This is a Cloth Diapering 101 Series. You can click on these links to see the other post. Cloth Diapering Terminology

There are so many different brands to choose from. I couldn’t even begin to list them all. I am going to list some of the most popular brands as well as the ones I have tried. Click on any of the photos to be taken to the product. Most of these diapers come in a lot of different colors and/or patterns. If you follow the link, you will be able to look through them.

OsoCozy Unbleached Birdseye Flats-
These are great for burp cloths and changing pads. They are my least favorite thing to use as a cloth diaper. They will work in a pinch but I would recommend the Prefolds instead.

OsoCozy Unbleached Prefolds-
Again I love Prefolds for burp cloths and changing pads. I do not like to use them for diapers. I do use them when I run out of other diapers They are a very inexpensive way to cloth diaper. You will need a diaper cover.

Thirsties Wrap-
These are diaper covers. You will need Prefolds to go with these. I do not have any of these but I have heard from several people that they are great.

Econobum-
This is a nice package of Prefolds and covers. If you are on a tight budget or you want some backup diapers, I would recommend these.

Snappi-
If you buy Prefolds or Flats, I would definitely get some Snappi’s. They are used instead of pins. You no longer have to worry about poking your baby.

Mother’s Ease One Size Cloth Diapers-
These are one step up from Prefolds. They are contoured and snap into place. Then you cover them with a diaper cover. I recommend using the Mother’s Ease Cover.

Mother’s Ease Snap in Inserts-
These snap into the one size diapers. I use these with every changing, not just at night.

Mother’s Ease Cover-
The covers work really well. In my experience they do not leak. I think they are kind of a pain to put on. They can be used with Prefolds or Mother’s Ease One Size Cloth Diapers with or without Mother’s Ease Snap in inserts.

I do not use the Mother’s Ease System for Xanthe unless I run out of other diapers. I do use it for Nathan at night though. I use the One Size Cloth diaper, a Snap in Insert and the XL Covers.

Flip System-
I really like these. You just stick the insert into the cover and then snap on the cover. If the mess doesn’t leak onto the cover you can reuse it with a new insert. Usually if Xanthe poops it leaks for me. If she pees I can reuse the cover. If you were going to exclusively use these. I would think you would need one cover for every time your child usually poops and two covers for the remainder of the day for each day in between washing. You can use Prefolds with these covers too.

Gdiapers-
I have never tried these, but I am considering buying some. I have heard good things about them. You can use them with their cloth inserts, Prefolds or you can use their biodegradable disposable inserts.

Gdiapers Inserts-
Use these with the G-diaper covers.

Gdiapers Biodegradable inserts-
I have never used these but they sound great for on the go.

GroVia Shell-
This is another diaper cover. I have one. The fabric is super soft and there are lots of fun prints but I do not love it. It is really narrow in the legs and I think it is kind of hard to get on. I do know a few people who love these diapers. You will need GroVia Soakers, Prefolds or GroVia BioSoakers to use with these.

GroVia Soakers-
This a reusable insert for the GroVia System.

GroVia BioSoakers-
These are disposable inserts for the GroVia System.

Rumparoos-
These are Pocket diapers. As soon as I saw these I loved them. The fabric is soft and they are very absorbent. After awhile though they started to smell funny and at 25 lbs Xanthe has already grown out of them. They are also the most expensive out of all the diapers I have bought.

BumGenius Designer Series-
These are pocket diapers. I like these. They are my least absorbent diapers but also my trimmest and they dry super fast.

Happy Heiny’s-
These are my very favorite diaper. They are a pocket diaper. They absorb like a disposable. They keep the liquids away from babies bottom. They are pretty bulky though, so if you want a trim diaper, you should probably go with something like BumGenius.

BumGenius 4.0-
These are pocket diapers. I like these. They are about the same as the other BumGenius. They are trim and dry very fast. They are not super absorbent though.

Fuzzibunz One Size-
This is a Pocket diaper. I have never used them but I really like the Fuzzibunz perfect size. They are a lot like BumGenius.

Fuzzibunz Perfect Size-
This is a pocket diaper but you buy a specific size. I have the smalls. They are nice because they fit Xanthe a lot better when she was small then the One Size diapers. They are very similar to BumGenius. Xanthe grew out of them pretty quickly though. Personally I wouldn’t by Perfect Size in Medium or Large. To me it would make more sense to just buy the One Size diapers instead.

GroVia AIO-
I did not like this diaper at all. The legs are very narrow and it leaked out the legs. My biggest issue though was that it snaps backwards and I found it very awkward. I do like the AIO design though and it was very trim.

Thirsties AIO-
I haven’t tried this diaper but I am considering getting a couple.

BumGenius AIO-
I just bought some of these. Thank you Vanessa. I think I am really going to like them. They are nice and trim. A good daytime diaper. I will probably still use the Happy Heiny’s at night though.

Lil’ Joey Newborn Diaper-
I have these. I have mixed emotions about them. They are adorable and they fit great but they leaked sometimes and Xanthe grew out of them really fast. They are great because they are AIO’s but they do take longer to dry.

GroVia Newborn All In One Diaper
I love the fabric on these. Again they are super cute and fit well but they sometimes leak and she grew out of them pretty quickly. They are slightly larger then the Lil’ Joey’s. These are AIO’s as well so they do take longer to dry.
