Econappies vs. Blueberries

emsumm · June 2011

Can someone help me out?

I am new to cd'ing and I'm trying out different kinds. I have two econappies and I am trying to figure out the difference between them and the blueberry, aside from price. They are both one-size pockets, right? Hoping someone help enlighten me! TIA

econappi's have a velour inner and come standard with a bamboo insert whereas blueberry diapers have a microfleece inner and come with a microfiber insert but you have the option to upgrade to a bamboo insert.

Ok, thank you! Damn, I wish I knew enough to be able to weigh the pro's and con's there

I personally like the econappi better because I prefer natural fiber diapers. I also like bamboo inserts way more than microfiber as they hold more and are trimmer. Some babies don't like wet against their skin at all which is where the blueberries would be nice because it wicks moisture away from baby. My son has sensitive skin but if I stay on top of changing him I don't have problems in the econappi's and if I'm going to be running errands I lay a fleece liner in which has the same effect. I do have blueberries too though and like them again I just try and stay with natural fibers when I can

I also just upgraded the blueberries when I bought them and have bamboo inserts with them also.

Thank you so much! That is exactly what I was looking for, what a helpful response

One of my girls is very prone to yeast, so maybe a couple blueberries would be good to try out, and I think I will upgrade to bamboo. It doesn't hurt that I totally want the owl print!

First things first, Emsumm, your babies are ADORABLE in your pics! Love love love the peas and carrots!

Ok back to the diapers, I have some of both, not that I have a baby to try them on yet, but I really like the way both are made. I got my Econappies on Babysteals a week ago or so and they are really nice. I definitely recommend the bamboo inserts as they just seem trimmer and nicer. But I hope to love both my Econappies and Blueberries come August. I also love the Swaddlebees Simplex which is a fitted AIO with pocket so you cna adjust the absorbancy as needed. I personally love Swaddlebees and Blueberries so hopefully they work OTB!

Aw, thanks BabyQ. Good to know about the dipes! Good luck with your bebe

So far I've liked everything I've had on them...they aren't very heavy wetters, and so far everything has fit.

I have both. My Swaddlebees is older, but still fits about the same as the Blueberries.

I like the Blueberries with the bamboo inserts. I prefer microfleece against the skin, but the bamboo is so nice and trim and absorbant.
