Just an FYI for everyone here, diaper sizes and their weight/age 'ranges' on the box are not absolute.

We noticed about a month ago that she had really bad diaper rash on and off, and I suggested we switch to size 5 (27 lbs+) because she has a bit of a pot belly and sometimes there were marks on her stomach, even though she was only 22 lbs at the time. Wife was all "Nooo but the box says 27" and how poo will come out because it's loose and whatever but I ignored her and switched her anyway. No diaper rash since then, until a few nights ago when grandma accidentally found the size 4 leftovers and put them on her, and bam - diaper rash.

I personally think the age limits on a lot of baby stuff falls under this - like she can't have this toy because she's 5 months and 29 days, but suddenly tomorrow she can? - but of course your comfort levels may vary.
