Find me a different cover with a fit like a Prorap!

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
I'm actually really liking my two Prorap covers on my ds. Didn't like them much at all with ds 1. He's in the smalls and I'm finding I'm grabbing them more than my BSWW and Thirsties duos (although he is at the max on the duos right now, 15lbs).

He's got a small waist and chunky thighs and the Proraps are the only ones not leaving red marks on his legs. The deep gussets also allow plenty of room for doubling up at night.

So why don't I stick with Proraps? I want some fun prints or colors with summer coming up since he'll probably be in dipes and t-shirts a lot. I only had white with ds1 at this stage and it was so boring.

I've got a stash of BSWW in the mediums (not really great shape but usable) and I'd like to add to it when he moves up which should be any day considering he's at the max weight wise with all his smalls. I'm looking at some one size like Thirsties duo size 2 and Wonderwrap, because I'd like to add to my size large wraps too (mostly BSWW and Motherease airflows).

We use prefolds and currently I'm not snappying or pinning, but used to with ds 1 and realize I may need to once he's mobile. But I love not using Snappis for now.

I had good luck with no red marks on DD2 fat legs w/the blueberry 1 size. I have the snap verson, dont know if it matters though.

I have very few purchased diapering items at all (since I sew them myself), but for whatever reason, lately I've just NOT wanted to sew up covers, so I have a few Proraps left over from YEARS ago (and yes! I love them!) and I actually *gasp* bought one cover and it's a Thirsties cover.. I think it's very similar to the Proraps (aplix-closing and has gussets). I know they at least come in colors because the one I have is sage green

Well I ended up buying two Thirsties Duos size 2. I'm going to see how they fit and then decide if I want to throw in a couple of Proraps to my stash. At least with the Thirsties I'll have some color.

What's with the buckle on the new proraps?

proraps has a style with buckles - in pastel colors. not new. the fabric is different than the original proraps.

bummis super brites are more similar to proraps - they are thinner than sww, and they have gussets
