Talk

Using bumgenious for my 16 week old ds. I feel that following the sizing guide with the nappies isn't comfortable looking. The website talks about ensuring the nappy doesn't leak, but not how the nappy should look for comfort.

I am slightly worried that the nappy is pressing on his stomach when he is in a sitting position. Does anyone know what I should be checking for? Should the rise stop around the belly button or lower? Hope this makes sense!

I would think at 16wks the nappy would be best on the smallest setting and would usually sit just underneath the belly button. HTH x

I find that BG tend to sit underneath the belly button, I wouldn't worry about them sticking in her. They have stretchy tabs on the sides of the nappy.

We've used them for the past year and always did them up so that they were snug against the tummy, no issues with marks at all.

I found that we had to step up the rise when we couldn't get the nappy to do up without it gaping at the front if that makes sense.

Piggyboo, weight wise that is how it should be done. Ds is such a string bean though it didn't look right. Actually looks most comfortable and snug on largest setting. Wish I had bought more totsbots, they seem to fit better and are a nicer
material. I do love my nappies though

Thanks for the advice!
