One Size Diaper Project–6 to 6 1/2 Months–16 pounds 14 ounces

The One Size Diaper Project is where I take biweekly photos of my little guy in one size diapers. Hopefully this can help you see (and read about) how a baby grows into different one size diapers.
When I started the One Size Diaper project, I knew this day was coming…the day of CRAWLING. I knew diaper changes would be tough…and boy are they! But I figure that would make my reviews of this stuff all the more helpful, since I will know how diapers work on wiggly babies! Pretty soon the pictures for this project will just be blurred images of a fleeing baby!
So anyway, here is the little guy in diapers. He is now 16 pounds, 14 ounces. At the doctor’s office he was ranked “Average” size  on those lovely charts (remember when my little guy was plummeting in weight? I am SO happy to see him Average now!).
This is my current obsession. This is the Sprout Change diaper and I love it. I think the inserts are awesome and I like the fit across the tummy. This was a surprise to me, since I am not a huge fan of the side snapping diapers, but with how the snaps are on these, I love them.  I do wish they were easier to change sizing on so that I can have both kids wearing them (they are kind of like Fuzzibunz with the whole button elastic thing).

Best Bottom Diapers – still obsessed with these. I love that the Softbums inserts snap into them as well. This is my favorite diaper for the diaper bag because (1) I can put in a one size Softbums insert so it can fit both kids, (2) I can wipe the inside down much better (I normally don’t take AI2s in public because the covers aren’t as wipeable and therefore hold stink), (3) it is easy to adjust the size between kids, and (4) it takes up less space.

Softbums Omni – still, another obsession (I’m telling you guys, AI2s are the way to go when you have two kids because it takes up less space in the laundry…meaning you do less laundry!)

Dinkledooz One Size Pocket (he is in all pockets at night. Snaps for when I put him down, velcro diapers for the middle of the night because Zombie Mom will inevitably snap a chunky thigh..it hasn’t happened yet, but I don’t want to take any chances, I know my limits).

Sunbaby One Size Pocket

Bumgenius Elemental

Itti Bitti Tutto One Size Snap in One (I find this diaper to be kinda bulky, especially in the bum)

Wahmies One Size Pocket (this has worked well on the little guy, but unfortunately I can’t get it to fit on my older one)

Bottom Bumpers Side Snapping AIO – this is looking a little less bulky than before, don’t you think? I am enjoying it on my toddler who is potty training.


Bumgenius 4.0

Go Green One Size Pocket Diaper – this one is doing great on fit. I just find that the double gussets are GREAT for trapping poop, but tough to clean.

Tiny Tush One Size

AMP

Daughter insisted that “BABY” make a special appearance. Here she is working an XS Bumgenius AIO


Green Child Creations – this one I have had for a few months, but have never been able to get the pins through it! I finally had success with a soap bar, but it is still tough to get a good fit around the legs.



Wild Mountain Mommies One Size Pocket Diaper. Still having trouble getting the Zorb prepped (it’s been over 10 washes and still not absorbent enough! Bummer!)

Gro Via AIO. This is working pretty solidly, but again, I prefer this side snapping on my potty training little one.

Little Boppers AI2 Review

For information on how I attempt to ensure to produce reviews as honest and fair to diaper creators  as possible, please click here.

One of the downsides of a lot of AI2 diapers out there is the limitations on prints  covers. Not so much with Little Boppers! They have lots of prints to chose from because of the inner PUL feature of this diaper. More on that later, let’s get into the review of this diaper. This is my own person review of the Little Boppers AI2. I will be telling you a little bit about the features of this diaper and will show you how I would fill out a Padded Tush Stats survey for how this diaper performed on my little ones.

Video Review

Let’s first look at the basics of this diaper:

The outside of the diaper has some form of smooth printed fabric (printed interlock, ribknit, jersey, or solid velours, as well as a handful of printed velours.). Mine was made of velour on the outside and it was AMAZING. Loved it. My others have interlock on the outside. I definitely prefer the softness of the velour.

There is an inner lining of waterproof PUL to make it to where you don’t need a cover over this diaper.

There is a large collection of choices in stock (over 400) and they can be seen here.

The inside of the diaper (the part touching the baby) is lined with microfleese. I absolutely loved how soft it was against little kids’ skin. 

The soaker is a snap in insert that has nine layers. You can change this soaker in and out to get multiple uses out of the diaper. The top layer (the one touching the bum) is made of velour. The other layers are made of bamboo fleece. 

The diaper has snap two snap closures (not pictured) on each side to make for a snug fit (and the smallest size has a snap so that you can avoid the umbilical cord).

What are the PROS of this diaper?	I like the many options for prints on the diaper. I also like how comfortable this diaper seemed on my babies. I think the Medium Long sizing is a fantastic way to get a good fit on a large weight range of babies.
What are the CONS of this diaper?	I found that the interior of the diaper (not where the soaker is) got pee on it too much to warrant me getting a lot of AI2 uses out of it. If I were to spend my money on a Little Boppers diaper, I would probably buy their amazing fitteds instead (which I like so much I recommend on my FAVORITES page). But if someone is looking for a wider variety of prints, this diaper would be a great choice.
Are there any other comments or tips you would like to add about this diaper? (for example, a particular stuffing method you found helpful, or anything else!)	I found that this diaper lasted a long time on both of my kids (size-wise). The inserts take a while longer to dry where the snaps are, so I either lay them on the dresser overnight or throw them in the next load I am drying.

 

Have you tried out this diaper?

If so, then please fill out the survey for this over here. Aside from personal reviews that I do (such as this one), I also do reviews based on survey responses from people who have used the diapers on their babies. Therefore, by filling out surveys you help contribute to more comprehensive reviews that are sorted by baby characteristics (so thanks in advance!).
