Seventh Generation:
I really wanted to love these diapers. They are earth friendly and chemical free for baby. They feel a bit rough which I expect from natural items (sadly) but the inside wasn't so bad. Aidan didn't seem to mind though he's starting to develop a rash (likely from his poop since that doesn't seem to absorb in any of the diapers we've tried to date). Now the reason I'm not happy...they leak 90% of the time. When he's in his car seat all scrunched up like he's safe. When he's laying down, tummy timing or being held [up right or on his back/side] he'll leak all over the place/person. I thought at first it was the direction he was pointing but even when I made sure it was pointing down we still had leaks, from the sides and/or the back. Just not a quick absorbing interior. So sad!
The wipes...well as my sister stated, "they feel like a wet paper towel". Not all that unexpected really. They could be a bit softer but I figure they are like a wash cloth in that they actually scrub off determined poop particles that love to stick places!
Babyganics:
I'm very pleased with these diapers. They absorb quickly and as of yet don't leak. They fit snuggly and aren't rubbing all up on his belly button (though I do fold down the top some). The material feels soft to my callused fingers (hopefully to his sensitive bits as well). Super absorbent as well.
Up & Up:
Another environmentally friendly diaper (sensing my theme yet?). They are larger then Babyganics but slightly smaller than 7th Gen. They are soft and comfy. Aidan seems to like them. No leaking and super absorbent. The pee indicator...love that thing. Makes it super easy to tell if he's messed his diaper.
Huggies:
Not all that nature friendly but at least fragrance free for sensitive babies. That awesome pee indicator and they fit comfortably and snugly so no leaks. Definitely like these diapers for those 2 reasons. However, because there are earth friendly alternatives that are just as good [or better because they ARE earth friendly] I'll not be purchasing these.
The wipes .... bloody soft they are! Fragrance or fragrance free I'm leery about what's in them! They do seem to clean his bum fairly well with little fuss but they struggle to get some of the poop particles off his bits or even his leg some times.
Pampers:
Again: snug fit, soft and comfy, leak proof [from the few I used at my sister's house] and that brilliant indicator strip these are great diapers. Just not very earth friendly with their plastic bits.
Well that's it! No more diapers or wipes that I've received and used. No pictures either, sorry about that! Till next time.

Lovs:
These babies
have a smell to them. The smell screams baby. Which I guess is fine, however,
once it’s full it strongly smells of urine. The one thing I never mentioned
with the other diapers I’ve tried because I never noticed it was the smell….or
lack of. These things always seem to smell and the scent permeates the whole
room and then some. So besides not being earth friendly they smell. Ok I think
I’ve mentioned that enough. They do fit snugly on baby’s waist and they hold
quite a bit…unless they are just super puffy with liquid. I’ve also noticed an
increase in bum rash! It looks and appears to be far more painful.
