newborn nappy shopping is a lot of fun!
I have found that I like the really trim nappies in the first few weeks
I loved the thirsties fitteds (they are velour and so soft on bubs) and the thirsties PUL covers in XS (E was born just shy of 4kg and I only started using smalls at 5 weeks). The covers have gussets and are very soft also.
Also loved Raphaels with the thirsties covers.
Both these options are almost as trim as a disposable
