Cloth Diaper Report Month 5


How many diapers a day used? average 6

How many wipes? 1-2 per change

What Brands were used? SoftBums, Mud Butts, Go Green, Grovia, Kawaii GNHW & Snazzy Minky & my own Lil Freddys :)

What brand/ style fit best? SoftBums/ AI2 ECHO still I like OMNIs for long trips with a OS bamboo pod, and Mud Butts AI2

Were you able to reuse your AI2 shells during the same day? If so how many times? Yes about 3 times, Really could get by only using 2-3 shells a day.
What fit problems did you have? He is between snaps on his mud butts & kawaii diapers, so they dont snap smoothly.. and most diapers we dont snap the rise.
What was the print/ color you grabbed the most? SoftBums nuclear pumpkin, ebony & lime, then Mud Butt Vikings purple & marigold & still LOVE giraffes, & Grovia airplanes!
Best on the go diaper? Grovia AI2 & SofBums Echo
What type of insert/ soakers worked the best? SoftBums dry touch opods day, then superpod. Grovia staydry soakers next, then the mud butt soakers
The worst? I have some SoftBums bamboo that are wider than others that dont fit good in the echo shells.. thinking about destashing them for the new bamboo opods or new supers.
Overnight? Ive been doing a Gdiaper disposable liner inside a Kawaii GNHW shell, its trimmer than double stuffing. Even though we probably could get by with one mud butt soaker.. He isnt much of a heavy wetter..
Did you have any blowouts? Unfortunatly one, his Viks purple diaper back elastic kicked the bucket and it happen to be the same day he had a major unload.. :/
What was your washing schedule like? Regular wash in hot/ cold cycle 2x rinse, short cold/ cold cycle no detergent, sun dry the stained shells and soakers, machine dry the rest. Air dry most shells, unless i need one right away, washing once a week.
Detergent used? Using All Free & clear detergent bc I ran out of RnG.
Love it or hate it? Love changing his diapers so he can wear the next cute color or print still. Hate how its getting cooler out so he cant just be in a diaper and a shirt anymore.. LOL
Things you learned? You can strip diapers in the washer by putting a squirt of blue dawn in and wash on HOT 2x 2x rinses..
