I recently tried an Imagine OS cover. I wanted to love it! It holds a padfolded flat in place perfectly. The crotch is nice and narrow and the fit around the waist is nice. Nice price, too. But, I got some red marks on M's thighs from the elastic. It is a tighter elastic than the BB Coverall. His thighs are pretty huge, though.

Just got some Annie Marie padorie OS pockets. I was in her store so I got an Ooga booga and blue one to try. I don't do pockets or snaps, but these are both. Ive wanted an ooga booga print since i started cding with t. Fit was good with a pf or flat stuffed in it. We'll see how they wash up. They could be our new daycare diaper.
If I really can't stand the snaps, I might get a Capri (or 4)

I just started using ODC loops for some daytime changes. I like the simple, side snapping appeal. We are in between sizes with Sandy's, my DH is not the best pinner for snapless diapers and his snappi skills are going to seriously wreak havok on my knits. So, design and fit wise, sized loops are a fantastic addition to my diaper stack. The absorbency is nothing to get excited about--but I don't mind changing often...

Christina, I've never heard of them. They sound fancy, though. haha!
Sondra, I've tried Loops before. I did really like it, it was nice and trim between the legs and really soft. Glad you are liking them! |

Yes I did ;)
TT (thanks Clare)...I am impressed how soft they are, and I like the fit of them on dd. I waited for the last 3 years to try them! I am glad I finally did :) Simplex OS.....I like the fit, and the fact that all of my 3 in diapers can fit it. Nice diaper. Crankypants (girly) ......Also this was on my list for a long time, I am glad that I tried, but now I am afraid that I will like it so much, so I will need another size at some point! So soft! WB skirty....I still didn't use it (It is cold now) but I know I will like it, since I love their wool. Edited by kingapat - 27 Apr 2012 at 5:27pm |

I used a swaddlebees simplex newborn size on DS and it was an awesome fit and cute as can be but held ebf poo about as well as a sposie- not at all. I had the same issue w/ pockets for my ebf babies in the past so not sure why I thought an aio would be better. My los apparently need a pf and gusseted fortress to contain poo.

We got some Imagine OS covers and love them (for the same reason that Clare doesn't like them... they are tighter in the legs so they fit my little girls skinny thighs). They are a nice roomy cover that fits over all my bulky fitteds!
Imagine pocket - love it, it is nice and roomy, able to stuff multiple inserts in it for overnight without the legs gaping like the bumgenius ones do. We tried bububebe fitteds for overnight, I thought they would be great but little girl can soak through them in just a few hours. We got an etsy fitted called Chucklepants and it also is not absorbant enough. A fuzzibunz elite fitted, It's ok but the pocket is skinny and a pain to stuff. Babykicks 3g pocket, this pocket is even skinnier than the fuzzibunz and I can never get the insert to lay nice and flat in it. I have 2 pooters hemp fitteds coming in the mail. I really need to stop shopping but at least I sold a bunch of stuff to pay for it. |

I've finally (after how many years?) tried GroVia shells and am loving the fit with padfolded flats! Snaps are way better than Aplix though. Their Aplix is weirdly strong and hard to get under the little laundry flap that's supposed to hold it. But I like how they hold inserts in place because they aren't slippery PUL.

Don't say that Rebecca!
But, it does sound nice. I had one a long time ago, but didn't padfold much so I traded it. I'm sure I'll try one again eventually. Sounds like everyone has tried some neat things lately! |

I just got this: http://hyenacart.com/stores/clothkick/index.php?c=13
I totally admit that I bought it because it looked adorable. I usually won't pay extra for 'cute'.....but at the price I totally cracked. It haven't used it yet though.

Here's my new stuff so far:
Thirsties Duo wraps (snaps)- I liked the sized covers for DS when he was little, but the Duo wraps are awesome. They have a really nice high rise, it's the only diaper he's on the middle snap setting on right now! Rumparooz bamboo inserts- Holy moly these are absorbent to the max, and the softest thing I've ever felt. This could hold overnight pee from a whale. The only downside is they are $12.00 per insert pack (but it comes with two a small and a large adjustable size) DayGlo Snappi- Same as the old just great neon colors Diaper Sprayer- I thought I knew everything, but the diaper sprayer is amazing! DH couldn't be happer
