i know every baby is different and there is no one way to know ahead of time which dipes work best for lo buuuutttt....... im looking between kissaluvs and gmd workhorse fitteds. id love to hear any feedback on either of these! thanks
Don't know about the Kissaluvs, but I used the GMD Workhorse fitteds until my DD grew out of the size I had (red medium). I loved them, but decided not to get the next size up because at that point I decided I was only going to continue building my stash with OS diapers.
GMD fitteds are great! Love the natural cotton. So easy to clean, no stink issues, no repelling issues. They fit her great. Held all the BF poo. No blowouts. Snaps were easy to use and did not fall off. Great quality diaper and great price.
The only negative I had with them is they were not absorbant enough for her naptime pee.
I also don't know about the Kissaluvs, though I've heard good things. I love GMD workhorses though! We use ours all the time. No leaks and they are plenty absorbant.
I also loved GMD Workhorse. They were DH's favorites until we went to one-size pockets exclusively. Actually, I liked them so much after using the orange edge that I got the yellow edge and then the red edge.

We have the kissas (the gmd were still in beta when I had my first). They're pricier, but more absorbant and will last longer size-wise. We wore them until 5.5 mos, so really got our money's worth. I took them out for imminent baby #2 and they're still in near-new condition.
For price alone, I think GMD is a good choice if you're just trying to get through the first weeks and then switch to pockets or AIO. But, if you're doing fitteds (which we were) I'd go kissas.
We did a kissaluvs rental for the NB stage and loved them - it was the only kind we had till he grew out of them. I got some workhorses after that and I really love them too - in fact, I saw on another post here that they are having a sale (20% off a 6-pack) and I went and bought the next size up!
Sorry I'm not much help I think both are great, and they also both have good resale value so if you decide you don't like them, you could easily resell them.
