3 actually!!
I bought 2 used, and scored 1 new!
CHC diapers are One Size fitteds.
HERE is one place you can get them. HERE is another.
One of the ones I bought used has shot elastic, so I will have to replace it before I can actually put it to use, but I do that anyway through my Hyenacart store (Daisies) so it's no big deal.
The other one I had originally bought for Tommy, it has a robot print, but alas, he's ginormous, so it doesn't fit him well. Which is not Clover Hill's fault, it's labeled as: 10 lbs to 35+ lbs, and I CAN put it on Tommy, but it just doesn't fit well. The rise is too low, the thighs are too tight, he's just a big 38-40 lbs baby.
I got REALLY lucky and scored a Bubble Gum Giraffe for 7. I LOVE the print, and it's hard to find... ok well, maybe not necessarily HARD to find, but EXPENSIVE to find. So rather than spend the $20 a yard on the fabric, I just paid $20 for the diaper already made :)
The Bubble Gum Giraffe is a T&T which means it's turned & topstitched rather than serged edges.
It has a snap down rise with 2 settings, and a crossover tab with 2 settings.
7 is just under 10 lbs, but she's a skinny 10 lbs due to her previous eating issues, so it's still a bit loose on her legs, but it fits well on the waist.
The inside of the diaper is made from a super soft, orange CPV (Cotton-Poly Velour) and the 2 part petal-soaker is topped with the same CPV, but uses OBF (Organic Bamboo Fleece) as the absorbent material.
The 2 petals each have 2 layers, so I can remove the bottom layer if I want to, but since it's a fitted, I can't see me ever doing that, however, I do still like having them separate like this to make my wash cycle more thorough and my dry cycle shorter.
Overall this diaper is very well made, extremely functional, and will fit 7 for a very long time.
