anyone use over disposable diapers?

Are you just trying to make the disposable diapers "cute"??? Because that seems like a wast of money to me. You can get outfits that come with covers. I'm not sure why you would want to use it over a disposable. It works great with prefolds and cloth inserts though! I have two and they've been GREAT!

I haven't, but if your goal is to contain a poo blowout, it should do the trick. The gussets do a great job containing the mess. I'm not sure it will prevent leaks if you have a heavy wetter, though. As soon as moisture touches the white trim or the tag in the back it wicks onto clothing.

Mandy, We buy all types of wipes although all disposable some are thick and some are thin and I've never noticed one type working less or better then another. This product was really money well spent. Good for you using cloth wipes. I hope with my next child I can try cloth diapers and wipes. Good luck!

You can go to the duo website for more info... But you need a cover and then one of these. Depending on how much your little one pees you may need to double up with a trifold-I did. By about 17 lbs we had outgrown this size and ended up switching to 7th generation disposable diapers.

I have only put one diaper in each bag. I only use them when we are away from home. I have the A&H; diaper pail at home.

I use my daughter's old preemie pocket diapers. We just stuff them with a washcloth. I also found a babydoll simple diaper pattern, made them out of felt from hobby lobby doubled with a patterned felt on the outside and a matching plain color on the inside with half a wash clothe in the middle and made a matching bib. Hot glued on Velcro. All hand sewn with embroidery floss. Took a couple hours. Prefolded cloth diapers cut in half work well if you don't mind the pins

They are very similar to a human baby disposable diaper. I think they work great. I did not notice a crinkly sound. You could alwaysreturn them if you or your dog are not happy with them.(:

These are liners, you use regular cloth diapers as the padding to 'do the dirty work,' so these liners are completely reusable without washing them unless they leak. My sister has two, and she says that's plenty. For the absorbent padding, I use the pre-folded 100% cotton cloth diapers, I think they are Osocozy brand. I bought them here. You keep them folded and lay them inside these liners in the area where a disposable has its padding. You'll need a ton of those. One per change until you can get them washed; I picked up two six packs of those to go with these, and my sis says she bought more. But two liners do it for her.

I wash mine after each use for sanitary reasons. They have held up VERY well in both the washer and dryer. I also recommend using Nellie's laundry soda and no fabric softeners. The inserts can go either on top of the diaper or in the pocket or both.

The inserts are sewn into them already. No additional inserts are needed, that's the Freetime. There are enough layers you won't need more. I've been using them for about 8 months and have only seen leakage if the inserts are sticking out (around the legs, like a wick). Just be sure to it tuck them in. The diapers are a little big for a newborn, so disposibles are best for a month or two. Love these diapers otherwise. They do take about 24 hours to dry, so if you have about 20 you'll be set.

You may try Pampers UnderJams (ASIN: B0015MVI3U); http://www.amazon.com/Pampers-UnderJams-Girls-Diapers-Count/dp/B0015MVI3U/ref=aag_m_pw_dp?ie=UTF8&m=A2QKAIQS4IEORS

Can we use fuzzybunz along with (over) disposable diapers for double protection ?especially when we go out etc . I have heard moms complaining about the leakage when using disposable diapers .

you can use other liners with Alva diapers such of Bummis Bio-Soft Liner, Large. I have used them for over a year, along with other brands. disposable liners make cleaning up mess diapers easier.

I also use green mountain diaper and imagine brands and the osocozy are just as absorbent, but they don't fit as well on my chunky baby. They did take several washes before they reached full absorbency but that should be expected.

It depends on how often you plan to do laundry on how many shells you need. We typically get 2-3 uses out of a shell before it needs washed because our little one poops. We started using the microfiber inserts but we ended up switching to organic because they absorb so much better and you don't have to strip the organic ones. It is worth the price difference for us. If these are the only diapers you are using I would purchase 5-7 shells and around 18 inserts.

Probably not, I think they might be too small. I don't use them for diapers though. I use them for a burp cloth. <3

I've read several opinions on this... I haven't tried them yet because my son is still too little to fit these diapers... some people say they put liners in the pocket & put liners on the inside of the cover to get several uses... hope that helps a little...

any kind of insert/cloth diaper will work with this cover. Thirsties has their own inserts you can buy, but I just bought a couple packs of unbleached cloth diapers (the original cloth diapers our mothers used) that I use with these covers. Once the cloth diaper is wet, you can change out for a new one, but use the same cover and just wipe out until it is dirty (from, say, a poo explosion). These covers are just an upgraded version of old plastic covers that were the only thing available 30 yrs ago to go over the cloth. I hope that clears it up!
