All About Cloth Diapers

{guest post by Mindy Lester} Applecheeks diapers come in an “envelope cover” style, which make it like a pocket style diaper complete with snap closures. Unlike most “pocket” style diapers, the opening to stuff the diaper is closer to the middle of the diaper, rather than in the front or the back and the lining [...]

Guest post by Drea Lamson The newborn Sweet Pea diaper cover has been one of my favorites! It fits babies from 6-12 pounds. There’s one set of rise snaps for a more customized fit. This cover was an excellent fit fully snapped on my newborn son.   At birth he was 8 lbs 4 oz and [...]

Guest Post By Julie Kieras – from A Year With Mom and Dad I was excited to have the chance to review the new Smart Bottoms Smart One 3.0 for All About Cloth Diapers (received free for review purposes), as I’d used the original Smart Bottoms diapers several years ago. I had a great experience [...]

One of the most popular cloth diapering questions is, “What do you recommend to diaper a newborn?” Cloth on a newborn can be fun and ADORABLE, but also tricky. Many don’t want to waste their money on a diaper that isn’t going to fit from birth, will aggravate the umbilical stump, or is going to [...]

guest post by Mandy Mooneyham Do you love fitteds, prefolds, or flat diapers?  There are tons of reasons to chose these types of diapers, but most mamas need covers, especially for night.  The options run from PUL to breathable wool and fleece.  Love cute fluff?  Are you on a budget?  Then read on!

One sized cloth diapers are great but they usually don’t start fitting well until your baby is at least 12lbs. This creates a dilemma for new parents:  Buy newborn cloth diapers or use disposables until baby fits into one-sized diapers. I am elated to have found a solution to this dilemma! Peachy Baby cloth diapers [...]

The hybrid fitted by Macaroni Diapers is a great choice for the average to smaller toddler and children with a shorter rise. Tagged as a one-sized diaper, I appreciate that the listed weight range is 10-30lbs.  Macaroni Baby doesn’t pad the range and therefore doesn’t mislead. Camden is right at the 30lbs mark and has [...]

Review written by my trusted reviewer and experienced cloth diaper mom, Mandy.  Photos are of Camden and not Mandy’s daughter Anna due to upload problems.  Moraki is a family run business out of Southern California that makes a fantastic diaper! Moraki are one size diapers that can be used as a pocket or an all [...]

I love cloth diapering a newborn. I’m pretty sure it’s because the diapers are so tiny and cute! I have a variety of brands in Finley’s stash. Ragababe, Tangerine Baby, Sbish, Lil Joeys, Little Boppers, Mutts, Short Rounds, Goodmama, EcoPosh and Sweet Pea Diapers. What is most interesting about cloth diapering my 4th newborn is [...]
