    Default Minders nappys too small how to approach with mum

    Hi I feel the little boy I mind he is 16 months nappies are too small for him he is already in size 5 as he is chuby, but they leave marks on his bottom and legs o you can see where the elastic was and any creases in tgbe nappy but are OK to do up. Would yoiu mention it do mum or leave it?

    I would just casually say "I wonder if x would be better in size 5+ nappies as these are leaving marks on his legs"

    I would also mention it casually, something along the lines of "When I've been changing him recently I have noticed that there are red marks from the elastic, perhaps he's growing out of that size nappy". Mum has possibly bought in bulk and wants to use them up before she gets a new pack. I've just mentioned to a Dad that his son's wellies (which he keeps at my house) are a bit small now. That doesn't seem as bad because they are kept at mine, but just try not to over analyse it. x
