Cloth Diapering

BG Elementals?

I was wondering how these fit on your babies... What weight/age did you get a good fit with them? I want to order some for my LO, but have to buy at least 6 to get the sale price on them. 

All in all - thoughts, comments, etc are more than welcome! Tell me what you really think about these diapers.

Thanks :)

  • Hands down these are my favorite diapers. They are SUPER trim and great for traveling and diaper bag diapers.

     LOVE them!

    I think we started using them around 2 months. My only warning is that they do stain.... a lot..

  • Fantastic - i will definitely be ordering some. I think I am okay with some staining, I really want natural materials on baby's bottom. I plan to hang them to dry outside so hopefully that might be able to keep the staining to a minimum...?

    I live in Canada, but a canadian dealer has them on for I think 8 dollars off...

  • I love my BGEs too. I want to get more because they are our go-to diaper when we are out of the house. They are absorbent - never had a leak - and super trim under clothing. They stain on occasion because of the natural fibers, but I live in a city that gets a lot of sun so all my BGE are stain free.

    I think we got our first one when DD was 8 weeks old and they have always fit great for us.

  • I like ours, the only thing I wasn't such a fan of was when DS was younger the inside part would seem to not lie flat and to me seemed uncomfortable.  If I messed with it, I could fix that but it was slightly annoying.  They also roll in the very front unless you put them on just right.  All in all I like that they are trim, absorbent and all natural fibers.  They don't have an extra pocket to add absorbency so we don't use them at night.

  • I like the ones we have, they stain like no other, but I'm not trying to sell them so I don't really care. They do take forever to hang dry indoors though, darn northern climate!

  • I got rid of our BG 3.0s and bought all Elementals when DS was about 12 months old. They fit perfectly then, and they still fit perfectly now (he's still on the medium rise setting). I've never used them for an itty-bitty baby, but I adore these diapers. As mentioned, they do stain like crazy, but I've always been able to get them out by sunning - and if really bad, I squeeze a little lemon juice on them before sunning. However, I rarely sun them because I just don't care too much about the stains.
  • I love them!  They're what I like to use when out of the house.  They're the trimmest in my stash and fit great under all of her clothes.  Haven't had any leaks in them either.  I plan to pick up some more.

    ETA: forgot - they fit DD pretty well from about 10/11 lbs or so.

  • they have fit my daughter since the beginning, at about 8 lbs. i love them and always use them when we're on the go [i am currently building up my stash enough to use them full-time]. the one drawback is, like pp said, they stain. i plan to line dry them when it gets warmer, though, so i'm not sure how easy or difficult it is to get the stains out.

  • I guess I'm in the minority and I hate ours. Dd pees out of them. I'm selling them, if any of you are interested.

    Are they all girly colors? How much are you asking?
