Nora's Nursery Cloth Diapers 7 Pack with 7 Inserts & 1 Wet Bag - Waterproof Cover, Washable, Reusable & One Size Adjustable Pocket Diapers for Newborns and Toddlers - Modern Blooms

Okay, this is gonna be long, but being a new mom and cloth diapering, I am really happy that I found these diapers already. I will say that I haven’t tried every brand. Every family will have their favorite brand/style, and what works for one baby may not work for another, but for me and mine, these are our favorites!We use a diaper service, so I can’t attest to the actual inserts. However, these are our favorite diaper covers! We lay a prefold on top, but I like having the option to stuff in the future. They come in more appealing colors and patterns than a lot of other brands. The fit works well with my baby— he is long and lean, but is starting to chub up a little now at 5 months and they still fit him well.We used newborn sized Rumparooz and Alva baby, and I really liked the way the Alva baby covers fit— less bunchy than the rumparooz. (Also have some thirsties, which we hate. They just seem cheap and unappealing for some reason. I dunno, I can’t explain it.) I also liked how they were lined with fabric that touched the baby’s skin rather than the actual lamination, so I looked for ones similar in bigger diapers and found Norah’s Nursery. Not that I have used the inserts, but the Norah’s inserts are much better to touch than Alva baby because they are made from sustainable bamboo vs microfiber which feels icky to handle. Being made of bamboo allows you to place the inserts on top without having to stuff, also because it’s a material that can touch baby’s skin unlike microfiber.The rumparooz also seemed like the elastic band was too bulky and tight leaving red indentations on baby’s back. The Norah’s don’t seem to do that as much.The price is excellent for the 7 pack bundle plus a wet/dry bag compared to many other brands. It’s nice to get them in a bundle and not have to purchase individually. We use the covers once and then wash which works well for us, but for people who would prefer to use covers that can be wiped and reworn, these may not be the best option. (I found that wiping down and rewearing diaper covers made my baby stinky faster, so prefer to use a new cover every time.)The fabric seems to contain the mess better than the rumparooz, ie sans fabric. Without fabric, they are a little easier to spray off the poo (with a bidet sprayer), but not by much. We haven’t had any crazy poopoo leaks and only seem to get peepee leaks when we wait too long to change him or when he goes a lot while in his activity center stander thing or carrier because of the way he’s being held around his thighs and bum— if that makes sense. Basically, no crazy leaks as long as he’s changed regularly which should be done anyway haha.I have purchased four packs of 7. I did have a delamination issue with the Cali Coastal pack; 2 diapers delaminated after a couple of weeks and a 3rd looks like it might eventually. However, I contacted the company and they responded quickly and replaced the pack. The other styles I have have been fine. It was probably just a bad batch, but I opted for a different style just in case.So now, with a total of 33 diaper covers, I do about laundry twice a week. Although, 28 covers was more than enough haha. (For new parents— We had about 20 newborn covers and I was doing laundry every other day. With age, babies go through less diapers, so 20 might be more than enough. I prefer having more to wash in larger loads.) I wash on a heavy duty cycle with a pre-wash and extra rinse on warm and hang to dry. Been using Dreft and adding a bit of Borax because we have super hard water and vinegar as softener. They have been washed probably close to 20 times by now and have held up perfectly (aside from the defective batch). They dry super fast when hung, too. Oh, and they stack nicely! Unlike the rumparooz. Oh, and I’ve washed the diaper inserts on regular cycle with other clothes just to prepare them if we decide to cancel our service later and after five washes, they look pretty much like new.Lastly, the company seems to actually care about sustainability with minimal, plant-based packaging and using bamboo inserts. So yay!

