I have posted several times about cloth diapers & I've particularly shared about how much I love our GroBaby diapers! I have had almost no complaints with them at all. I didn't even really think about the ways they could be improved upon. They've rarely been leaky, they fit her from 7 lbs, they're cute, they are absorbent, they aren't super messy, easy to clean, etc. Just all in all, we have been incredibly happy.
Well, Cloth Diaper Whisperer posted this video today comparing GroBaby with their new & improved version after their company re-launch as GroVia & I must say they are absolute geniuses over there!! The new things they added are so amazing & in my opinion they are all things that I haven't seen any other cloth diaper offer. The main things that I think set GroVia apart from other diapers are:
- The top part of the soaker pad is made of fleece which is what is used as a stay-dry material in cloth diapers.
- They added extra PUL material to the back of the soaker so that moisture doesn't even go through to the shell anymore.
- They fit tight from 7 lbs & up - great for newborns!!
- Mesh lining of the shell helps them dry quick if they do get wet - less than 2 hours & no stink!
All in all I think they are an absolutely fabulous diaper & I highly recommend them!
Go see for yourselves!!

We use gDiapers and Twinkletoes here and love them both!
I don't CD but I do use alt diapers, like gDiapers or 7th Gen. I do feel a bit less guilty though because my daughter started potty training early. At 23 months she's probably 50 to 60% using the potty vs using her diaper.
Always exciting to see other parents getting into "greening" their baby.
I worry about...
* asking my babysitter to do them
* having WAY too much extra laundry
* caving and going to disposable after I spend all the money
Fill me in... I only have 6 weeks until Tula arrives!
@mama smores, cameron has lots more experience than me... but my friend got me a starter kit first (with 6) so that i could make sure i liked them before going "all the way". also, i started out with disposables because i was too overwhelmed with all the rest of new mommyhood to add the extra laundry in at the beginning. i can handle it now though... i think. :) as for your babysitter... maybe you can get the biodegradable, flushable disposable liners for when the babysitter is over??
*Make it really easy for your babysitter to use cloth if they say they're willing to try. A large PlanetWise wetbag is working for us. She just throws the diapers in there & zips it shut - no stink, no mess. I don't expect her to clean.
*I also agree with Adriel about maybe using something with a flushable or disposable insert like gdiapers.
*I have not found there to be too much more laundry. 1 large load every 2-3 days. I wash on hot w/ an extra rinse - 1 scoop of Tiny Bubbles detergent. Dry the soakers in the dryer & hang the shells to dry on a rack.
*I was scared I wouldn't like the cloth right before Isis was born, but I've been even happier than I expected! No complaints or desire to switch to completely disposable.
And Adriel - I don't know how Bumgenius compares to GroVia, but I've heard good things about BumGenius as well! Those are the 2 brands I hear a lot about!

I highly recommend them, although they are not the only place online that you can register for cloth diapers. But I did have a great experience with them! Fast shipping, great customer service!
and I am completely satisfied with your website.
