Fuzzibunz xs vs. Bumgenius xs

villegasemily

We are expecting baby number 2 in February.  I already have a pretty good fluff stash but I was thinking about adding a few newborn diapers to use at night. We did GMDs with Lil' Joey covers which we liked a lot, especially during the day.  I just think I want an easy AIO or pocket for night. We tried Swaddlebee's and Thirsties size 1 but I am not in love.

Did anyone use either of these? I like that you can add inserts to the Fuzzibunz but I like that the Bumgenius is aplix...any other suggestions? My last kiddo was a heavy wetter so I would prefer a diaper that we can add to.

Thanks mamas

I haven't used FB, but our daughter was out-peeing the BG overnight in just a few weeks.  What about blueberry simplex aios?

I am up for suggestions Tell me what worked for you. I am looking for something that I can use right away and that will work on little babies. My daughter was 6 lbs, 5 oz. I like the AIOs but they didn't fit her until closer to 4-5 months. The sweat pea AIOs look so soft and nice. I love that they have a pocket and aplix!

NB Aios should fit within the first 2-3 weeks.  We preferred prefolds, fitteds, and covers.  We used Nicki's brand (Imagine) for fitteds and prefolds, and liked rumparooz newborn covers.

We had both and hated the FB xs. There are no hip snaps on the xs so the leg holes were huge and I had a chunky thigh baby.

Yes, the BG xs absorbency isn't very much but nothing a mini doubler (made my own) or a cloth wipe couldn't handle just laid into the diaper. That worked perfectly until we were ready for OS diapers.

We liked both of these for DD. She started to outgrow the absorbency around 5-6 weeks but the fit was great for both of them. The FB were kind of annoying to stuff IMO because the pockets are so small, but we only had 3 so it wasn't that bad. Lil Joey AIOs were our absolute favorite- and really absorbent for us- but she outgrew them around 5 weeks too. We had one happy heiny mini that we loved also. A little more expensive I think but you can add absorbency and it's aplix.