First of all, this is a totally honest, unaffiliated and unsponsored review of cloth diapering AND NN’s cloth diapers.I’m a mom to three boys and WISH I had started cloth diapering with my first. Alas, we JUST had our third almost two months ago and cloth diapering has been a GAME CHANGER for us.My first two never had a single diaper rash, but the third started reacting to anything we put on him - including HelloBellos and Pampers. And even with premium brands and insanely frequent changes, we were getting leaks and blowouts *at least* once a day. Since we started cloth diapering, he’s not had a single reaction or rash. I started about a week ago and, after figuring out you have to make sure the gussets are in the leg creases (first day bloopers), I had my first leak today and, again - it was because I was delirious and didn’t make sure the gussets were properly placed. It’s not hard, I just have two other kids that are in homeschool, we’re in the middle of DIY home renovations ahead of putting our house on the market and my husband has been totally swamped with work (so basically flying solo, so basically just run a little ragged lol!)If that hasn’t sold you on cloth diapers yet - consider this. The cost of building a basic stash (24-36 diapers, so say 4 sets of NN diapers) plus supplies (hand-held bidet, spraying shield and separate small laundry basket, plus an extra set of inserts to double up with at night) is a little over $300. The cost of using premium diapers over the course of an estimated 6-8k diaper changes (yes, that many until they’re potty trained) is between $4,500 and $6,000. Unless you’re cool with throwing money away on a sub-par product, cloth diapering is an absolute win.For absolutely new parents, I’d honestly still recommend keeping a few disposables around just until you feel more comfortable in your role as a parent and don’t have to figure out a wash routine on top of everything else. But once you’ve kind of got your baby figured out and your body doesn’t feel like an absolute mess, absolutely go for cloth diapering.Nora’s are my absolute favorite of the brands I’ve tried so far. They are the most boy-friendly and chic when it comes to colors and patterns of those on the market right now and their specific cut/design pattern is just perfect. I won’t be ordering anything else for our little guy from here on out. Truly. I can’t believe I’ve become that mom that literally RAVES about a diaper brand, but here I am. Here you are, reading this. (Oh, how children change us.)So you need about 24-36 diapers to keep you from having to wash frequently. As stated previously, I’d also recommend a hand-held bidet and shield to rinse poop off in the toilet with and keep the mess from spraying all over as well as an extra set of inserts to double up with at night. There are a lot of good graphics debunking what kind of inserts work best for what (absorbency vs speed of absorbency) - just google “cloth diaper insert absorbency chart.” Mine have done great at night with two bamboos, but you might want to go rogue mad scientist and try another material.Nora’s Nursery’s free e-book is gold and there is a LOT of amazing information on Fluff Love University, too. When it comes to figuring out a rinse/wash/dry routine, take notes in your phone and try it out and see how it works for you. If you run into any problems, google and adjust accordingly. I figured my wash routine out in about two days of trial and error [hard water, water volume and load size, along with agitation cycle, are all factors but it’s not at all hard to determine and adjust those once you know that they’re determining factors (I did not, thus the trouble shooting)]A separate side-note on pants: cloth diapering does add bulk and some brands of pants will not fit well and may look absolutely ridiculous. One way to mitigate this is to go up a size in pants, but there are brands that work really well with CDs. Gerber Organics and Old Navy have been great so far and supposedly Gap and Garanimals are other good ones, too. I’ve attached a picture of our son in a NN’s diaper with Old Navy leggings in his size for reference.It sounds like a LOT at first, I know. That’s what kept me from trying them with our first two and (so far) one of my biggest parenting regrets. Don’t be me two more kids later and an extra $12k in the hole before you give it a shot! Their little bums and college funds will thank you!

Between 2 children I have tried almost every brand of cloth diapers from BumGenius to off brands. By far, these are my favorite. They’re cute, soft, easy to clean and ergonomically I feel like they have the best fit. My second was born at 8’10 and quickly got over 9’. We can use NN diapers as of a couple weeks ago (CHONKY already) and the fit is the best at a great price!

I was very skeptical of reusable diapers but I have wanted to try them since I had my third child. I figured I’d put them on my baby list and if someone else bought them for me then I’d try them. But I didn’t receive them and then again having my fourth child I didn’t receive them either. But after babysitting for a friend of mine who uses reusable diapers I realized they’re not that bad!! You do have to be mindful of changing diapers more often is the only thing I have noticed. After purchasing these for my fourth baby I am bummed I didn’t buy these sooner! And I love all the designs Nora’s nursery has! I even bought gender neutral ones in case we have a fifth! 😁

They do not fit my 10lb baby. Even with the “newborn hack” that you find on youtube for this brand. They cover a majority of his belly and he HATES it which is understandable. When he eats his stomach will expand. I recommend getting newborn sizes in other brands as they do not offer them unfortunately otherwise I would purchase them. The absorption is insane compared to a regular diaper! I cant wait to be able to use them.

We use these currently as diaper covers but will be transitioning to cloth full time with these! Absolutely love these and the colors are so perfect go with everything plus gender neutral which is a bonus!

Really good fit not the most absorbent but easily fixed with extra inserts

Great nappies

I was really surprised how well these cloth diapers have held up considering the price. The snap system works well and the insert is very absorbent. I would recommend this product. The only downfall are the prints are not as appealing as other cloth diapers. They have held up well in the wash, I even dry the inserts. Overall really like them.

I wish I had bought these diapers from the beginning. They are absolutely amazing. The inserts are thick and very absorbent (after just 2 washes) and wider than my other brands, and they actually don't feel bulky at all.Most importantly, we've had NO LEAKS, not even during the night (I use them on my 8 months old girl). They also wash very well, and don't stick to anything in the washer because they don't use velcro!After testing these for a few days I went ahead and bought another set!

Absolutely love these pocket diapers, wish we would have purchased these before anything else. The cotton is soft and the PUL and snaps are of good quality. The inserts are okay, we usually need to add a booster especially at night. Overall we are happy with this purchase.
