Cow Patties Diaper Review and Giveaway - CLOSED

Cow Patties offers 4 different types of diapers

Pocket Diapers - Diaper has an opening to put insert inside diaper. These have an inner fabric of your choose, a layer of PUL, and if you want (why wouldn't you) you can get a cute outer fabric. Bamboo fleece insert folds for 6 layers of absorbency. Requires Velcro/snaps to close.

AI2 (all-in-two) - These have an inner fabric, a PUL layer, and you have the option of a cute outer fabric. Bamboo fleece insert snaps in for 6 layers of absorbency (this stuff is AMAZING). Your choose of snaps or Velcro to close.

Fitteds - Absorbent fabric (flannel or bamboo fleece) with a cute outer fabric (cotton knit, cotton woven, flannel). Bamboo fleece insert snaps in for 6 layers of absorbency. Fitted do require a cover.

You can use pins/snappi, Velcro or snaps to close.

Famous Pocket Fitteds (FPF) - Made out of 2 body layers of bamboo fleece with a cute outer fabric (flannel, cotton knit, cotton woven).  Insert folds up for 10-12 layers of absorbency.  The FPF do require a cover along with pins/snappi, snaps or Velcro to close. These are a great option for night time and/or heavy wetters.

We had the opportunity to review an AI2 Side snapping diaper and a pair of training pants from Cow Patties Cloth Diaper.  Our cute  monkey diaper is minky on the outside as well as on the inside.  The first thing that I noticed when I got the diaper was how incredibly soft it was.  If I was wearing a diaper (disturbing), I would want to be wearing this!  The fit is really nice too!  Because of the snap in insert, the diaper is incredibly slim and trim!

 

 

Here is Chunky Monkey in the Cow Patties Diaper :)

The bamboo snap in insert and the sewn in bamboo soaker in the pull up both take a fair amount of prepping.  This is the one downside.  It took about 10 washes in order for our diaper and trainer to be ready for use.  I tried using the trainer before it had been properly prepped and that was a waste of energy.  As soon as Little Boy Blue peed in the pull up, pee was coming out everywhere.  So do yourself a favor and make sure to follow the prepping directions :)

 I did not get any good pictures of Little Boy Blue in his trainer, but he loves his "big boy pants".  The minky on the inside is so amazingly soft (I think I have said that already)!

I can say this much.  Now that our diaper and trainer are properly prepped... THEY ARE MY FAVORITE of our AIO, AI2s, and pockets.  I love how amazingly absorbent the bamboo is.   I also love how fast the AI2 drys.  I also LOVE the price!  A typical diaper will cost you between $12 - $18!!!  You really cannot beat that price!
 

Here are some pictures of the inside of the diaper!

 For Little Boy Blue we fold the insert in half and then fold the remainder of the insert in the front. 

For Chunky Monkey, we fold the insert up toward the back of the diaper, so that the extra length is towards the back and then fold it back down.


I really appreciate that I can customize the absorbency of this diaper to each of my children!

 Cow Patties also offers wetbags, babylegs, and diaper covers!
