What works best?

Well after several months of trying different types of diapers I feel more prepared to tell you what is working for us.

The Swaddlebees FITTED diapers work best for us. We buy the organic cotton & velour diaper with a cover. You can buy whatever cover you like but we've been using the "Thirsties" cover which is very thin and has a polyurethane layer so NO LEAKS! But my preference is the Imse Vimse organic cotton cover.......they both have the same shape but the Thirsties is much cheaper! We do have the SB Terry Fitted too which is nice but is no where near as SOFT.

For overnights we put a doubler in the diaper and a raw silk liner and make sure to TUCK IN all the edges of the fitted diaper into the cover. If anything sticks out the pee will soak up to it and onto the clothing and bedding!

Even though Addison's LARGES are too big on her..........they absorb MORE pee at night. If your baby is borderline I'd buy a few mediums for daytime (easier to get around) and then go for the larges at night. You just have to make sure you get the cover SNUG around the legs.

As for washing- SO EASY to wash. Even when soiled beyond just the peeing they are very easy to clean. I just use a raw silk liner ($2 each) and soak that........then throw it all in the washer and dryer.

Cloth diapering is very easy and you feel good knowing your baby has safe natural products against his/her skin- and the environment thanks you too!
