Forget gDiapers ... found the perfect Cloth Diaper!

Ok, so recently I decided to try cloth diapers and was disappointed in both the gDiapers and the Gro Baby diapers for various reasons.

I went with the all-in-two diapers above because you can actually change the insert (absorbent part of diaper) so the cover can be used multiple times.

Well, I found the otter blotter and these are soooo cute, comfy and comes in dozens of colors.

The woman who makes these is also really nice. She even offered to stitch my baby's name on diapers. :D

Cute! Do you use them with PF's or with the fitteds they sell? I've put CDing on hold because DS is just so big and the CD's were making him so much bigger. Are these thin?

You don't need the prefolds or the fitted 'cus the diaper is a combo cover w/ snap-in insert. You can remove the insert w/o changing the cover so you don't need to launder the cover so often, just the insert.

Same concept as gDiaper and Gro Baby.

Here's what it looks like w/ an otter blotter on so u can see for yourself if it's bulky or not.

There are cute but very pricey. I still use mainly prefolds and thirsties wraps w/ some bum genius and fitteds I made.

What did you start with. How many covers and how many inserts?

I have just 4 covers and about 12 inserts. That's all you really need if you do laundry 2x a week.

Since there is a waterproof liner built into the cover you can reuse the same cover, just change the insert, the entire day.

I als love that the fastener is hidden so DS can't pull his diapers off. :)

You can put prefolds in there too. I've used doublers and prefolds when I ran out of inserts.

Wow they are more expensive than bumgenius which I thought were pricey. I do like the idea of the snap in insert so you don't have to change the whole diaper. How does it work with big poops?

It works well. I haven't had any blowouts 'cus everything seems to cling to the insert. The insert I got is made of sherpa so it's nice and soft but also easy to spray the poo off it.
