Great green product but be careful about getting the right size
Great product based on natural ingredients (corn instead of SAP), still very absorbent. No smell, great texture, soft against babies skin, biodegradable - previous reviews said it all. The one thing you need to watch for is sizing - the diapers are really made/marked with European sizes which do not match American ones (and they are not made specifically for the US so we are getting the same thing as in Europe). The baby weight noted on American packaging is wrong and results in diapers being too small for the weight noted. American sizes start at N for Newborn, then 1, 2, 3 while European ones start at 1 for a newborn baby (you will notice these diapers start at size 1).Most of the time European size needs to be one larger than American for a proper fit. Here are the details from UK site for Nature babycare, I believe these should be used when ordering these diapers:
Size 1: 4-11 lbs
Size 2: 6-13 lbs
Size 3: 9-20 lbs
Size 4: 15-40 lbs
Size 4+: 20-44 lbs
Size 5: 24-60 lbs
This means that a 15lb baby would wear size 2 in American size (such as huggies, pampers, 7th generation etc), but needs size 3 in these, otherwise they will be too small with various issues such as leaking and blowouts. Once I figured this out, it became a breeze, but I thought it was important to note since Amazon sells them in large packages.
