What's your favorite BG diaper???

steph20830

I am looking at Bum Genius diapers for DD, specifically the Flips, the 4.0's, and the new All In Ones with the 2 liner flaps attached. Those who have experience, what is your favorite & why? Do you have a mix...if so why, are certain ones better for certain times? Thanks for the advice!

I've only used the 4.0s, we have 2. I like them a lot. They work great overnight (12+ hours) with just the 2 MF inserts they come with.

We have a mix! My favorite by far is the Freetime--no stuffing pockets and you can customize the absorbency by folding one of the flaps to the front or back. I'm not a huge fan of pockets but we do have some 4.0s in our stash as they can be boosted quite heavily for long naps or a long car ride. We keep our Flips at the grandparents' houses so we have them on hand to use while we are there but they also make great travel diapers since you can just take an extra shell and a bunch of inserts to have a lot of diaper changes with you while you are out. Flips aren't the best for younger babies though because the shell will need changing out more since poop doesn't always stay on the inserts.

I like the 4.0s the best, freetimes second because they take so long to dry and I don't like flips at all.

Elementals, with 4.0 a close second.  Freetimes come in third on that list.  I've never tried Flips.

I only have 3.0s (the previous version before 4.0s) and LOVE them. The aplix wears quickly though...

Freetime first.  Then a tie between 4.0 and flips.  Never tried the elemental.

Elemental then Freetime.

My stash currently consists of 4.0's and Flips. I prefer the 4.0's over the Flips. I've never tried Elementals or Freetimes.

We have a mix.

If you're just starting out never ever just get all of one kind. Your baby's shape and peeing habits will dictate what you buy, not what you think will work.    Also, be aware that some babies are irritated by microsuede (inner to 4.0s and the freetime).

I love the sized BG's -- is that the 3.0's? I wish I had more!

Pockets (the 4.0)

Freetimes. I hate stuffing pockets (and DH hates un-stuffing them) and I wasn't thrilled with the Elementals leg fit.

Before filling out my stash I experimented w/ freetimes and 4.0s. Ultimately I choose 4.0s. They seemed trimmer, easier to clean and dry, less cumbersome b/c no flaps, and definitely cheaper (e.g. 7 for 5 sale). But the free times are not a bad diaper at all, don't get me wrong. It's a fine choice, just depends on your needs.

Someone gave me a flip and it does nothing for me.

I have Flips and 4.0s. If I had to choose one, I'd go 4.0. I like the stay dry layer and that I can stuff extra inserts in if I need to.we have had no leaks. My issue with Flips is mostly due tomy girls' age, as they still poo runny poo a few times per day, so I feel like I have to change the Flip cover most of the time, which sort of defeats the purpose. I look forward to liking them more later.

The Elemental AIO!!

It's a really great diaper.  I am sometimes able to use it ON with no leaks for up to 8 hours!  Plus the cotton is soft and the fit is trim.  Love them.
