Mama S, these are the results of the selection of nappies I have bought so far.
For reference, Max is relatively big for a new born at 3.8 kg.
Bumsters - size S
Still WAY too big to use
Rumpsters - size S
Very trim and the 'cutest' style that we have. We have had one leak with them, up the back.
I have also had a leak with a disposable too though, so am doing them all up a bit tighter now.
Bubble Bubs - size NB {handmade feece nappy}
Good size and nice fit, these work well.
Bum Genius.
Max fits into these fine on the smallest size, {a smaller baby may need to wait a bit to use them} so they are good value for money, considering they will expand and last until toilet trained.
The only thing I don't like about them is they have a 'plasticy', rather than a 'fabric' cover, but that's just an aesthetics thing really. They are HUGE on, as they are concertined right down to fit new born, so wouldn't fit under a lot of outfits.
As they are a pocket nappy, they are much easier to get dry than the AIOs though. Definitely worth investing in a few to try, and see what you think.
Now I've given it a go, I am going to try some more pocket nappies now, they are not really harder to use than an AIO, you just need to stuff them ahead of time, and I like the quick dry.
Glad I didn't stock up too much on NB sizes as Max is quite big and will be fine in most 'smalls' I'm sure.

Hi Gidget,
Thanks for your "reviews" on these diapers. I'll let you know mine later.
I think i prefer pocket diaper than AIO, i have both, i wash them and the pocket dries up in half a day. I have assorted insert/boosters too, the cheapest is the muslin cloth which also dried up very quickly.
I only got 3 NB size from doubibou, and the rest are S size from nappypooh, etc. I just like bum genius as it's one size fits all. Nappypooh's pocket S will last til about 6-8 months only. So it's not economical.
Take care, happy diapering
