Did you notice the opening changed the fit at all?

For these do most people get touch tape or snaps? I have some with touch tape but I just ordered an AIO with snaps to compare before I order a bunch more. I'm also so confused about the fabric options. Right now we just have birdseye inner with fleece lining, but I'm thinking of getting the bamboo velour with hemp inner, do you think that would be a lot more absorbent?

I ordered all touch tape for daycare. I haven't received yet but I hope they're good! And I spoke with the person who makes them- she said that hemp/bamboo velour is her most absorbent!

Thanks! Yes, I would be ordering for daycare as well so maybe I should just go with touch tape also, I haven't had any problems with the one we have so far, I just prefer snaps and my dcp doesn't seem to mind

Now that I have about 4 of a few types of AIOs, I'm getting the urge to destash and just have one type of diaper! It's crazy because I just bought them all! Oh well, I'll maybe order a few more NB and if I love them for daycare might just get a whole stash

OP, I got a pack of the AIO, fitted, cover, and it was well worth the price, if you're not in a rush and want to try some out I would suggest that would be a good way to go. I don't love the cover but plan to use it as a swim diaper, but the AIO and fitted are really great!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the snaps have 4 snaps on each side. So I would get touch tape based on that. My NB swim dipes are snaps (so it won't snag baithing suit tops) and it takes forever to snap them all.

You're right, I think that would be a PITA! I'm still gonna wait and see how I like the one I have otw

I've tried the sherpa and the bamboo and they take FOREVER to dry..longer than any diaper I've ever tried. 2 full cycles in the dryer (all other diapers take 1 cycle) plus hung dry overnight. They're not part of my stash anymore for that reason

I loved them otherwise. They were trim, gentle on his legs, and absorbent. I really wish she'd make a quick dry style.

them! You could have her add a doubler for increased absorbency. I put mine in the dryer for 2 cycles then hang to dry overnight on a laundry room clothes line - I do the same with all my AIO's and prefitteds. She's so awesome to work with! I don't have them opened in the back I'm not a pockets type person.

Did you send a size up for prefolds to aio? I'm wondering if I should try this out, but not sure if I should send the prefolds I have or get bigger ones?

onegratefulmama · 10-10-2012, 08:18 PM

I sent in toddler prefolds from nickis diapers (green edge) and they were big enough for m/l and just big enough for L. My second set with the L is on its way! HTH!
