When we found out that we were pregnant, Hubby and I talked about a few of the Eco-friendly things that I was wanting to do. One of them being Cloth Diapering. Not saying that he was 100% on board with it at the beginning, but we came to a compromise. If we’re going out or if the Grandparents are watching her, we were going to use sposies, but all the other times cloth it is. So when Buttons agreed to partner with us on this event, both Joy of Momma Joyner and I jumped at the opportunity. Buttons Sent me one of their Covers and inserts!
A little about the Buttons Company: Buttons cloth diapers were born at home. As a husband and wife team, we designed our diapers to be easy to use and affordable for everyone – the way it should be. We believe in keeping our lives simple, even when it comes to diapering. Our company is based in the beautiful Skagit Valley of Northwest Washington, where our family enjoys hiking, biking, sailing, and splashing in puddles. (Buttons Diapers)When my Buttons Diaper arrived, I noticed how carefully packed it was. The package was wrapped in Paper, tied with twine and had the buttons logo on it. The Buttons Diaper family really knows how to feel a mama feel special when she’s opening her mail! I love when a company goes above and beyond for customer service.
According to the website these diapers are created to fit babies 9-35lbs. There are 2 size inserts for these diapers – Small (9-20lbs) and Larger (20-35lbs). I waited until Peanut was about a month old before I tried this on her. When she was born, she was only 6lbs, so a few pounds shy of the minimum weight. Currently she is just shy of 9lbs, and it appears to work well! I love the fact that the liners just snap in and out. This makes it so much easier to just take some extra liners when we go anywhere – instead of having to take 4 extra diapers. (Granted, there’s always the chance of a poop-plosion, so throw an extra buttons diaper in your bag as well).
The Cover has a soft silky texture on the outside, and a rubbery feel on the inside. The size snaps (wings) have a lot of give to them. This makes it so much easier to snug the diaper up around Peanuts waist.
At first, I thought that these diapers were going to be too bulky on such a little girl. But as you can see in the picture, they are a bit bulkier than disposable diapers, but Peanut is not phased by it. Since she is still waking every couple hours, we are good with just using 1 insert. But if your lil one is sleeping through the night, you can add in a second insert!
You can purchase Covers for 11.00 and the inserts for $10.00 Per pack. Or you can purchase a whole package of diapers! I am actually looking forward to my next pay day – so I can look into buying another diaper cover and inserts!
Also, Make sure to follow them on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest.
