Two weeks ago I opened my front door to find a big square box from Bumkins. I was so excited that it had arrived and in a fancy box! It was like Christmas!
I had agreed to give the Bumkins cloth diapering systems a try although I had made the assumption that they weren’t going to work for us.

Bulletproof Nighttime Covers
No one wants their baby to wake up with soaked sheets or for that matter soaked sheets on your bed! Finding a cover that works best for your baby can be such a challenge though. For many, a Thirsties cover works just fine. Yet others require something substantially more bulletproof.

When there’s a hole, tear, missing button, or item that needs hemming I’m on it. The simple sewing tasks don’t intimidate me however, making a cloth diaper seems out of my league.
Of course that was before I discovered the dozens of websites explaining in great detail how to sew anything...

NB Proraps: My favorite cover for newborns is a Prorap. Proraps work great over prefolds or fitted diapers and they have a generous umbilical notch. This is a feature that I feel is a must with newborn covers, especially during that first week. The Prorap Classic Diaper Cover is made from a soft polyester...
