For anyone getting ready to try out cloth diapering or for anyone who just wants to bulk up their cloth diaper stash, I would look into these diapers. They are pocket diapers with snaps to adjust sizing. Depending on where you buy them, sometimes they come with only one insert, I tried to only buy the ones with 2 inserts included.
I bought 10 online through e-bay and paid about $5 each including shipping! The colors are bright and cheerful, the snaps adjust to fit size 7 lbs to 35lbs, and after a few months of wear and washing mine still look new! My little guy is 39 lbs and these still fit him on the largest setting. When I ordered mine, they came from China so they took about 2 or 3 weeks to get them, but they were worth the wait for me!
If your baby is a heavy wetter like mine, you will want to use 2 inserts to prevent leaks. I have a hard time using these for night time diapers just because my little guy likes to drink at least one bottle of water at bedtime. For the day these work great for us. You will have to buy a couple and try them out to determine how well they will work for you. To be honest, I still have not found the "perfect" night time diaper for us. With the amount of water we drink, it may be impossible. Most nights he has no leaks but there have been many times I have changed him a few hours after he has fallen asleep just in case.
I wash all diapers by hand when soiled with solids to prevent stains which is probably not necessary but makes me feel better. Then off to the diaper pail they go. Depending on what is going on I wash about every 1 to 2 days.
I do have other brands that I use, but I always reach for these first. I am going to review all the brands and types of diapers I have and post them on this blog. If you have any questions please let me know. I am not compensated in any way for reviewing these, I just want to let other cloth diapering mammas out there know that there are ways to get started in cloth diapering without breaking the bank!!
