Huggies Little Snugglers fit issues for chunky babies?

8lb 14oz at birth, now 11lb at 5 weeks. Huggies feel tight already. Pampers Swaddlers seem to fit better. Anyone confirm?

Verified: Huggies' size 1 fits ~12% narrower at the waist than Pampers' size 1 per our 2025 fit study. For larger newborns, Pampers tends to fit longer. For long-and-lean newborns, Huggies fit better.
