He's 17 lbs and almost 29'' long now. I have a basketball player on my hands, and was wondering the same thing!</p> <p>@Weagle: so is it ok for the CDs to be lower than disposables? how low are we talking? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moving-up-to-fully-open-bg-at-5-months#post-883471 Tue, 25 Jun 2013 14:44:57 +0000 immabeetoo 883471@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlebug: Yeah, I'd guess you might end up going back down once movement happens! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moving-up-to-fully-open-bg-at-5-months#post-883467 Tue, 25 Jun 2013 14:44:09 +0000 Weagle 883467@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is 18-19 lbs at almost 14 months. We're still on the middle rise. I think because disposables tend to come up much higher in the front, people expect CDs to as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moving-up-to-fully-open-bg-at-5-months#post-883465 Tue, 25 Jun 2013 14:43:41 +0000 littlebug 883465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@scg00387: He's not moving around too much yet. That's kind of what I thought I'd read once, though - that you may go back and forth between rises (thanks for reminding me of the word I was searching for, ha!) a few times. I just thought 5 months seemed really young to have it full-sized. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moving-up-to-fully-open-bg-at-5-months#post-883462 Tue, 25 Jun 2013 14:42:36 +0000 autumnlove 883462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is almost 18 months and she weighs 24lbs. This is how she wears them right now... </p> [attach=1791/13/moys31.587x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moving-up-to-fully-open-bg-at-5-months#post-883460 Tue, 25 Jun 2013 14:41:54 +0000 immabeetoo 883460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Is he moving yet? We had ours all out around that age and slowly but surely have crept back into the second rise setting once he started rolling, and now crawling, his buddha belly is gone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/moving-up-to-fully-open-bg-at-5-months#post-883448 Tue, 25 Jun 2013 14:37:58 +0000 littlebug 883448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>D is 5 months, probably about 16-17 pounds. We have had him on the 2nd snap on our BG Freetimes for the psat couple of months, and I think the size is still ok, though it is getting a little snug. Daycare is often undoing the snaps so that it is fully open. I feel like if we're fully opening the diaper at 5 months, how could he POSSIBLY fit in them till he's potty trained??? When did you open your CDs to the full size? Is my baby just a huge baby? WTH?</p> <p>ETA: I'm talking about the rise snaps. We use aplix, so the width isn't an issue. </p>
