Sustainablebabyish Organic Overnight Bamboo Fleece Fitted

Sustainablebabyish Organic Overnight Bamboo Fleece Fitted Cloth Diaper ($24.95ARV) is a fitted diaper made with organic bamboo and cotton fleece inner and an outer layer of soft jersey. Since this is a fitted diaper, you do need a cover for over it. We've used this with a fleece soaker, wool soaker and even a Flip cover. All have worked great.

 This fitted diaper comes with a snap in soaker as well as a shorter lay in soaker. They are made with three layers of bamboo fleece and also topped with soft jersey.

Cade is 3 years old and weighs 40 pounds, but is fairly slim and tall. It is very hard to find diapers that fit him and do not dig into his hips and cause him pain. Sbish has an X-Large size which fits from 32 pounds and up! I was so excited to see this larger diaper available and even more so when I tried the diaper on him and seen how much more room he has to grow into! This is very rare when looking for a diaper for Cade. As you can imagine, with Cade being 3 years old he is a heavy wetter and while we do have other diapers that fit him, he really can't be in the same diaper no matter what diapering system it is for more then about an hour usually! I don't have enough diapers large enough for him to be changing him 16+ times per day and then still manage to have diapers clean and available to use for him over night. As for this diaper!! He can wear it all night long, about 12 hours give or take! Yes, 12 hours in this one diaper, all through the night and wakes up with his pajamas and bedding dry! Oh, it was like a miracle the first few times he wore this diaper. I refuse to use this diaper during the day because it is so awesome as a night time diaper for Cade. It is most definitely our night time solution diaper! He has even woken up after a full 12 hours of sleep and the diaper not even be fully soaked and from a guesstimate I'd say he could go about 14 hours in this diaper, while I would not allow him to unless he were sleeping! Both of the boys have very sensitive skin so during the day the longest we let them go is about two hours in one diaper. 

I love how absorbent this diaper is, yet it doesn't take forever to dry. When washing the diaper, obviously you take the lay in soaker out, but you also unsnap the snap in soaker. Why should you un snap it before washing? If you leave it snapped together you will put too much stress on the snaps, causing them to rip or pull out of the fabric leaving you with a ruined diaper. It also helps the soakers and the diaper get cleaner, the more open the diaper is, the better water and detergent can flow through the fibers of the diaper and get a nice and deep clean. As for drying, I dry all of my diapers on low heat. When using 4-6 wool dryer balls this diaper is dry in just one low heat, automatic sensor drying cycle. If I do not use the wool dryer balls then I do have to run it through the dryer one more time, but for me that is not an issue. I don't complain about diapers taking forever to dry because I look at it this way, if the diaper is absorbent and can hold more then other diapers or other layers of diaper of course it will take a while longer to dry as it has more absorbency.
