Wool Cover Size Guide

Which Wool Cover Fits My Baby?

All SweetPea wool covers are sized by baby weight. Use the table below to find the best match, then read the fit tips underneath — because a great fit isn't just about the numbers.

Size & Weight Chart

Cover Baby Weight Approx. Age Best For
Newborn –  Wool Cover (currently not in stock) ~1.5 – 7 kg Premature – ~3 months Tiny newborns & preemie babies who need a snug, trim fit from day one
Simple & Start OSFM ~3 – 15 kg ~Birth – 18 months Everyday daytime use; adjustable snaps grow with baby from newborn to toddler
Night & Toddler Plus ~8 – 20 kg ~6 months – 3+ years Heavy overnight protection & toddlers who've outgrown the OSFM

Age ranges are a guide only — every baby grows differently. Always fit to weight first.

Fit Tips

  • Slightly loose is fine. If the OSFM looks a little roomy on your newborn, that's normal and built-in — it will grow with your baby and maximise the life of the cover.
  • Stature matters. A chunky baby may move up a size sooner; a long, lean baby may wear a size longer. Check leg and waist fit, not just weight.
  • Overnight & heavy wetters: Move to the Night & Toddler Plus once your baby needs a lot of absorbency at night — the extra-wide bum coverage fits over bulkier inserts and fitted diapers.
  • Rise snaps: Each cover has multiple rise snap settings. Start on the smallest rise and move up as your baby grows — you'll get months of extra wear.
  • Crossover snaps on the OSFM help close the waist gap on newborns for a trim, leak-free fit.

Still Not Sure?

A few questions that can help you decide:

  • Is your baby under 3 kg or premature? → Newborn Cover (sorry, currently not in stock)
  • Is your baby 3–7 kg and you want one cover to last? → Simple & Start OSFM (a loose fit in early weeks is totally normal)
  • Is your baby 7–15 kg and leaking at night? → Night & Toddler Plus
  • Is your baby 14 kg+? → Night & Toddler Plus
