Cloth Diapering

BG4.0 vs FB OS?

I really like the idea of OS diapers - but my JD trial came with 2 BG and the FB is the fitted size.  I really like the FB but was wondering what the OS diaper is like and how it compares to the BG4.0.  Thanks!

Re: BG4.0 vs FB OS?

  • I cant give you direct but hope this helps. We have FB OS and BG OS. Both are great now but I think the FB wont last that much longer (size wise) and she is only 18 lbs at a year. If I could do it over I would have all BGs.

  • I have leak issues with FB that I can't seem to resolve. They always leak out the legs- but others seem to love them!

    Thanks - that's really helpful.  I really like the perfect size one and the medium says it works for 15-30 lbs so maybe I'll get a few of those.  It's so hard deciding what I want my stash to be!

  • I have one FBOS and the rest are all BG's.  I am having a very difficult time adjusting the elastic on the FB's to the correct size that isn't squeezing my baby or too loose.  I'm still working at it, but it's a little bit annoying - especially because the BG's are so easy to adjust and fit my little guy so well.

     Kelly's closet is offering a free FBOS with a $35 purchase (MLKDAY) and they have free shipping over $49.  You could buy $49 worth of BG's, get a FB for free and try them both.

     You can always sell gently used dipes for close to what you paid for them anyway. Good luck mama ;)

    Tha'ts odd because DS is 26lbs at 8 1/2 months and they fit him like a glove.

    ETA- I like theFB OS over the BGs.  His thighs are too big for the BGs.
