Favorite covers?

post #1 of 18
Thread Starter 
What are your favorite covers? I have baby beehinds and the diaper covers have cotten around the legs and are almost always wet. I'm looking for something better. Thanks.

I'm new to the game but I LURVE LiteWraps! They are so snug on my baby and I just love, love, LOVE THEM :

Have I said how much I love LiteWraps? Okay...

I like all of the covers made by Mother-ease, Bummis, and Blue Penguin. This time around I'm going to try Mommy's Touch covers because what I really want is a front-snapping cover THAT WORKS, is durable, and comes in pretty colors and/or prints.

Proraps and Dappis are also O.K. and cheaper than all of the above.

I have question about the thirsties covers, they actually look just like the covers I have right now. Are the white on the covers that go around the legs made of cotton? That is where I am getting my leaks. I'm thinking as my son grows I won't have as many leaks, but for now his diapers don't fit snuggly around his legs.

No, it's not cotton, it's lycra, I think. It does wick a tiny bit if my dd has a soaking, sopping wet diaper. We rarely let that happen though, so they work fine for us. I'm new to thirsties. I used to hate them but I have figured them out and now I love them. My daughter has very chubby legs but a small waist. As long as I tuck the gusset up high on her thighs, like where underwear would go, I'm able to fasten the cover so that it fits around her waist snuggly, while still leaving room for her chunky legs. They don't need to be pulled too tight around the legs, this causes red marks for us, so we leave the legs a little loose and it works fine because the gussets prevent leaks. I fasten the velcro so that the tabs point sort of downward, diagonal instead of horizontal. No red marks, no leaks. I love 'em. HTH!

I love diaperaps.


They're similar to proraps, but have a deeper gusset. They're very nice, and the poly ones do not wick. They breathe.

I like the Thirsties and the Bummis Super Brights. They have great colors/prints and I love the gussets.

Another Thirsties fan here, size medium fits my 23 month old and 10 month great!

yep, thirsties and bummis super whisper wrap.

But really my favorite covers are wool wraps! We have lovey bums, natural blue cloud (from etsy), and biobottoms.

Bummis Super Brite
Mother-ease Rikki wrap
Mother-ease airflow
Bummis Originals
Bummis Whisper Pants (the pull-on nylon pants, not the whisper wrap)
Bumpy Day
Litewraps

We have used all those and loved them. We also have Bummis Whisper Pants and Proraps, which we like but don't love. We have also used Diaperaps, Thirsties, and a few others, and not liked them at all.

I've also tried Thirsties, Proraps, Diaperaps, Bummis SWW, and the Toys-R-Us wraps. I like the Super Brites best.

I have used several of the brands mentioned in this thread and I must say non of them made the grade in comparison to Nikky's

They make breathable wool, poly, cotton -- and were my bulletproof cover with gussets. I wished I would have had more.

I should add, we did try bummis and they were too short in the rise and tight in the legs for my dc's. They should have been the right size, but I may just have weird shaped kids!

Another vote for Thirsties.
