SposoEasy Diaper

I’ve mentioned before that we use some cloth diapers and some disposables. If money grew on trees I would use nothing but the SposoEasy and skip the disposables all together. Made by Blue Penguin the Sposos are all-in-one diapers that you put on just like a disposable, no extra steps, no trying to get a squirming baby to be patient while you go through the steps of using separate pieces. Little Moxie is not known for her patience and these speed up the changing process over other cloth diapers immensely. They also keep her little behind from getting a rash because they breath so much more than disposables.

These diapers are trim but absorbent. You know how many cloth diapers are pretty much huge? Well not these, they really aren't that much bigger than a disposable when they fit properly. If used a bit big then they are a little more bulky but they still blow the competition away. I think we’ve only had a leak like three times, and of course each time it could possibly (definitely) have been because I waited too long. No cloth diaper can absorb as much as a disposable and sometimes I just dropped the ball on changing often enough. If you want more absorbency you could use a doubler but I never do because I like the trimness.

We have found that we like the apix closure the best because they are slightly more adjustable than the snaps. The snaps were nice when Little Moxie went through the taking-her-diaper-off-every-chance-she-got stage because she couldn’t quite figure those out. Ooooh was she mad. I also don’t notice the red rubbing with the Sposos that she would get from some of her other covers. I hated to see little red rub patches, that can’t be comfortable. Lastly these are so easy to wash, in the right detergent of course. They have a little area where you tuck in the apix so that it doesn’t stick to everything else and then just throw them in the machine. In all honesty I try no to use cloth if I think she’s going to poo; I’m not a big fan of the toilet swishing. When she was 100% breast fed it was fine because it was okay to just throw it in the washer but with “real” poo you have to pre-wash… yuck. Props to all of you who can do it, but I try not to if at all possible.

We didn't get any size xs (I wish we did though) and the small didn't fit Little Moxie until about 6 or 8 weeks but following the size recommendations has worked for us very well. Oh I should also mention that these come in fab colors, which I suppose you can see by the pic, but still. White is a staple of course but the colors are nice for summer when really all they need to wear is a diaper around the house. Colors are also good with just a t-shirt or dress because they don’t “look” like a diaper so you can get away with wearing them out without looking like you forgot to get your kid dressed.
