Diapers Diapers Diapers

I have been doing laundry every other day lately, but last night I pushed it to 3 days!  SUCCESS!!  I had enough prefolds and inserts to make it happen.  I ALMOST ran out of covers though.  I recently went to the new CD store here in town (All Things Diapers) and got 2 more covers for free (I was their first ever customer, WAHOO).  I washed those up with the laundry last night, so we shouldn't have that problem again.  Of course I have all the toddler prefolds to go through too if I were to run out, but those are SO big on my big girl!

So, what I have so far:

3 Blueberry one size - 2 snap and 1 velcro.  I love the snaps, but the velcro is so much easier to get on.  Such a dilemma on which to stick with for when Matthew gets here.  They all have leg gussets which I REALLY love.  It helps hold the piddle in without turning M's legs all red.

1 4ward thinking - it's okay, but it leaked BAD the first time I used it.  I was able to get through an entire day with it this past weekend though, so I think I just had it too loose the first time.  I also don't like how it snaps.  I have to tilt Makena to the sides to get it snapped, she wiggles enough without having to do this too!  I like it since it's Halloween themed though.  :D  I'm so vain sometimes!

1 Bumkins - HATE it, enough said.  Okay okay, I'll tell you why.  It is like wrapping my baby in a plastic bag.  It doesn't feel nice, it's noisy, and the only venting it has is on the back, up on the back.  The print is cute though, LOL.  Oh, Makena can whip this one off in 2 seconds too, not cool.  This was surprisingly the first one to start smelling too, which I didn't understand since it was the one with the least to it.  Oh well, the stink is gone after a soak, but still . . .

1 snugglibebe - SO cute and I LOVE it.  It's easy to snap, fits nicely, and she hides the PUL inside so you can have cute prints on the outside.  I also haven't had a problem with leakage or smell.  The snaps were a little tight at first, but now that we've used it a few times, it's good to go!

1 thirsties duo - haven't tried yet (New one)

1 bummis - haven't tried yet (New one)

1 softbums - This one took me a while to get sized correctly to prevent leakage around the legs.  he nice part, it's SO easy to size.  It has a "drawstring" system hidden inside.  I also had to get the fold right for the insert.  It is nice since it snaps into the diaper.  Very nice design.  This one also picked up stink quickly, but has been fine since I did a nice long soak on everything.  Since it has a lining inside it maybe wasn't washed enough before we started to use it.  I also am appreciating their customer service.  I am having an issue with the velcro starting to fray and she is willing to take a peek at it.  Of course it helps that the designer lives in the next town over . . . LOL.   I'll let you know what she has to say or does about it.

1 best bottom - LOVE this diaper.  Like the softbums the insert snaps in, but this one snaps in the front AND back.  Nice when doing a diaper change, but not so nice when you're CHANGING the pad.  Touching the wet pad is SO gross sometimes.  I also like that this one has leg gussets. A definite must.  I would LOVE more inserts for this diaper and perhaps more of this diaper in general.  There is only one retailer for this one though, and she's in Wisconsin.  Of course - it's all online so it doesn't really matter where it's coming from.  I hope to get myself some smaller inserts so I can use this one on Matthew as well.  Granted it will be a couple of months before this one (or any of the one sized) will fit him.
