Cloth diapers vs chunky baby thighs

May

Hi everyone! I’m new to cloth diapering and I’m having trouble getting the fit right. My bub is pretty chunky (7.2kgs, 11 weeks old) and I find it difficult trying to fit the diaper shell + insert in between baby’s legs and into the bikini line. Baby also seems uncomfortable when lying on side to feed or nap (with my supervision) 😟

Am i doing the diaper up too tightly? What can I adjust here? Recommendations welcome!

Here are some photo examples:

This is a Bare & Boho diaper with 1 insert

And this is an elskbar diaper with double gussets and one insert folded twice in the front for extra absorbency
