I figured it was time for a cloth diaper update. It has been about 2 months since I first started and I have to say...
I LOVE IT!
I really do. It's a lot more fun than I thought it would be. I know that may sound weird, but there's just something about your baby wearing bright, bold colored diapers and always having a cute little bubble butt. It makes my heart melt. We still only use Fuzzibunz One Size diapers. We currently have 13, which really works well for us. Eisley goes through about 6-8 a day. I am washing diapers every night after she goes to bed. Ideally I'd like to get maybe 4-6 more, then I could wash them every other day but that's just a luxury right now.
The first couple weeks, we kept experiencing leaks from the leg holes. I was really bummed out for a while and desperately tried to find a solution. After readjusting the elastic in the legs to a looser setting (which doesn't sound right, but we were experiencing compression leaks) and stripping them. things have been great! The only time we have leaks is if I'm dumb and forget to change her for like 2 and 1/2 hours :/
She still wears disposables at night. She is a super heavy wetter. I've tried different systems with her Fuzzibunz (double stuffed, triple stuffed, you name it) but it just wasn't absorbing enough. Through some research I've found that the brand Sustainablebabyish makes an Organic Bamboo Fleece Fitter Diaper (whew, that's a mouthful). It has got rave reviews and tons of people claim it is there "nighttime go-to" diaper. It comes with a 3 layer bamboo fleece doubler. So I ordered the diaper as well as a hemp doubler and will soon be ordering a wool cover. Hopefully that will solve our nighttime leaks and we can finally be rid of disposable diapers FOREVER!!!
I will do a review on the Sustainablebabyish diaper once I receive it and test it out!
