Cloth diapers for little babies with skinny legs

When we first brought our son home he was just under 5 pounds and we knew our "one size" pocket diapers wouldn't fit even at their smallest setting so we didn't even try. Once he reached 8 pounds (when the one size are supposed to fit) I tried them out. Saying they didn't work out is an under statement. They leaked out the legs and the top no matter how I stuffed them, lined them, or fastened them. I was pretty frustrated but I decided to try some smaller, more fitted cloth diapers before giving up. My son's biggest problem is his signature preemie chicken legs so that's what I focused on in my search for a well fitting diaper. My favorite ended up being the Grovia newborn all-in-one.  The reviews of each diaper follow.
