I know that prefolds shrink down from the brand new square that one purchases, but do they continue to shrink forever and just slowly. While I haven’t measured my prefolds, they seem to be smaller than even the shrunken-“washed” size in the size chart from their point of origin, and where the cover has not shrunk, they seem now to be tinier by comparison … almost unusably so.

I’m wondering if this is a natural aspect of the prefold or if this is abnormal and points to them being mistreated by me somehow.

Does anyone know?
