Goodmama...

Any good? We're a long way off from needing OS, but there's a sale so I thought about picking up one or two cute ones. Worth it?

I have 2 goodmamas I got used, and I like them. 

Side note, we are using them occasionally without the inserts for my toddler, and calling them "panties with buttons" to help be more absorbent than panties while she's trying to PT.

I have had a few of them. I don't really like them, but many do. I find them sooooooo tiny. Even their one size is tiny. Plus it's not as absorbent as other WAHM fitted in a similar category. However, with that said I think they are fine for smaller babies and for a daytime fitted with a cover. For overnight or coverless, not so much. I end up liking my TT's much better for those purposes.

Excellent point.  My toddler is tiny, and has never been a heavy wetter.  They are heavy enough for her, since she has just barely outgrown the absorbency of a freetime for ON.  They also currently work fine for my 5 month old, but I prefer sbishes for her since she's a heavier wetter.

Yeah. I liked Goodmama's for Rosie over TT's. TT's were HUGE on her and she wasn't a heavy wetter at all, so Goodmama's worked well. Cade though is Mr.Chunk and needs all the absorbency he can get.

Thanks all for the input. Is minky good for diapers? I know it feels nice on a blanket but would it be too hot on a little bottom living in the south?

TJ1979

I don't have any minky dipes, but I've heard numerous complaints that they wick more.

Depends where the minky is. I have a minky TT that I love. Cade's butt ends up so cute and fluffy you just want to pet it. However, if the minky is on the inside then no go.

"Minky inners mean no wicking and super soft comfort! Includes a thirsty 3+3 fleece soaker topped with deliciously soft minky."

That would mean the inside of the diaper, right, which would be bad? Sorry to play 20 questions, I'd hate to buy something just because its cute and it end up not being functional.

I don't find my goodmamas small and my daughter used to sleep in them. Mine are all older, though.
