    Baby Beehinds for newborns

    How are the BBH Bamboo fitted one size on newborns? Do they fit well? My last 2 bubs were 9lb so chances are this one is too. Although DS came out with long skinny legs..

    And what about the minkee magic-alls? Howdo you find them?

    We have DD in the fitteds at the moment, and they fit almost perfectly, still a little bit gappy around the legs somewhat because she's pretty skinny. I think i had her first in them at around 6 weeks? She was 8 pound 11oz at birth if that helps at all.

    Haven't tried the minky AIO's - I had the other AIO's - they leaked on my kids so didn't buy any others.

    I use the bamboo fitted & magicalls about 99% of the time with Emily. Have since she was a newborn. I find them fantastic, never had a leak.

    DS was 7lb 7 born and is about 4kg now and i find the BBB are just not a snug enough fit yet especially around the legs (with the long booster in only)... so i am waiting.
    The magicalls were a better fit in sizes obviously but he reacted to them

    SO we are going with prefolds and covers atm until he beefs up enough for the BBB

    I was wondering the same thing about the BBH fitted. When I saw them at the baby expo last month, the lady said in most cases they aren't suitable for newborns - they aren't very "fitted" and they will leak so give bubs a few weeks to beef up before using them. I suppose if you're expecting a big bubba then it could be fine! I really like the BBH bamboo - I can't wait to stock up and use them!! However, might end up using sposies at the beginning if they don't fit well enough

    I had a 9pound bubba and she fit into them straight away, never had a leak. I also love the minkee magicalls. They fit DD2 beautifully and never had a leak with them either. The sale is on the BBH website, buy 3 get one free.
