Sizing and Product information
Please note that there are 2 size tables on this page--one for diapers made with woven materials, and one for diapers made with knits.
"Woven" materials have very little stretch and include, but aren't limited to, PUL, flannel, cotton or polyester woven prints, and suedecloth.
"Knits" tend to be stretchy and include, but aren't limited to, cotton or poly jersey, interlock or rib knits; crushed panne velour; cotton or bamboo velour, fleece, french terry or loop terry; microchamois; and microfleece.
If even one of the diaper layers is 'woven', use the size table for wovens, even if other materials in the diaper are knit. The woven will prevent the stretchier fabrics from being able to stretch.
Diapers made from knit fabrics tend to fit a wider size range due to the stretch. The rise will
tend to be the most important measurement in deciding between size ranges.
It is possible for you child to wear a different size in knits and woven diapers.
*The knit table has a size "extra small" that is not yet available in wovens. This size is great for larger newborns who typically can't wear regular newborn sizes for more than a minute, or slightly older babies who are smaller, especially in the thighs and not quite ready for smalls. If you have ANY questions about whether a particular diaper will fit your baby please contact me at tina@heartlanddreams.com and I will work with you to get the best fit.
