Measurement & Fit
Diapers and covers are sized by waist & hips within an approximate weight range. For the best fit over the longest time, find the size where your child is likely to fit low in the range. For the best immediate fit or bikini fit, choose the size where your child is high in the range.
For the average child, medium diapers and medium and large covers fit for most of their diapered life. These measurements reflect approximate measurement of the diaper or cover itself. The weight ranges have developed based on actual babies wearing Fuzbaby diapers.
Fuzbaby makes a full range of cloth diaper sizes to fit from preemie to larger toddler. Just because your baby's measurements are in the range doesn't necessarily mean this size is the best fit for your baby. Consider your baby's build when choosing the size.

Fuzbomb Wool Diaper Covers
Cover measurements will be larger than diaper measurements to account for the bulk of the diaper. Measure around your baby in a diaper to get the right cover measurement. If you plan to wash and dry the covers by machine, you should also allow a little bit of room for shrinkage--no more than 1". Especially on the larger sizes, consider the child's build and the shape of your diapers before weight.

Almost-in-One Wool Cover and Contour Diaper Sets
The wool Almost-in-One diaper and cover combination is sized to be worn together, with a trimmer fit than most cloth diapers. This may be too trim for very chubby babies. If you use this cover over fitted diapers that overlap in the front or at the sides, this will add extra bulk, so the cover will fit smaller in the suggested range. If you plan to wash and dry the covers by machine, you should also allow a little bit of room for shrinkage--no more than 1". Especially on the larger sizes, consider the child's build before weight.
