The diaper has a couple of snaps to adjust width, and a snap in front to pull the diaper under the umbilical cord stump if your baby still has one. Mine does not. It also has a hemp insert that snaps in and folds down in the front to soak up extra moisture.
I started out by prepping it. I put it through the wash with our three loads of clothes, then our load of towels, and finally with our diapers. I put it through the dryer with my other inserts. I will admit that my method may have been lazy, but at least it conserved energy and water! Some people dry after every wash when they prep, but I didn't want this diaper to shrink too much, so I only dried it once.
I purchased the newborn size for my 12 lb, two month old and it fits great with a Softbums Mini Pod inside to help keep the moisture off of his skin.
I read that a lot of people use this under their Thirsties covers. But I found this to be a snug fit under my Thirsties size 1. I prefer to use it with my Best Bottom or Flip Cover.
CB in his Flip. Plenty of room for that bulky hemp fitted! |
