ALVABABY 6pcs with 12 Inserts Baby Cloth Diapers Pocket Newborn Diaper for Less Than 12pounds Baby Snaps Cloth Diapers Nappy

We’ve been using these and Bumgenius xs AIO cloth diaps for our daughter since her umbilical cord fell off at about 8 days old. She was 7lbs 12.9oz at birth and was 7lbs 3oz at her last check up at 8 days old and these fit great. We do snap the front down as they’re a bit too big at the full size but we have the waist snaps as loose as they can go so I’m hoping they’ll fit for at least another month. I was hesitant to invest in a bunch of newborn diapers but ended up buying 3 packs of 6 of the Alva baby newborn diapers for 18 total, plus 24 bumgenius xs aio diapers 2nd hand, 8 bumgenius xs bamboo fitted diapers and 2 covers also 2nd hand. That has been a decent amount of newborn diapers, we go through about 20 diapers a day and can stretch laundry 2 days. I’d recommend buying at least 36 if you want to be able to do laundry every other day but you could get by with 18-24 if you plan on washing every day. These Alva baby diapers actually hold liquid better than the bumgenius but I like the hook and loop closure on the bumgenius better since it makes it so fast to do diaper changes and I don’t have to stuff those. They’re easier for my husband and my MIL to change since they’re so similar to disposables. But I had to invest on boosters for the bumgenius diapers since they’re AIO’s and it’s not as easy to customize absorbency like it is with these. We’ve had multiple leaks with the bumgenius so I’ve had to wash her bassinet sheets a bunch of times and we haven’t had any leaks with these. I double stuff a few of the Alva baby diapers for night time and we just do one insert during the day. I’m not crazy about the microfiber inserts but they work for the newborn stage; we’ll probably need to get bamboo inserts for when we move on to one size diapers since the microfiber isn’t the best. These are a great deal and I think we’ll actually save money on diapers even in the newborn stage. By the time we’d started using cloth at 8 days old we had gone through 5 small packs of Pampers newborn diapers which are super expensive, I think we honestly would have paid more on disposables if we’d used newborn and size ones instead of these and other 2nd hand cloth diapers. I’ve already bought a huge stash of bumgenius AIO one size diapers but if I didn’t have those I would have bought Alva baby one size for when she’s bigger. If you’re looking to do cloth in the newborn stage these are a good option and not very expensive! With diapers from the hospital and diaper samples sent in baby sample boxes we only had to buy a few packages to get her through the stage with her umbilical cord but you could also probably just fold the front of the diaper down!

We love these diapers! We bought 1 set of these initially to try them out, and came back to buy 2 more sets so we have 18 total. They are perfect for our newborn who is way too small for the full size BG diapers we had bought before he was born. We waited til he was 8 pounds like we were told but still there was no way the full size cloth diapers would fit him, so we started looking at new born cloth diapers. These fit him perfectly with the snaps adjusted, and we like the colors. We have not had a single blow out since he started using these. He has leaked (wet only) twice but that was because I didn't notice the inserts were sticking out of hte pocket in the back so his clothes were wicking moisture from the inserts. They clean up nice. I washed them in hot water 5 times before I started using them on him and haven't had any trouble with absorption. There's a million different suggestions for washing cloth diapers, but one thing I saw over and over was to never put the pockets in the dryer, only the inserts, so we've been doing that. The only negative I've noticed is some quality control issues in that even though I bought them all at the same time, one diaper might be a tad smaller or larger than the next so I can't snap them all quite the same around his waist, and some of the inserts are harder to fit in than others because the inserts are different lengths and because the crotch of the diaper is narrower on some than others. Other than that they all seem to be sewn well and nothing has come apart so far. And yes, like other reviews say, the crotch width is narrow so it is tight to stuff the inserts if you don't have smaller hands. It is supposed to be a smaller diaper so I don't think you can count this as a negative. I haven't had any troubles. Even with these slight negatives, I saved over $200 buying these vs a name brand so I'm very happy to put up with the small inconveniences.

