No, not RDA as in recommended daily allowance, although I should probably check that out too. But, RDIA.

There may be a misconception floating around out there. Yes, one sized cloth diapers will fit your child from ~10lbs-35lbs.

Cloth diapers are the easy part of parenting
July 5, 2011
Parenting is hard!! About the only easy part is changing the diapers. Sure there are times when the problems get so bad (rashes, yeast, buildup, ammonia, leaks…) you want to scream. But, at least you could opt for a disposable. When your baby wants/needs to be held all day because of gas, teething or constipation [...]
