DD is quickly outgrowing KL0s now. What did you use after those? I need something super absorbent as she's a heavy wetter. I use fitteds and pockets for overnight. BGs leak for us.

i hope someone answera as i love our KL0, and don't know what's next. ?it's the only CD that DH likes. ?i also use prefolds, w/ no problem. ?haven't used our BG or KCK's yet.
KL makes two sizes of fitteds larger than the 0's. I've never tried them so I can't recommend either way though. We like Sun Seedlings and Goodmama's, for fitteds.
They get mixed reviews on here, but we feel that Cricketts diapers with a Thirsties cover (and in the past couple of weeks, also a doubler) is a reliable nighttime fitted choice.
During the day, we don't use Cricketts a ton because they are very bulky. We have one Mother Ease that we like pretty well, and a couple Thirsties Fab Fitteds which are very trim and fit our DD's shape quite well.
here's what we've tried in the next size (we're in size S of most of these), and how i would rate them on a scale of 1-5:
All-in-ones:
MotherEase- we use these at night with either a KL or Thirsties doubler laid in. I'd give them a 4.5, only cuz they are bulky
Thirsties AIO/Pocket - trim. we find we have to stuff with a cheap gerber prefold to get them to fit right and absorb anything. 3.5
Fitteds:
MotherEase Sandy's fitted Bamboo - these are my favorite by far. Catch EBF poo and absorb a decent amount. The size S is still fitting my 16 lber with room to spare. 5
Thirsties Fab fitted - very trim and easy to use. 4.5 cuz i think they could absorb more
KL1 - very bulky on us, and a low rise. Not very absorbent. DS pees through these in like 45 minutes. 3
MotherEase One-size cotton- very bulky on the small baby, when you fold down the front, you can't use the snap-in doubler yet. 4
Bububebe one-size OBV - very soft, absorbent, cute, pricey, but absorb a lot even with only 1-2 of the 3 soakers snapped in. A bit bulky in front when snapped down to fit small sizes. 4.5 (only at this size. i think they will be a 5+++ when i don't have to snap down in front and can use all 3 soakers.)
hope this helps!
