Nappy help!

Hello everyone.

I’m having trouble with my little ones nappies and what size he should be in. He’s nearly six months old and in a size 5 nappy!!! This feels way too big around his waist however, he is consistently getting a red mark around his leg. It looks so uncomfortable but so big! Anyone else have this problem where babies legs don’t fit but it’s big everywhere else? Any suggestions on what to do? We’re currently using pampers. Thanks so much in advance!

What about trying a different brand for sizing? Or pull ups which are more elastic around the waist?

Try a different brand. Like PP mentioned try pull ups.
My 20 month old is in size 5 but has been for ages! I remember at that age felt like we were going up in nappy sizes frequently so don't worry about what size.

We use pampers for night time the pull up ones and aldi pull ups for the day. All nappy sizes vary in different brands so may be worth just buying a small pack to begin with.
