We have used the fuzzibunz MCNs and DD rolled at 3 weeks (only tummy to back though, back to tummy took way longer). The ones we used weren't one size fits all and we have used 2 different sizes - Small when DD was a newborn - 14 months and since then Petite Toddler as she is quite slim in build.
I can't say that we saw any movement restriction or any delay in achieveing physcial milestones (compared to her sposie counterparts) but we did make sure that we gave her at least 30min nappy free time every day so that may have helped.
I agree to have a lok around at some slimmer makes as this may suit bubs build better. There seems to be a wealth of experience on this site so I'm sure you will get heaps of recommendations. As for fuzzibunz, I'm not sure if you can get them in Australia anymore but I found them to be brilliant and as they are pockets you can keep them slim for day and bulk them up for night.
I agree that they can make movement resitricted but for us its a good thing due to mateauz having bad hips. WE have some itti bittis that are slim in the crotch and allow him to move more freely as were a baby beehind can make him look like a stuffed turkey.
Most exciting thing about MCN's...its all trial and error as our babies are all different in shape and size...other good thing...think of the fluffy mail you can get trialing different nappies
Well, I think my little man has finally grown into his nappies - he's almost 6mths now. He now able to sit up and not be restricted by the nappy. He's close to crawling too - pushing up with his arms and legs so his whole body is off the ground except for his hands and feet.
If they did then a lot of people in the 80s and before would be physically under developed as that was the most common form of nappy, so I wouldn't think so.
