How do I choose the right diaper size?
Go by your baby's weight, not age. Weight ranges overlap, so if your baby is at the top of one size and the bottom of the next, the bigger size usually fits better, especially at night.

XXL is the biggest regular baby size. It fits babies and toddlers from about 15 to 25 kg, usually around 2.5 years and older. It is mostly sold as diaper pants.
What does diaper 'size 2' mean in India?
Numbered sizes come from US and European brands. Size 2 is roughly 5 to 8 kg, which matches Small (S) in Indian sizing. Size 3 is about Medium, size 4 about Large, size 5 about XL and size 6 about XXL.
