I havent actually used the select ones yet, as bubs is comming in just over 3 weeks,, but bought a box of them to start out on,, and they are very thin, they have no actual tape band around the tummy,,, the tapes seem to attach wherever needed,, so you can have them as small or as large as you need them. Also, the newborn ones have a semi circle cutout on the middle of the front so there is not nappy material irritating the newborn unbilical stump which i thought was a great idea also. All in all, they look alot like the huggies, just without the pictures on them as they are all plain white. HTH
