The d'lish do tend to sit under the belly (berry plush too from memory), but that's okay, they don't wee there do they . Making sure the boy bits are facing down, there's no real reason for a nappy to cover up to the belly button. Just make sure the snaps are nice and tight across the tum and you should be fine (we've not had a problem due to that and I have 12 d'lish). If you need to, due to thigh size, snap the outside snap on the thigh size, skip a snap and snap the inner one over one so the tum is pulled taut. kwim?
