Cloth Diapering

Your opinions on FB OS pocket

Ladies that have used or are currently using Fuzzibunz OS pocket, what are your opinions on it?  The one with the adjustable elastic in the legs and waist.

I've had a couple that we just started using (brand new) and have used them only once each, and I'm just not quite sure what I think about them on my 16.5 pound 4 month old.

Thanks for your sharing your opinions!

Re: Your opinions on FB OS pocket

  • i don't like them at all.  the perfect size were okay, but I hated the adjustable elastic.

  • FB didn't work for us- OS or PS.  Always leaked for us.  I tried stuffing them with every different thing under the sun.  I ended up selling them off b/c I couldn't get a good fit with no leaks.

    DD1 born 5/24/10.

    DD2 born 5/14/13.

  • I have ONE and I have had a few leaks with it. One of the times was user error though.

  • I've been liking the FB perfect size for during the day and was considering getting just a couple in the next size up, but we've also been using them at night stuffed with one MF and two hemp with a wool soaker over it and we still get leaks (he's a heavy wetter) and the wool and pj's are saturated. Anyone have suggestions on other pockets they love? I have a few BG 3.0's. Are the 4.0's worth a try?

  • They've worked fine for me. Probably 1/3 of my pocket stash is FB OS and I've never had an issue. I think I've had one leak maybe once or twice over the last several months.
  • I have a few and like them, but I don't love them.  They're pretty trim for a OS, which I like.  But the snaps are confusing to DH (who has no issues with CDs in general), which makes me reluctant to send them to child care.  I also don't think they would do well at nighttime, so my use for them is actually pretty limited.  I use the three I have, but I won't order any more.

    I prefer my BG 3.0s and 4.0s for both overnight and for child care.

  • We love them. They fit my toddler beautifully and I've had no issues with leaking. I prefer the elastic adjustments to rise snaps because I get irritated when the snaps come undone while I'm trying to get the diaper on a wiggly 13 month old. My DH is an anomaly who prefers snaps to velcro.

  • I like them well enough.  They're not my favorite, but I don't really have any complaints about them.  For FB I prefer the perfect size a bit more, but when it comes down to it I reach for both OS and perfect size pretty much equally.  The OS fit DD fine - we haven't had any leaks in them.  Figuring out the elastics was kind of annoying at first.  DH isn't as good with snaps, but I think it's because he hasn't had enough practice with them.
  • I ended up not linking the 2 I had. I could never get a fit that felt right......I prefer the perfect size.
  • I liked them until my DD was about 10 months and started peeing too much for the inserts to handle.  I also don't think they offer enough coverage on larger babies/toddlers, but both of my kids are tall.
  • I really like our FB OS. My daughter is chunky and long....16.5lbs and 26inches long. They fit great even with her chunky thighs and no leaks (fingers crossed)

    The BG 4.0s ARE worth a try. We love them!

  • Dislike everything about them besides the color choices and softness. They are bulky, leak every time, and the elastic ends don't stay in the slots.

  • I like the material and the trimness, but I hate the fit -- to get it tight enough you have to pull the elastic so it bunches up into a hard knot of PUL at her back -- oh, and they ALWAYS leak. thumbs down. In fact, I'm selling them soon.
