Help! Fuzzibunz & Charlie Bananas issues

I have been having issues with the absorbency of my fuzzibunz and charlie bananas and I am really hating them at this point. I have 6 of each in my stash and they are both leaking out the legs even when they are stuffed with 2 inserts and I religiously change her every 2 hours. They are not the only diapers in my stash but they are quickly becoming my last resort diaper and I don't want to deal with selling them just yet.  

My question is what is the best insert to stuff with?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

  • Are the inserts completely soaked? If they are leaking out the legs it could be a fit issue.

  • I have issues with fuzzibunz if I'm not careful. The crotch is just so narrow. I have had luck stuffing them with an infant prefold, because that gets some extra absorbency and thickness where it needs to be. I've also tried stuffing with a hemp insert and one of the minky ones or a microfiber. Layering the inserts seems to help. I have some brand new charlie bananas that are working great so far so I can't help with that. Good luck!

  • I've had leaks with FB too. Those minky inserts are weird. I just moved up to the OS insert for M and that seems to have solved the issue for now.

  • Thanks everyone! I adjusted the elastic on the legs and stuff with the larger insert and a small one from one of our NB diapers and that seems to be working now.
