I love cloth diapers-- they're cute, they're eco-conscious, and they prevent a traumatic gelsplosion from an accidental disposable in the washing machine. But with most of the pocket diapers I favor clocking in at $19.95 each (or more!), it was always hard to build a solid stash.
So here's the cool thing: We found a collection of All-In-One pocket diapers that can take your baby from newborn to potty training, and they start at just $9.95 each. The company is GoGreen, a WAHM-run enterprise out of Boulder, CO. I found the collection of cloth diapers to have excellent quality and construction through several washings and dryings. Although they also offer a $14.95 Champ diaper that can take your baby all the way up 45 pounds, I was particularly interested in the $9.95 standard diaper, since I've never seen an All-In-On pocket diaper at that price point.
They did not disappoint.
If you're not familiar with All-In-One pocket diapers, the idea is to make cloth diapering as simple as possible. You put an insert in the diaper and snap it on the baby just like you would put on a disposable. It's so easy, even your 14 year-old babysitter can do it, and the diapers use different snap configurations to fit your child from newborn to preschool.
My favorites are the Techno Tushie and Li'l Punk. My son prefers them to disposables, and they have a good fit with no leaks. Most impressively, they keep him dry overnight-- and this is a kid who can fill a disposable to the point of leakage. (Granted, I used two microfiber inserts for bedtime, but that's still quite an accomplishment.) They also resisted staining-- not to mention my preschooler's hijacking for baby doll use. Those snaps can take some punishment.~Delilah
