Strange Machines

Remarkably, Kitten can wear her brother’s L sized Loveybums diaper already. The NB/S barely fits her and M just right. L is comfy with room to grow…

I put her next to Bear this morning and noted with amazement that they have the same waist size! So I wrote back to Pam, who had kindly written back last night, that I would go for the large size instead.

As for last night’s experiment, the BumGenius diaper (it is a diaper with 2 layers of organic cotton inside covered with a cover with organic cotton on one side and a PUL – polyurethane laminate – cover – breathable – on the outside) held it in and there was only a slight leakage where the Loveybums diaper was not covered by the BumGenius.

Tonight I am trying her with the Loveybums organic fleece cover and the BumGenius and see how that goes.

She went cloth all day today – 3 all day, and also cloth (albeit with PUL) at night. Bear had to go disposable during the day since I only have one L and one XL. But we’ll try day too when the XLs come. I’d use the BumGeniuses but they take 2 days to dry. I don’t want to shorten their lifespan by putting them in the dryer.

Which is one reason why I prefer the Loveybums – I can blast them with hot water and the smell is gone, wash them and dry them and have them ready for use in 2 hours. But the BumGeniuses, as pretty and leak-proof as they are, take 2 days to be usable again.
