How to measure for longies.

So, I didn't realize this, but there are a lot of mamas out there that don't know how to measure their little one for longies. It's something easy that any mama with a tape measure can do to insure a great fit for thier little one.

First, you do the waist measurement:

Starting at the belly button, go around the smallest part of the trunk.





Next comes the hips. When picking a size, it is best to fit to the hip measurement.

While wearing the largest diaper owned, measure around the widest part of the hips.



Finally, measure for the rise.

Starting at the belly button, measure down, between the legs and back up to the point on the back that is parallel with the bellybutton. It helps to imagine a line running straight into the belly button and coming out the other side.



And Whola! You've measured your baby for longies!
