my baby was 6lbs at birth and is now 10lbs - they have fit great so far. I would classify her as a "skinny" baby. In the beginning we really had to wrap them tightly and angle the tabs a bit because her legs were so skinny. I used them with GMD- Workhorse clotheze fitteds and they worked fabulous - never had any urine leaks only the occasional EBF diaper blowout. But honestly the cloth did better with big poos than disposables. She is just now starting to grow out of them :)

Congratulations! From my experience the small will be too big for your newborn. There will be leakage. I usually have just four of the newborn wraps for my newborns so they fit correctly for the first month. Then I move to the small size and I usually have six of those wraps. And I love the newborn size (I think it is 6-10 pounds) with the umbilical cutout, it really helps protect their umbilical cords while they are healing after birth. Good luck!

It all depends upon the size of your newborn! I had one at 5 lbs and they were too big and one at albs 3oz and they fit for a while but not too long. I encourage you to buy two or three to have on hand and then see how they fit. We loved them.

Congratulations!! It will be too big at first. My baby's first cloth diaper cover was Bummis Super Brite, size newborn and it was perfect. The prowrap works but it is a bit cheap and sticky. Good luck!!!

Depends on the size of your babe, but in all truth, I wouldn't use cloth for about two-three weeks. Until his/her cord falls off, all the muconium is gone, and you have a schedule, disposables are much more user friendly. You'll change babe almost every hour and few diapers actually fit well for the first few weeks, so cloth becomes expensive and overwhelming. You have do much laundry, and the muconium stains are very difficult to get out. Once babe is close to a month, these wraps, plus a flat, worked perfectly for me.

My experience is to always take the one a little bigger so in this case the small medium since it will last longer and you can adjust it when baby is tiny.

I would say yes for newborn size. They are surprisingly stretchy but, it would be tight. You could actually make a very simple single chain band that would look awesome.

Newborn clothes fit well, with a bit of room when new. So they will still fit when they shrink a bit in the wash. Preemie are kinda tight and would be difficult for a child to dress and undress, probably shrink too much in the wash.

Yes this is perfect for a newborn. I used it from the day my daughter was born and still use it 6 months later. The mesh is soft.

My baby's head size was average/above average and it fit fine. The opening is very stretchy and I would even stretch it out by hand right before putting it on him just to loosen it up a bit more.

I got a large, and it is small by many standards. I cannot imagine how small the small must be and im sure it could only be useful for a very short time. My son could use the large from 5mo. I would highly recommend going with the large.

You would buy your normal size - K'tans are very stretchy! Actually, I would size down, as K'Tans run very large. I was bordering between a medium and large, and I need a small to get baby high and tight like their supposed to be. You could probably find a good video on YouTube that shows how to use it with twins. I think the instructions show how to use it with twins too. You won't be able to carry twins for more than a couple months probably. Stretchy also means saggy with heavier babies or multiples. Once they are around 15lb, they will probably be too big.

I started using cloth at 6/7 months and my son runs average to small sized. I had him on the lowest rise setting with the wings overlapped for a couple months. I would say these are probably gonna be too big at first. Not sure how long.... but I'd def still get some one sized. You know how babies grow..

I bought my daughter clothe for her doll and they were baby clothe some were for newborns others were for 1 to 3 months, both worked well the correct size is one month baby clothing ;) good luck

yes. this seat is designed to fit newborn through toddler. the lowest seat adjustment plus cushioned inserts give a lot of support for a newborn. the only downside i would say for a small baby is that there is not handle so this seat cannot be carried around through a store or something if baby is sleeping.

There is not a big difference between them. But you can never be sure that small size will fit your newborn baby, so to be on safe side, it is better to take a size slightly larger and keep on mind that medium you will use longer that small size, since baby grows faster that we think.

The size small will fit your baby perfectly. This collar is simply beautiful. As far as the leash, I didn't buy one because I already had one. I hope this will help you.

Newborns are perfect. My 10 month old was too big for it by 5 months. She is pretty active and we didn't want water everywhere.

Hi there is no size. I just ordered the one for baby an it fits fine for my 15months baby; he is still using it and he is 20months now

My baby is 3 months old and I just bought the larges. He weighs 17 lbs so he would technically fit the smalls, but the larges for really well in our diapers(we have BumGenius and Happy Flute).

I would get the large mainly for comfort reasons, the medium may be cuttingit a bit close depending the length of your baby :)
