How long did your baby wear size Newborn diapers?
Since my first was a preemie, I'm not sure how long a full term baby wears newborn diapers.
Basically just trying to figure out how many newborn size diapers I will need. Is a pack of 140 enough? Too little? Too many?

Re: How long id your baby wear size diapers?
You will need them for about 5-7 weeks I would think depending on how big they are.

Re: How long id your baby wear size diapers?
My DD is 7 weeks and is still in them! We are finishing up our 3rd box of 96...she was 6 lbs at birth and probably 7.5 lbs now!
So i think it all depends on size of your DC

DS was 7.7 at birth, wore newborns for 2-3 weeks
DD was 6.7 at birth and wore newborns for about 3 weeks max..
i would NOT stock up on newborns.... get size 1 and roll them over

Same here, my DS went straight into size 1. (He was born 9lb 4oz) Couldn't use the NB size outfit I brought to the hospital either.

Re: How long id your baby wear size diapers?
My kids used newborn sized diapers until they were one or two weeks old then they moved into size 1. I think I bought the smallest pack of newborn size diapers and then a jumbo box of size one.

Re: How long did your baby wear size Newborn diapers?
Such a big range of time!
Ok so if I estimate the number of diapers needed per week, do you think it's fair to say 8-10 diapers a day for the first month? So around 60-70 diapers a week, yes?
If so, I'm guessing one pack of 140 Newborn size diapers should be ok and then we can switch to size 1.

Re: How long did your baby wear size Newborn diapers?
With my Preemie we were in new born diapers forever.
With my other 2 full term babies we basically used up 1 box of the big boxes of newborn diapers then went to size 1. The hospitals use size 1 and they fit when theyre first born.

Re: How long did your baby wear size Newborn diapers?
DD was in newborn for like a little over a month. I kept expecting her to grow out of them so I kept only buying smaller packages.
140 seems like a good place to start
