Gdiapers...what's your opinion?

Rochell

I seem to read some mixed reviews - my MIL bought me some Gdiapers to add to my stash and they look really good and comfortable -

For those who did have success wiith Gdiapers, what did you do/alter that worked for you?

For those of you that didn't like them - why? and what better option did you find?

I used them for an out of town trip. I used the disposable inserts. They honestly worked pretty decently, but I don't love them. And I think long term they would be difficult.

Also, i used them on a much less mobile baby and not sure how they would work with a wiggler.

You do have to get the fit right where the liner goes in between the legs in order to prevent leaks, but that is not super hard.

They have cute colors and look cute and are trim.

But, I didn't like that the cover wasn't waterproof .

I had one poop blow out. I didn't have any leaks, but it did wick to his onesie a couple of times.

We are planning on using gDiapers for our little one who hasn't arrived just yet.  I have some friends that use them and they love them!  We didn't purchased the liners from gDiapers though as they were expensive and you only get 6 in a package.  We ended up getting the Gerber prefolded cloth diapers and I cut them in half and then sewed the ends together and they are the perfect size to fit in the small size of the gDiaper.  We saved so much money doing that and my friends say it works just as well.  They did warn me though that they ended up switching to disposables at night because their little girl would pee out of the gDiaper in the middle of the night.

We use gdiapers nearly exclusively and with the gcloth for my now 14 month old and my 2 and half month old - one boy, one girl.    The fit them both well (and they are nothing alike when it comes to their shapes!).   The trick is to make sure you put them on right (follow the instructions on the gdiaper website).   We don't get leaks with poop or pee.  I alternate two covers for each kid throughout the day.  It makes it easier changing them.  I always have other covers ready to go.

Things I like about them:  trim fit, take up very little space in the house/diaper bag, poop/pee is contained in the snap in liner, do up in the back, and they're cute (not that other cloth diapers aren't cute......they're all cute.  I just ordered Dominic a camoflauge blueberry diapers.... can't wait to get it!!).
