Cloth Diapering

Do you prefer solid or print PUL diapers/covers?

I'm looking to purchase some PUL covers for our new baby and was wondering what everyone prefers.  Specifically Blueberries mini coveralls and Bummis Super Brites.  We've only had diapers with a solid color PUL.  Are there issues with leaking with some print PUL? Also, do you all have issues with prints showing through light colored clothes?  

Re: Do you prefer solid or print PUL diapers/covers?

  •  I like both prints and solids. I don't know why a print would make a PUL fabric leak. I've never had that issue. However, I have had print show through Lightly colored clothing. It's never really a big deal. Since I know which diapers do it, I just avoid those with whatever clothing I know it will show through.

  • I've never had issues with print covers leaking. I prefer solid colours just because of my own personal taste.

    As for showing through clothing, I guess any diaper will show through a tight white onesie, but I don't think I've ever had him in public in just a white onesie. And if I did, it wouldn't really concern me, it shows off the fluffy butt =)

  • Even solid colors will show through sometimes, but I have never worried much about it.  Have a couple ought colored diapers on hand in case you need them and that should be fine.  I am just about to list some yellow Bummis super brights on a b/s/t board, lmk if you would be interested in them (new, never used).

  • I would love to have some cute prints, but because we'll be using flips, we're pretty much limited to solids unless I can find a quality hybrid OS diaper with print.

  • Print PUL vs solid PUL wont increase or decrease the leaks.

    I did have serious issues with the Bummis super brites/whisper pant

    The issues with covers are the ones that have a fabric over PUL. A lot of the time they'll wick the moisture onto the outside

    ETA: As for showing through clothes the only issue I would see is a white onesie...

    though in the summer I did intentionally put DD in skirts that would show off her fluffybutt

    I believe swaddlebee's just came out with a new system very similar flips!  They have some cute prints I believe they are called Capri Covers.
