trimmest one size pocket?

post #1 of 11
Thread Starter 
Hello. What are your recommendations for the trimmest one size pocket? I need to add about 10 more diapers to my stash to replace ones that are no longer working. I just had a new baby so I need something to fit now. Thanks!

Swaddlebees are really narrow through the crotch if that's what you're looking for. They do tend to bulge in the front quite a bit on the smallest setting though. The insert is a hemp/OBV combo that is really thin, so that helps it not have too much bulk.

Though I haven't tried them, I have heard nothing but good about the Fuzzi Bunz one size. They are trimmer through the crotch than the sized FBs.

I am a BG fan, myself. I love the 3.0s with aplix. They are not super trim, but much trimmer than a few others I have tried, including the Happy Heiny one size.

I really like the Rumparooz one size, also. They snap down very small and work on tiny babies sooner than most one size diapers. Katydids are reviewed to fit similarly.

I have to say that I don't care for the Baby Kangas. I have one and it's the last diaper I reach for - after all the pockets, fitteds, prefolds & flats are dirty. I think it's just the way the diaper is designed with the zippered pocket opening in the front that I don't like.

I get serious wing droop with Baby Kangas. I want to love them, but they drooped terribly on my slim DD, and they're somewhat, but not completely, better on my very solid DS...

The FB OS isn't my favourite one-size overall, and I suspect that's because I haven't yet got it adjusted perfectly, but I agree for a newborn it's a great choice, and has longevity too.

Another vote for the new Fuzzi Bunz OS. You adjust the elastic instead of snaps, so it's much, much easier to get a good fit than with other OS's, IME. I only just discovered them and my DD is two and pretty much out of diapers, but I want to get a full stash of FB OS for my next!

Oh, and I loved the trimness of Swaddlebees, but they leaked like crazy on my DD. She has skinny legs so if your baby has chunk they will probably work fine. But they leak around skinny thighs.

Swaddlebees Econonappie is pretty trim. Most others, it depends on how you stuff them. We've always used the full set of inserts in the Rumparooz so they are our bulkiest diaper. Happy Heiny isn't real bulky. I am also not in love with the Baby Kangas.

Of the ones I have, the haute pockets are trimmer (though I had one that de-laminated itself and got ruined, but the others are fine). I do quite like the bumwear ones though, which have a thigh snap. I used the on dd1 when she was a large, and they work pretty good in smaller nb sizes too (dd2 now 3 mo). Not the trimmest as they poof out a tad.

The Easy Fit from Bummis is super trim, much more so than my 3.0's. The aplix is also super strong, I haven't had any of the typical aplix issues..
dd is 10 months and is on the med snap, they look like they will fit her well for quite a long time, seem really well made too.

Another vote for the FuzziBunz OS! They fit my DD great, with no bulk or super bubble butt! And I have never had a leak issue with them, which is a plus because she is a super soaker! The elastics are very easy to use and once you get them adjusted properly you won't have to worry about it for awhile. You keep them in when you wash them so no taking them out then putting them back in all the time.

I have several Fuzzi Bunz OS and I do not like them. Unfortunately, I have quite a few of them! I really like my Rocky Mountains! They are very trim and I have not had any wicking problems like I do w/ my FB. I find that my Rumparooz and Happy Heinys are great night time diapers but are very bulky.
