10 days old, 7.5 pounds.

The front is folded under for cord area. Thus the rise of the diaper is more than shown in these pictures. This diaper doesn't get outgrown in moments like some other newborn diapers, but as baby gets older and wets more, use it at it's full rise height and you might want to add a doubler.

same baby as above. This is a wonderful newborn diaper. It does require a cover. This is the cotton diaper only. Put a cover over it for waterproofness. If you are looking for the kind with the waterproof outer layer built in (all in one piece), you are looking for the SposoEasy All-in-one diapers.

5 weeks old, 11 pounds 11 ounces.

6 pound 14 ounce baby who is 5 days old. Her cord has already fallen off. You can fold it down lower so it's below the cord in those first days. Just tuck it down more. It works fine for the cord.

This 1 week old is 7 pounds 10 ounces.

We created the GMD Infant Fitted Diapers 8 years ago to offer an economical choice in the fitted diaper style for a newborn. (GMD is for Green Mountain Diapers.) We think this the best value in a cotton fitted style for a newborn on the market today. It is 100% cotton, 2 layers of flannel with 3 layers of terry hidden inside (prior versions were 2 layers inside, these new ones are now 3 layers of terry for better absorbency).

Also consider

• the thicker and a little bit bigger but still newborn Under The Nile size newborn
• Prefold Diapers size newborn. Very economical and can be fastened with pins or a snappi fastener or unfastened.

As baby grows, so will baby's bladder and thus baby's output will increase. The trimmess of the GMD Infant Fitted Diapers is deliberate so a brand new newborn is not overwhelmed by the diaper. As baby gets older some will need the additional absorbency of an added doubler in the diaper. Just about any doubler is fine. This need for doublers as baby grows is true for all brands of diapers intended to fit newborns. Our favorites for young babies are are Small size Organic Velour Doublers, Baby Greens Day Doublers or Small Hemp Doublers. Doublers are useful for added absorbency throughout the entire diapering years and thus are a worthwhile investment.

12 days old, 7 pounds 11 ounces. Compare to below.

12 weeks old. 13.5 pounds. A much bigger baby, yet it still fits nicely.

We do NOT recommend this, it's really too small on him, but we show this picture to show that you can get good use out of the GMD Infant Fitted diaper before it gets outgrown. This diaper fits newborns and is intended for newborns. This baby is a big 4 month old! He is 16 pounds already. I was surprised to see a 16 pound baby in a newborn diaper, so I had to take a picture. It works on him with a doubler, but it really is too small on him now. Yet the fact that is does get on him at all demonstrates the true size of this diaper. Most moms will move up to the Snug to Fit diaper at about 13 pounds or so, and not wait this long to get the next size.

Below is the same baby as the 4 month old above, in the same diaper. This picture was taken when he was 2 weeks old:
