WAHM Fitted DIaper Review

We ordered these diapers from The Littlest Owl ( can be found on fbook)
They are fitted diapers. ( do require a cover, but I leave the cover off when at home because he changed more often)


They are a little big but I ordered a medium so that we could be in it for awhile. They have cross over snaps which I love.

They have a piece of material that sits in the fitted diaper for extra absorbency. Even though it is big around the legs still we have had no leaks with it. It is very well made and we will be ordering more from this WAHM!

Grovia AIO Review

We recently got a Grovia AIO. They are a great diaper I must say! They are super trim!. There is a flap inside the AIo for extra absorbency plus a snap in liner. It fits babies 10 lbs and up. They come in pink blue and vanilla~

They have side snaps which makes it trimmer and not as bulky.
It is a great diaper! Short Review but a great diaper!! I recommend it to everyone!!

Are Pocket Diapers Easy?

I get asked a lot. Are pocket diapers easy? YES!!!
They are not as easy as a AIO(All In One) but they are super easy.
This is all you do.

  • You wash the diaper once. and wash the insert( part that goes inside the diaper) a few more times
  • let dry
  • then normally with the insert it has a nb setting, a small setting, etc etc. snap it or fold it to the correct setting and open up the pocket that is in the diaper.
  • stuff accordingly.
  • I normally stuff all my diapers at once instead of stuffing as I need them.
  • Then they are ready for use.
  • Sometimes you have to straighten out or adjust the insert once its inside the diaper so its not so bulky.
  • :} see easy as pie!
Examples of Pocket Diapers:
BG 3.0 & 4.0
Fuzzi Bunz Perfect SIze & One Size
Rumparooz
Knickernappies
Happy Heiny
Katydids
Tweedlebugs

Fuzzi Bunz Review!

So I jumped in and got a One Size Fuzzi Bunz, I heard it was trimmer then other one size diapers so I thought I would give it a try

Pros:
  • Fleece inside - The patented fleece layer keeps baby dry and rashes away!
  • Snaps - There are adjustable snaps at the waist and the legs so you can get the perfect fit for your baby. There is a 1 year guarantee on the snaps!
  • Cute bright colors!
  • Adjustable waist and legs instead of snap downs

Cons:
  • The waist adjustables are hard to find
  • If your baby is small it is hard to get a good fit
  • The fleece pocket kind of gapes open and you have to tuck it in
  • Will leak if you dont get a good fit.

Overall I have liked this diaper, granted we have only used it today. Instead of snap downs that normal one size diapers have, Fuzzi Bunz has adjustable legs and waist. It makes them trimmer and you can get a better fit. IT has over 6 adjustable lengths where normal one size only has 2 to 3.

I think I will continue to use it in rotation. I will have to give it a few more tries before I fully decide on if its a love or hate diaper.
