Now that the baby is over 10lbs, he’s been fitting into his bumGenius diapers a lot better. (Honestly, they were just so bulky before that I barely reached for then because I couldn’t fit any onesies over them unless I put him in 12-month clothing). I also realized something the other day: instead of using the inserts that came with them — which has a folded part because we’re still using the dipes on the smallest setting and causes extra bulk — why not stuff them with a couple of the preemie prefolds I have laying around? My son pees a lot, but I change him every couple of hours anyway, so two prefolds haven been absorbent enough for him. The best part is that they make the dipes SO MUCH more trim. I can actually put the baby in regular-sized clothing while he’s wearing them!

And YAY for finding a new use for the two dozen preemie prefolds we have!

Yes. I really am excited about this!
