I think I've been putting the Kissaluvs on wrong. Would someone please explain to me the correct sequence of snapping? I basically just snap until it's tight and have lots of snaps leftover. I used to think I was fairly intelligent, but this sucker is getting the best of me.

Also, DS is a skinny little guy. We have the FB in a Large, but the waist is too big. I've been criss-crossing the top snaps to make it smaller and that seems to do just fine, but I'm wondering if I should just go with a different size. Is the waist smaller in the petite toddler?

By the way, I think I've made some headway with DS. I was cutting up fleece for liners the other day, and for some reason this seemed to make him really happy. Maybe it was because I only spent $1.50 on a remnant instead of buying them.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who has trouble with snaps! I never can get them quite right. I like the fitted diapers, but snaps on a squirming 10mo old are tough! I tend to stick with my cpf's because they are quicker and easier for me right now. Sorry I don't have any answers for you. :)

Well you snap one wing and then snap the other, overlapping the wings if necessary.

If it stays on and doesn't leak, you're doing it right! :)

Kissaluvs has a pretty good photo gallery that'll show you how to snap them: http://www.kissaluvs.com/photos_diapers.htm Click on any picture to enlarge it. There are quite a few that show the snap configuration fairly close up. Basically like Beth said, snap on wing then the other. I always snap the wing with 3 snaps first. Amy Grace is still wearing the size 1 snapped pretty tightly so I have the wings overlapped. The 2nd wing snaps on top of the 1st wing. I believe that the size 2 work this way as well. HTH!

Actually, I figured out what I was doing wrong. I had the stupid thing wrong side out. DUH!!! Can I blame it on early pregnancy hormones?
