I have just bought these for a 1 month old and I can't get them to fit. The countless snaps are very confusing, and they are too "tall". Suggestions?

The first two rows of snaps are for the wings, the part that you bring from the back to the front of the diaper. Then you have the snaps that adjust size. If you click the sticking out snaps (male?) to the very bottom row of pushed in snaps (female?) you make the diaper as small as it can get. These fit my son pretty well around 10lbs. It's OK if they fit over the belly button a little (as long as the cord stump is gone). They do make newborn size diapers that fit better and make diapering easier in the first few months while you get the hang of things.

I agree, there are so many snaps. Have you snapped the snaps in the front to change the length? That will make it much shorter by one or two 'sizes'. Also, something that could help with sizing, my baby has chunky legs so snap the bottom snaps closer to the outside while snapping the upper ones closer to the inside snaps. I have found that it keeps the poo contained without being to tight on his legs or tummy. I hope this helps!

Our daughter was 7 lbs 14oz and these did not fit her correctly until she was about 3 months old. They "fit" her, but they were too wide around the legs which was just messy. We used prefolds until she was about 3 months. It really depends on the size of your baby and the proportions of his/her body. In general, these do not tend to fit brand new babies. :)

I had the opposite experience. I have 2 SnugRide 35s and not only could I not get them to fit but when I called BabyTrend they told me that the double snap n go will fit the Snugride and the Snugride 30, but not the Snugride 35. I found this out too late and ended up having to return by double snap n go and buy the Graco Quattro Tour Duo. It was heavier and not exactly what I wanted but it worked and now that my twins aren't in their infant seats anymore I can still use the stroller because it has seats.

They have many different snaps on them that allow them to grow with the baby. I currently use them on my 3 month old but they would fit my 2 year old if I wanted them to. They were a little big at first when the baby was newborn; they fit but were really bulky on her. By 10 or 12 pounds they fit great.

It all depends upon the size of your newborn! I had one at 5 lbs and they were too big and one at albs 3oz and they fit for a while but not too long. I encourage you to buy two or three to have on hand and then see how they fit. We loved them.

This might be a problem...mine is a tight fit and it takes me some effort to get them on. Maybe a larger size? But I think she will have problems no matter what because of her physical abilities.

The ones we have have two snaps on the tabs and several (I wanna say six but I'm not sure and not near one) on the front to allow for a good fit. We prefer the snaps as our little one quickly learned how velcro works. He likes to "help" with the diaper, and so far he can't undo the snaps.

They don't lock into place in the tray, so they might not want to stay in place. When you have all 7 in place, they are nice and snug, but I still think you might want to try a large rubber band length-wise around them. I really love them, though. Still using them, and the snap shut hasn't loosened at all.

I order these replacements having the same issue...I had to send them back and purchase fabric to make my own. I still have not found replacements that will fit.

If they fit around your baby's waist. These are snug around my 5 month olds waist, but have used them with a snappi.

These are average size inserts i have my Grovia shell on the smallest snaps and they fit so you might have to fold it down a bit for a newborn one

I tried it on our 18" American Girl doll and they fit. They do not fit on a bitty baby.

They fit easier in some of the holes for me than they do others. But not good fits by any stretch of the imagination. I have not tried to change them yet, but the only options I came up with are 1) sand down the pegs a little to adjust fit. 2) sand out peg holes to adjust fit. Or 3) grab some good lumber and make a new top for my mini-bench. If you go for the sanding, I think a high grit on the pegs would be the easiest option. Just wrap it around the peg and twist it back and forth an check frequently for fit so that you don't remove too much material. Hope this helps in some way.

I agree with Samara G. The straps are not easy to adjust. The stroller is great otherwise. I would not recommend the Snap 4 if you need to use it regularly for children that are very different in size. For older children that don't need to have the straps pulled tight in order to sit comfortably/safely it would probably be fine.

I'm thinking no..... she probably needs a bigger set. I bought them for twins that were in sizes 5 ~6.

You could squish them in but the snap lock isn't that good. It might pop open. I would definitely think of another option. Sorry

As I said in the past the cover get bigger with the past . so get the smallest one that will fit then it wil "grows" Add snap on then you are ok
