I'm going to try this stuff and see if it works for us. The replacement tabs are worth a shot.

Yep, they look worn out in no time. Just this morning I noticed a tab separating on a 2.0. Guess I get to contact customer service now.

Hi Jenn, I emailed you but I haven't heard back yet. Just wanted to make sure you got it.

I emailed about a couple I have issues with too. Let see how it goes.

Oh man! I am sad to see this thread...we just bought a dozen BG 2.0's 2 weeks ago. And we use them all the time. I have noticed the tabs already look crappy...aw, this sucks.

Is this mainly a problem with the 2.0's? I just bought some 1.0's from a mom on ds, one never used, one like new. I just wanted to try these as the haute pocket left red marks on ds's thighs.

The diapers I'm having a tab problem with are 1.0s. I sent an email to customer service and I'm going to be sending them my diapers on Monday (next time I can get to the Post Office). I would be thrilled if they were fixed or replaced.

Oh man I could cry seeing this thread...I just bought 9 of these for my DD and with our budget getting tight as DH and I pay for next semesters classes for school I am not going to be able to afford new diapers anytime soon and needed these to hold up :

My friend had the same issue with the tabs. Mine, however, look great still. I have been using BG for almost a year and no problems. I have never dried mine in the dryer--maybe that wears out the tabs faster? Just a thought.

I don't want everybody to get discouraged and panic. These problems are fixable and the customer service is excellent. Many many people use them with no problems. I have love everything about them except for this, but like I said it's fixable and from what I'm told shouldn't be happening on the new ones.

I had a bunch of 1.0s where the tabs were fraying or separating. I don't sew and don't have a sewing machine, so I emailed Cottonbabies and asked what I can do about it.
They said to just mail them the diapers and they'll either repair or replace.

So I did (in 2 batches, cuz I couldn't part with them all at once!) and they replaced them with brand new 2.0s. I couldn't be happier with the speed and results. YMMV, but I say, if you're having troubles, just email them and lay it all out and they'll do their best to make you happy.

YIKES! I tried these and loved them so much I just ordered 3 more BM 2.0 today! I am keeping this info although I am praying I won't need it. T:

I have 10 bG pockets and 2 bG AIOs for my daughter, and haven't had any problems yet (thankfully). I will say that I do notice some piling on the stretchy tabs, but I launder daily and realize there will be some wear and tear. I am hopeful that we won't have any velcro problems in the future...fingers crossed!

I'm still waiting to hear back from Jenn. I will let you guys know how it goes.

I sent my diapers in to Cottonbabies on Thursday. Today (Monday), I received and email and a phone call to say replacements were put in the mail. I'm really impressed with the customer service. Very friendly, helpful and PROMPT!! I'm looking forward to the new diapers and I'm really hoping the tab issue is resolved. I'll be ordering from them again, even if it's for other CDing products, because I really do appreciate customer service like that.

just to clarify....you are saying this problem can also happen if I line dry my bg's?? I.e., I shouldn't line dry?

Darcy,

I found your email in my spam folder on 6/10 and I sent you a reply very, very early that morning. I sent you another message today (the email you sent this morning made it into my Inbox). Can you check your spam folder and make sure that we're not both getting filtered? I promise, I am not ignoring you.

Thanks, Darcy!
