Bum Covered Diapers Review and Giveaway

As we covered before, what could be more newborn essential than cloth diapers?  Well, Bum Covered Diapers graciously sent me a newborn fitted diaper to review for the Virtual Baby Shower.


I was so excited about this diaper because I got to build it myself!  On Bum Covered Diapers' website they have an option to build your own fitted diaper.  You get to pick the print on the outside, what you would like as the soaker pad, and the fabric that would be touching your child's skin.  I chose to have microfiber as the soaker and to have the lining be microfleece.  This is what the outside of my diaper looked like when I got it:

I LOVE the microfleece that they use as the lining!  This stuff is so super soft!  Well, so is the flannel that they use.  I couldn't wait to use this diaper because it is just so cute and SO soft!!!!!  This diaper is a bit more on the bulky side on a newborn, but that goes without saying that almost every cloth diaper you put on a newborn would be pretty bulky.  However, I was able to use this diaper during the day without a cover, which cuts down on the amount of fabric on the baby and increases the breathability of the diaper.  I also used this diaper overnight with a cover and it lasted for the 4 hours that my son can sleep at a time.  I was very happy with this diaper and I really recommend these fitted diapers!  Especially seeing that you get to customize it exactly how you would like it!!!
