Goodmama

I came across a NIP Goodmama on Spots Corner for a reasonable price so I scooped it up.  And I have to say: I like it!  It's not fully prepped yet but its super soft and fits well.  Nice daytime fitted.  And I found it interesting that it's one-size but doesn't have any rise snaps.  So thats cool.  Do people here use these?  I never see them mentioned.  Also I noticed that prices really vary even on her website.  Is this really only b/c of the outer fabric?  Seems like other diaper makers charge the same regardless of the fabric. Is there some "designer fabric" correlation that I'm missing?

    The price variation is because she's running an over complicated process where people can find fabric, gather a group, and have gms made from that fabric. So there's the base price of $35 plus the cost of the fabric from the group.

    I use them mostly for a daytime fitted diapers, with an added doubler. I love the fit.

    This, only we don't need a doubler.

    Plus, there is a foldover rise on GM to make them a OS diaper.  Fold the front down and use the inside snaps for smaller babies.  We did this until our LO was about 12 months and 20 lbs.

    I've picked up a few at consignment/yard sales, and I love them. They fit well and are super soft & squishy inside. Maybe it's trendy, but I like the quality of them better than most of the others I've seen. I have no experience with the Goodmama herself.

    Ditto Pixy.  I use them for daytime and love the fit on DD.  I have to use a doubler though.

    Ah!  That explains it.  Okay, I figured there was some fabric calculation involved but I couldn't figure it out. 

    The fit is awesome, right?  Before I started cding this was one diaper I told myself I'd never buy b/c of the hype and expense.  But now that I've used one... :)  I might see if I can scoop up some more.  They are crazy soft.  And the fold-down rise stays in place really well (I have some other diapers with a fold down rise but they are too bulky for it to work well).

    Where the heck do you live that you come across diapers at a yard sale? :)  I want to move there!

    Sorry, it was a cloth diaper yard sale. But maybe if you lived somewhere like Portlandia it could happen!

    I love the fit, but the CS sucks so bad I refuse to buy GMs ever again.

    This is a fairly passe assessment since the GM craze has been dead for months. These are decent fitteds but aren't as absorbent as I'd like so I reach for my other fitteds first.

    I'm also sick of all of the CS shenanigans so won't buy anymore either.

    I won't buy any new for this reason, but I buy them used all the time.  They come up fairly often on my local CL, and at yard sales :)
