Diaper Swappers

812ajack · 04-10-2012, 03:02 PM

So my chunky DDhit the 30 lb mark so was outgrowing her OS dipes. I have been using fitteds and covers but decided since we are (hopefully) close to PLing to just buy a few AIO. I got some Bottom Bumpers and some of the new Thirsties Duo AIO dipes. Anyone liking these? So afraid I'm going to regret getting AIO's but figure if they don't work out can always resell

ANy leaks with these? Did you have to stuff the thirsties a lot?

I use the Thirsties Duo AIOs on my 4 month old 18 lber without any additional stuffing. For my two year old 27 lber I need a hemp babies doubler folded in half in the wet zone and that was it. After a little trial and error I found that I did like these. Aplix fit best as snaps left some red marks. I haven't tried the bottombumpers. We use BGs otherwise.

My son is about 33 pounds and we use both of those. The Thirsties are not super absorbant, I have to add a doubler in the pocket or they leak pretty easily. I love the bottombumpers!

They are both aplix which I think will be better for her chunky legs. She's kind-of a heavy wetter so am so afraid I'm gonna be changing her constantly. I hated regular pockets though (and my DH did too) so figured I'd try this instead of something I know we both can't stand.

I have bottombumpers, and love them! My son is an average wetter, though.

I can't wait to get them. It seems like its been so long since I got new dipes. It's so sad what I get excited over now-a-days.

We had absorbancy issues with thirsties, but Bottombumpers are wonderful diapers.
