HELP Me find the perfect diaper

post #1 of 7
Thread Starter 
I need some help in finding the perfect (in my mind at least) diaper. So here are my needs

1. Only natural fibers
2. Fitted diaper to fit my 18ish pound and growing 9 month old
3. strongly prefer velco/aplix to snaps but if all else is what I want, I'll bend on this
4. I want it to be sturdy. We used thirsties fitteds on her already and they fell apart
5. Inexpensive. Like $13/diaper is the absolute max I can do

I don't feel like this should be too hard to find but I'm having a real hard time finding a diaper to meet these requirements. Please help.

Motherease Sandy's, if you don't mind sized diapers. I found them great for my heavy-wetting boys, although I did need the booster liner for them.
You can get a special-price trial offer from them - and 1 diaper, booster and cover.
But, they are snaps.
I used almost only prefolds with my 3 kids, but if I had $$ to supplement my stash for another baby (as some of the prefolds are really starting to be unusable) then I would go for Sandy's.

Check out Under the Nile's fitted diaper. We have one that I like, its held up well, and seems to meet your needs.

My all time Fav fitteds are clovers! I have tried so many fitteds. The meds fit a huge size range my dd has been in them since 15lbs and she is 32lbs and still fits into them. Also they have a lifetime warrenty which is amazing! They make their diapers in Ohio with all USA made org cotton. You can get a brand new org T-fitted diaper for $9.85! I have the org velour and they are even great for overnight with their T-bone dbl. They aren't velcro though They are side and front snaping. Let me know if you have any questions. Here is the site if you are interested:

Here is your checklist with answers

1. Only natural fibers- YES
2. Fitted diaper to fit my 18ish pound and growing 9 month old-YES
3. strongly prefer velco/aplix to snaps but if all else is what I want, I'll bend on this-NOT VELCRO BUT SNAPPED(front or side)
4. I want it to be sturdy. We used thirsties fitteds on her already and they fell apart- VERY STURDY AND LIFETIME WARRENTY
5. Inexpensive. Like $13/diaper is the absolute max I can do- YES, $9.85 for the T fitted(made from stretchy organic interlock knit fabric)

I haven't personally used these, but I have heard good things about Snugglebottoms and Snug-to-Fit Supremes.

Green Mountain Diapers has a prefold fitted with aplix. It's listed as fitting until 20 lbs, but they are supposed to be getting more sizes next month. The price is right at $9.95 for first quality and $7.95 for seconds, and since they diapers are made from prefolds, they are 100% cotton and will be sturdy dipes that should last a good while.
