Congratulations Jen & Andy!You are the winner!
Hi! LeAnn from Giggle Britches here again. With the fall season and cooler
weather on the horizon, fleece sleepers and pants are hitting the racks in all your favorite department stores. Cloth diapering moms know fleece is a big time material in the cloth diapering world. Many wonder if these items can be used as covers. As long as they are 100% polyester, they can! So what makes fleece so great? Read on!What is fleece?
Polar fleece (usually just referred to as fleece) is a synthetic material meant to mimic wool. Made from 100% polyester, fleece is designed to allow moisture to transfer through the fabric, or wick moisture through the fabric. When used as a cover, the moisture is pulled away from the diaper to the outer surface of the cover. It spreads out and evaporates into the air.Benefits of using fleece as a cover:
- Highly Breathable
- Lightweight
- Easy to care for and clean
- Fast drying
- Very soft and comfy
- Great for heavy wetters and nighttime diapering
- Less expensive than wool
- Bulky
- Synthetic material, unlike wool
- More likely to retain urine smell than wool or PUL covers
- Compression leaking
With winter soon approaching, I have pulled out our stock of the Stacinator fleece covers in this adorable snowman print. I am giving you the chance to win one in a size newborn (6-10 lbs, 13" waist, 6-8" thighs, runs a little big). Don't have a tiny baby - this make a great gift too! Giveaway ends 10-4-10.
WIN IT!!

I've never used a fleece cover and have a baby due in November. A newborn fleece cover would work well with the Kissaluvs we've ordered for her newborn stage.

When my son would go through phases of heavy wetting at night, I would put him in cheap fleece lounge pants that I could buy at the discount stores

ReplyDeleteI have used fleece soakers that I made. Stop using fitteds early on, so no longer needed covers. I used them again while DD was potty learning.
I have 3 fleece covers...but little one hasn't arrived yet, so I haven't used them! (I have them from WinkyDinks, Liberty Belle, and Cottontail Babies)

ReplyDeleteWe actually JUST made the decision to switch to cloth. With an 8 month old and another due in January, it was kind of a no-brainer! I have not yet used a fleece cover, although I did order one from an etsy shop. It hasn't gotten here yet. :) Thanks for the chance!

We had one homemade fleece cover when DD was a newborn, but we didn't use it much because it was a pull on cover. Love to try this one!
