Has anyone tried these and if so what do you think of them if I were to get some what size should I get for my 2 month old who is 14 pounds 3 ounces and has chubby thighs.

: I wonder if they're as trim as the pockets...

 

[foxyBFer]

i just ordered a couple from diaperware...will keep you all posted. i can't wait for my fluffy mail! (i never thought i could get so excited about diapers

!)

 

[mom2mygirls]

yeah please do thinking about ordering some to try I think Iam going with a medium because that is what he is in in the pocket.

I love the fit of the aio but I do not like how long it drys this will be the third dryer cycle so I wont be buying anymore of these due to that.

You can turn them inside out and cut the drying time by quite a bit

 

[ChristiansMomma]

I like them. I just turn them inside out and they dry faster then my Magic Alls! They are alittle bulky IMO

 

[mom2mygirls]

thanks for the tip Ill try that and see if I can get them to dry faster that way

I would get a medium.

 

[jnmom]

I'd get a medium. I bought a large that just fits my 20lb son.

The dry time is long. I hang it outside and it is damp when I take everything inside, but if I hang it inside after that it'll be dry in a couple hrs.

ok...here's my verdict...

the small's were almost too small. it barely fits DD and she's 13 1/2 lbs. that being said...it leaks. it's microfiber so it doesn't need to be repeatedly washed for absorbency, but i did anyway, and it still leaked. i usually love swaddlebees. they usually fit DD perfectly. these seem to be cut smaller than their other diapers. so, i decided to give it another try and got the mediums. guess what...they leak too. it's not size, it's not washing, it's not fit, so not sure what's wrong with them. i'm pretty bummed cuz they are sooooooooooooooooooo soft. i'll try them out since i have them, but DD just can't be in them for very long. lots of wet laps around here when she's worn them.

We have been trying one on Kylie 9 weeks old and Emma 21 months old, REALLY like it , it is trim but from what I am hearing if you have any leaking don't fret it just takes LOTS of washings. It is really cute and trim : )

 

[foxyBFer]

good idea...i'll keep washing and see if it helps. i thought with the microfiber that it wouldn't make a difference how much i wash them? i don't want to give up on them cuz they are so cute and soft. they are super trim, too which i like.

I was wondering if you added anything extra in the pocket?

 

[foxyBFer]

no, i didn't. will that help?

I have never used a sb aio but just microfiber never worked well for my dd.
If I was using one i would add hemp in the pocket (or more mf if i didnt have hemp)
I really wanna try one.

 

[Adamsmama]

I love them. I put a little hemp oval (HH Stuffin oval) in the pocket. I love the trim fit of these. I also turn them inside out to dry.

Isn't the skin layer cotton? That might make a difference.

I am so tempted by these! Do you think my husband would believe I made them myself?

The layer next to the skin? It's velour.

I love Swaddlebees AIOs but it's almost infuriating how many washes it takes before they stop leaking around the crotch area. The 2 I bought 6 weeks ago are just becoming reliable, and the other 2 that are almost 3 weeks old are still leaking. I have *no* idea what causes the leaking/wicking, or why washing helps, but it does. I still think it's worth it, because they are so cute, the fit is great, and I love the combination of microfiber soaker with cotton velour lining.
