Longevity of BG 3.0 OS?

[ShineliketheSon]

We have alot of BG 3.0 OS and I really love them on my 3 mo old. I'm thinking of getting a few more but just want to know some opinions on if they are going to still be good velcore wise and size wise till age 2/3? FYI my DD1 used Med FB from 15mo to potty training at 2. So I'm thinking if she follows her sis she'll be the same size. Your thoughts on that?

Can't exaclty answer your question....but we've used our BG 3.0 OS for 10 mo now and the velcro is still in great shape. I've recently started line drying them vs putting them in the dryer hoping that will help keep it great. I do occassionally find tabs have come unstuck in the wash and stuck to something else, but still no complaints.

We've had ours for about 19 months and the velco is definitely not great anymore. The elastic isn't too bad however. They still fit DS fine though- he is 26 months, about 30 pounds.

Thanks! I did buy two more...we still have those Med FB as well as many OS blueberries so even if they wear out I should have plenty by that time. I am going to start line drying them now.

My velcro died a slow and painful death in about 6 months. The elastic lasted about 4 months. I can't have any more BGs in this house.

We've had ours for about 10 months now, and the elastic and velcro are working great. They are a little bit smaller than FB mediums, but they fit DS great at 16 months, 25 pounds.

We have about 6 BG's in the stash that we have been using for about a year. They have worked just fine. The wash tab velcro doesn't work too well anymore and like the other poster said, the tabs become unstuck and I find them stuck to other dipes. Other than that though, they are ok and the elastic has held up perfectly. Really, my only issue is my 15 month old likes to take her diapers off and the velcro makes this easy for her. Thats with any velcro closure though.

I have some that are about 18 months old and the velcro doesn't stick very well any more. I mean, they work but the end curl up a lot and they can come undone easily.

I have 40 BG 2.0s that are now... 28, nearly 29 months old and there still going strong - some of the legs' elastic seems a bit stretched out, so I'm hoping to get some new 3.0s for this new baby (I'm 38 weeks today!), but the 2.0s are still fitting and working perfectly fine for my DS!