These are my favorite newborn diapers. We prefer them to several more expensive brands we tried. I wish we would have just bought all Alvas to begin with! The rise and hip snaps allow us to get the best fit around my baby's skinny thighs. These are the only diapers we haven't had leaks with. We started using them when she was less than 7lbs, and at over 9lbs we still have several snaps to let out before she outgrows them. They say that one size diapers can be adjusted to fit her now, but they are way too bulky and look ridiculous. We could get away with one insert at first, but she started wetting too much around 4 weeks. I find using both microfiber inserts to be a bit bulky, so I usually use one with a Thirsties newborn cotton doubler behind it. Even when they come out soaked, we don't get leaks. Thirsties are the only other brand of newborn inserts I've found that fit. I've also cut up a FST and used a fourth of it folded up behind the microfiber and that works well too. They are a bit difficult to stuff by hand since they're so small, but that's just the nature of smaller pockets. I use kitchen tongs now and it's super easy. My only complaint is that they sent me the wrong colors on two of my orders and I didn't realize it until after I washed them. Super bummed to have no pink diapers!

I recently started using these for our 1 month old. She's a tiny little thing weighing around 7lbs and has long thin legs. These have worked pretty well overall. We've had 2 leaks over the course of a week but I don't think that's all on the diaper. Because the inserts are microfiber they wick moisture away fast but work like a sponge. Meaning any pressure applied when the insert is full will cause liquid to leak out. To alleviate this I'm going to purchase additional hemp inserts. In the meantime I'm doubling up the microfiber ones. Doing this adds a lot of bulk to the diaper causing a few issues. 1. It's hard to get the leg area snapped tight enough to prevent leg gaps. I manage but it's difficult. 2. By changing the rise to the smallest, it causes the white lining of the diaper to push up in the front passed the colored outer shell. 3. Because the diapers are so small and narrow in the crotch, it makes them really difficult to stuff. Maybe a pair of tongs would make this easier. I am new to cloth diapering and may have to work on my fitting with the snaps. On the bright side, these have been a great day time solution. I do not use them at night but I've had no issues using them during naps. I have already washed them a few times and they are holding up well. I use regular detergent and baking soda. Most of the stains come right out. I do, however, rinse any poopy ones out before they go in the wet bag and are laundered. After, being washed and dried, if they do have any stains I hang them in the window and let the sun take care of that. Overall, I have been very pleased and the price can't be beat!

We’ve been using these diapers for the last 2 months, for reference baby is 11 lbs and in newborn size. It took about a week to figure out how to properly size these but once you get that down these diapers are amazing. The shells wash really well, do stain a tad but smell fresh after each wash. I washed the inserts 5 times before using which I recommend for max absorption. We wash these in our own washer/dryer with no issues. Aside from sizing issues in the beginning we’ve had no issues with leaking or blowouts. I recommend watching tutorials on sizing before starting. Overall, these diapers are super cute, affordable, and make for an environmentally friendly diapering option. Highly recommend!

I decided to buy these because I really want to start cloth diapering in hospital or at least when I get home. I have about 12 Alva Baby (LBB...just another name they fall under) pocket diapers and I was really impressed with the quality and design. However, I read that people said their 8 pound baby's fit in them but I'm honestly not sure how comfortable a baby could be in the one size Alva baby diapers. What settled the deal for me to get some newborn sizes was I saw a 9 pound 4 day old baby at Baby's R Us the other day. And I just thought. Omg! There's no way a newborn that small could really fit in the one size and be comfortable. So anyway, I bought these. Excited to use them. I feel like they are made well. And really can't beat the price. I will update review once I actually use them, but I'm sure they'll probably be fine. I'll attach some photos so others can see the size difference between the newborn versus the one size. First photo is almost on smallest setting (could bring waist in more on both sides). Second photo is the newborn on biggest setting and one size on almost smallest setting (could bring waste in more). Third photo is smallest setting with smallest waist setting on both. The newborn one can get tiny! Anyway, hope these photos help someone out. I had a hard time finding information on the newborn versus one size because a lot of people skip doing cloth for first month of so. Update: Finally using these. They are a bigger newborn diaper but my baby is big so I don't know how long these will fit him. He is a little over 9lbs in this pic and about a week old. I'm convinced this diaper prevented a blow out the other night. He pooped and it was bad. Almost the whole back of inside diaper was covered in poo but none came out. I would still recommend these.

