AlvaBaby 4.0 Color Snap Diapers

I ordered a bunch directly from Alva online and still haven't gotten them.  That might be another month away, but I found a Facebook group that sells custom Alva diapers.  I never knew that buying things on FB was so easy!  Maybe that's a good thing.  You can find them under Loving AlvaBaby B/S/T and request to be added.  They have a page that's just the fan page, but they'll direct you to the other one if you ask.  They have the cutest designs not available on the Alva page in the 4.0 variety.  I ended up going overboard because of it!

I got my first two yesterday and I love them!  The fabric feels like a good quality, especially when compared to the Babyland diapers that I keep saying are horrible.  I put the first one on my son and he immediately decided to test it out and let out a huge EBF poop.  It rolled right over the double gusset on one side, but was completely contained by the leg opening.  It has enough elastic to hold that massive poop, but not enough to leave red marks on my chunky monkey's thighs.  I saved the second one for night time.  I've been having a lot of leaks lately because my boy sleeps on his tummy, so it was the perfect time to test it out.  They have a strip of PUL on the waistband to prevent wicking in the tummy area.  I stuffed the pocket with two Softbums pods (regular and infant sized) because I have a ton of them.  The pocket was big enough to hold it and not be overflowing or have anything sticking out.  He slept in that diaper for 10 hours and woke up dry!  I am very pleased.

I've never bought from the FB page, but I love my alvababy's.  We use them mainly for ON, and the inserts get full before the diaper itself fails.  DS only gets to wear them during the day for special occasions (we prefer prefolds and covers), but they're so stinkin cute I like to use them for playdates and such too.

I got so hooked on the cute colors and patterns that I ended up buying 14 of them!  Considering that altogether, I paid less than $125 for all of that and a wetbag, I made out like a bandit!  I was so glad that he woke up dry!  I think that the PUL on the waistband made all the difference.  They're definitely going to be my night time diapers.  He wears them on the smallest settings without using the crossover tabs, so he's going to have them for a very long time.

Are you saying that if you order them on Facebook that the shipping is a lot faster? Just wondering because I've had a horrible customer service experience with Just Simply Baby diapers, and I'm thinking about returning my entire order to them and buying AlvaBaby diapers, however, I've heard that the Alva diapers take forever to ship! (like you said!)
