Best nappies for chunky bellies (UK)

No matter what size (I've tried smaller & larger size) nappies just don't seem to fit properly around her belly. She's not big at all (25th percentile) but is chunky and it just feels like the front and back of the nappy don't meet which then leaves an escape route for wees at the top of her thighs. Currently using Tesco size 4 which is otherwise perfect in terms of sizing but when she stretches out, the front part pulls right down 🤔 it's hard to explain what I mean but does anyone have recommendations for chunky belly/thigh friendly disposable nappies that preferably don't break the bank or am I doomed until she fits in pull-ups 🥴

I’ve got some pampers size 3 and 4 pull ups so maybe try pull ups and see if that helps??

@Tamsin oh I didn't realise you could get them in size 3! I thought 4 might be a bit big in pull-ups. Will have a look for those, thank you ☺️

I use Aldi size 4 pull ups and they are the best fit for my LBs big belly because the waistband is so stretchy and much thicker than nappies 😁 have also never leaked through

Tesco do size 4 pants we use them and they’ve been the best so far

@L 💜 thank you, I guess if she's in size 4 normal nappies, the same brand pants in theory should be the same fit 🤞🏻

I think the weight is a little higher but I’ve never paid attention to the weight on them. My LB is in size 5 pants and the weight starts from 10kg I believe and he’s not 10kg yet but the size 4 are way too small for him.

@Levi I use size 3 pampers pull ups and they’re perfect! They leave a little mark but it isn’t too tight I think it’s just when they’re laying down and it presses into their belly xx

It doesn’t seem to bother my little one xx

I’d try size 3 and 4 though as the pull ups seem slightly more snug possibly then the strap nappies xx

Try aldis as I use aldis size 4 pull up and they fit like a charm on my little boy

I used Aldi pull ups from size 4 (I think…)