I'm not a typically a review-writer but I feel compelled to offer some logical counter-points to a majority of the negative reviews of this product. First background: This is the first baby I've cloth diapered (and my last child-ever). I researched which type of cloth diaper would work best for me and decided to go with pocket diapers. Following the advice of most CD moms, I bought 27 one-size pocket diapers because I was instructed not to "waste money" on newborn cloth diapers (just use disposables for a week until meconium passes). Well, while all (or most) one-size CD state that they will fit a minimum of 8 pounds (my son was born 8 lbs 15 oz), the reality is comical; even on the smallest setting, one-size diapers went up to my baby's armpits and the leg openings were HUGE. Mind you, he's not only 9 lbs but he's 21 inches long (91%)- so he's no shrimp. I was reluctant to buy newborn CD and poured over reviews of every NB CD I looked at. These are by far the most economical NB CDs that I could find on Amazon. OK, so most of the negative reviews stated that these CDs leak and that the inserts are hard to use/stuff. Leaks: First, you really shouldn't keep your NB in any diaper for longer than 2 hours or more than one BM- disposable or cloth. It's not good for baby's skin and you are tempting fate by waiting until the diaper is at capacity before changing it. If I left either of my NBs in any diaper (even the most expensive disposable) for 4 hours or more, or more than one BM, I experienced leaks and blowouts. So asking a CD to withstand 2+ hours of urine and feces is unrealistic. If your baby sleeps more than 4 hours during the night and you aren't up feeding and changing him/her at least once, then I would recommend disposables at night. Second, play around with the snaps and the fit. I found that these CD (might be true of all CD) give baby a bit of a "muffin-top" when they are adjusted to the correct size. You can't leave the diaper gapping and expect it to contain urine or feces either. I'll repeat myself here, if the fit isn't correct on disposables they too will leak (my sons have peed out the tops of disposable diapers that were too loose). Third, follow the laundering guidelines. This includes 1 wash-before-use for the covers and 3-5 pre-washes for the liners. Don't use hot water. Check your washer's owner's manual to see if the warm water temp is around 86 degrees F and if so, wash on warm. Otherwise wash on cold but use a normal or heavy duty wash setting. Don't put the covers in the dryer- high heat breaks down PUL which is what keeps the moisture inside the diaper. You can dry the liners in the dryer (I would recommend medium or low heat) but hang the covers to dry. Do 1-2 rinse and spins in cold water before washing with detergent (no fabric softener) in warm or cold water on a normal to heavy duty wash setting. Also, don't use dryer sheets with the liners. Fabric softeners have a tendency to make fabric repel moisture- which is exactly the opposite of the desired function of CDs. The truth is, CDs are less practical than disposables- there's a reason human's invented disposable diapers. However, those of us that do CD do so for a reason, whether it be to save money, limit baby's exposure to toxins, limit environmental impact or any combination of the three. So there is some sacrifice that's necessary in order to achieve those goals. Stuffing the pockets: Yes, these are NB size. That means that they are going to be smaller than one-size diapers. If you take an extra 2 minutes to stuff the liner, it's actually pretty simple. If stuffing a liner is a deal-breaker for you, then don't get pocket diapers- period. Bottom line, these are an excellent option for those of us who can't (or don't want to) pay $10-$20 per diaper for NB sized CD. I've experienced LESS leaks and blowouts in these (changed every 2-3 hours and after every BM) than I have with Bamboo Nature, 7th Generation, Huggies Snugglers, or Pampers Swaddlers diapers.

I decided to try cloth diapering for many reasons (environment, cost, baby sensitive skin etc.) and I’m so glad I did! I started with these newborn ones and I loved them! They fit my baby until 4 months old (7.5 lbs to 12 lbs). Baby never got a diaper rash! Baby is now wearing bigger cloth diapers as she outgrew these. Things to know: These absorbed best after a few washes/uses. We did have some blow outs but we were getting blow outs with any diaper (pampers & huggies). When baby starts pooping be sure to monitor and change diaper as soon as baby is done. Blow outs happened when we didn’t notice and baby was moving/sitting for a few minutes and it leaked out. Always remove the insert in the pocket for washes. Cleans better and dries quickly. I used hot water with Arm & Hammer free & clear detergent. In dryer I used wool balls and sprayed some vinegar. When inserting pocket the first few times it’s hard to get your hand in there but diaper stretches after a few uses so it’s easier to insert. If your thinking about using cloth diapers I encourage you to these.
