Jillian's Drawers Cloth for $10 Review

Okay so I went over what I got and the features of each diaper. Or features I found important enough to mention :) I also kind of stated what I liked about them and didn't like. Some things I didn't mention were that if you double stuffed any of these they would be pretty thick. I see myself moving towards diapers and t-shirts and no pants because they're so cute ;) Also I said I used 2 prefolds and 1 G-diaper microfleece insert but that was wrong. It was 1 prefold 4x8x4 and 2 inserts (4 layers 2 microfleece 2 hemp) with the Thirsties Duo 1 size wrap. The wrap was maxed out with that too. I couldn't make it any smaller, we were on the largest setting with this comibination. The one nice thing about velcro is that right now it's easy to put on and with some diapers like the Tots Bots you can pull all the way to the other tab for a really tight fit. I don't have a problem with the snaps though, even disposables are hard right now because all he wants to do is move. :)

One last thing I want to mention is that some people don't like pockets because you have to stuff them. This is true but there is no diaper other then an AI1 or disposable that you don't have to do something with. AI1's take forever to dry but the newer ones are better because like the Tots Bots and BG their sewn-in inserts come out for fast drying. With prefolds you still have to wrap and pin or snappi (I wanted this to work for price reasons but it's just too much work and too bulky for me), with G-diapers you still have to stuff, with Best Bottoms (not reviewed) or another snap in liner style you still have to snap it in so no matter what you have to do something with your diaper before you can put it on. What's nice about the pocket or an All-in-one is that if the baby is squirming he or she isn't moving your insert around. I find that it is easier and faster to put one of these diapers on but I have not tried the snap in insert style yet.

After looking through the diapers I realized I was wrong about the snap-in insert that goes with the Tots Bots OS AI1 diaper. That extra insert goes with the Tots Bots OS fitted diaper to add extra absorbancy. I'm going to keep this fitted diaper out of the box to try at night because it's really nice and I feel like it will work with maybe the extra soaker and a prefold but I will try just the fitted and extra insert first. I'm waiting until I get another fitted sheet for the mattress incase we leak.
