Review on ๐ŸŒบ ALVABABY Mother's Day Baby Cloth Diapers One Size - Adjustable, Washable, Reusable - 6 Pack + 12 Inserts (6DM48) by Stacy Lewis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Cute, inexpensive and absorbent

I have been using these diapers for about 3 months now. I was very hesitant to buy cloth diapers at first, but the price was so cheap that I bought the cheapest pack of AlvaBaby diapers to try them out. I immediately chose them over disposable nappies, mostly because they are so soft compared to disposable nappies! I never thought about how uncomfortable it must be to have that scratchy paper stuff on my skin, especially when I was just born. I liked the first pack I bought so much that I bought another pack or two and then ordered the rest from the AlvaBaby website as they have a lot more options and are a bit cheaper. (They will take a week or two to get to you though.) I have 35 diapers total and wash them in hot water with Tide powder every night. They are in perfect condition and don't even have stains! (Tide really helps a lot with stains). The reason I docked a star was because they say they fit 35lbs but I don't think that will happen for us. My 4.5 month old weighs 18.5kg and ends up snapping on the wings. I hope they make it through the first year and maybe we can potty train him sooner as he is already aware of his dirty diaper. I will update if necessary. Another reason I docked the star was that a pair of diapers would leak when sewn together. I don't understand why it's only a few, but I've noticed it several times. Overall I love these diapers. They are so sweet and do a great job even in the most awkward of situations. *Update* They are still in perfect condition after about 6 months of daily use and overnight washing. I'm upgrading to 5 stars because he's over 22lbs now and the clasps seem to adjust as he grows. We snapped to a medium size so the belly and leg snaps could be reduced by one snap; hard to explain, but I think they will do for as long as we need them. The occasional little leak doesn't seem to be worth a star because disposable diapers blow so much and these never blow. They also don't lick often, especially with bamboo insoles. We love these diapers!
