Cute, no worries about her giant cloth diapered butt, and easier to change her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-go-up-a-size-in-pants#post-2413368 Thu, 07 Jan 2016 20:19:53 +0000 LindsayLou 2413368@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually keep her in whatever length pants are fitting her and don't worry about the waist being a bit snug. That may change when she's older and more active, she's only 4.5 months now. She has a very long torso and very short legs, so she's usually a size ahead in onesies than she is in pants. Prior to getting a cast put on her fractured leg this week, she was solidly in 3-6 month onesies, but still fitting well into 0-3 pants. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-go-up-a-size-in-pants#post-2413364 Thu, 07 Jan 2016 20:11:40 +0000 knittylady 2413364@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@erinbaderin: my string beans had the same problem! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-go-up-a-size-in-pants#post-2413343 Thu, 07 Jan 2016 19:44:39 +0000 erinbaderin 2413343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's funny - my son was really skinny, so cloth diapers were the only thing that kept his pants up. When he started daycare and we had to switch to disposables we had a real problem keeping his pants on. </p> <p>Have you looked into miniloones? They have lots on Etsy and they seem like a great option for cloth diapers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-go-up-a-size-in-pants#post-2413329 Thu, 07 Jan 2016 19:33:08 +0000 brownepiano 2413329@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometimes, it depends on the brand. But boys pants are cut differently. I just found that by the time the length was finally starting to fit him, the rise wasn't enough to cover his diaper. My kid is pretty short too so it makes it worse. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-go-up-a-size-in-pants#post-2413247 Thu, 07 Jan 2016 18:28:32 +0000 Torchwood 2413247@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've been sticking with whatever her current size is. But she's skinny, so maybe there's a bit more room there? They are tight over the cloth for sure. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-have-to-go-up-a-size-in-pants#post-2413236 Thu, 07 Jan 2016 18:22:44 +0000 Bao 2413236@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is in cloth diapers, and when she wears leggings they are pretty tight around her butt area, but not too many issues if she wears sweats. They are tighter than with a normal diaper but it doesn't seem to bother her. I'm wondering if going up a size in leggings might give her a bit more room and cover more of her diaper, since they tend to sit lower over the cloth. </p> <p>Do you have to go up a size in pants when CDing or do pants fit ok over your LO's diapers? </p>
