What does size 1 in diapers mean?
8-14lbs

Do bigger diapers absorb more?

In what range can newborns see clearly?
Your baby sees things best from 8 to 12 inches away. This is the perfect distance for gazing up into the eyes of mom or dad (a favorite thing to do!). Any farther than that, and newborns see mostly blurry shapes because they’re nearsighted. At birth, a newborn’s eyesight is between 20/200 and 20/400.
What diaper size is most?
First things first: Diapers are sized by weight and not by age. Most babies will start in the Newborn size (which also has a cut-out in the front for the umbilical cord) then ultimately spend the majority of their diapering days in size 4, the most popular size on the market.
How do I know if diaper is too big?
Try the next size up in diapers to see if it absorbs better and fits your baby more comfortably. If leaks stop and it looks like a better fit, your baby was most likely ready to move up. If you notice excessive gapping at the legs and waist, the diaper may be too large for your baby.
Does a bigger size diaper hold more pee?
As babies get older, their bladder size increases and they can hold more pee. Diaper companies know this, so larger sizes are designed to hold more urine. By sizing up your diaper, you’re basically increasing your absorbency.
