Thirsties Cover Size Medium, hook and loop version
At 14 months and just 19+ pounds, she is on the thin side. This (old style aplix) Thirsties medium Cover works on her, but it is "full" in the rear for her and a little wide for her. It will work fine, but for this baby, the Duo is a nicer fit. A fuller bottomed, heavier, wider baby would fill out this cover more. There is plenty of growing room in this cover, and plenty of room for adding doublers to get lots of absorbency if that is needed. Notice the hip area in the middle picture. The regular sized Thirsties covers are tall at the hip and fuller in the rear than the Thirsties Duo or Bummis Super Whispers. It does fit her with growing room, but I'm just trying to point out the subtle difference in the cut and fit of various covers for you. We stock only the Thirsties Cover in snap in all sizes (we no longer carry the medium pink one shown). We do carry the Thirsties Cover in hook and loop in size large, since that is the next size up from the Thristies Duo hook and loop cover size 2.
Bummi Super Whisper Wrap Size Medium. This has covered PUL inside and no gusset.
When a diaper cover is too small, it's not as comfy as when it is roomy. If a cover is too large on baby it will gap and leak, but too tight isn't good either. A good fit is important.
