Mommy's Favorite Things: Katydid Review & Giveaway

Katydid Review & Giveaway



Since switching back to cloth diapers, I've been trying out a lot of different companies. This time I was able to review one from Katydid. I love this diaper.

Look how low those adjustable rise snaps are? That means it gets REALLY small. I love how trim this diaper is. It comes with a larger insert and a small newborn insert. I use both together for at night because Avery is a super wetter. I like the hip snaps which would prevent wing droop on a newborn, but they don't do much for a toddler so I don't use them. Love the double row of snaps and I love the Overlap snaps. This diaper also fits that 4.5 lb doll of Avery's which has a 15.5" waist. It fits her pretty well actually.

The absorbency of this diaper is amazing because it's microfiber, but also because it's microfiber we can't use it too often. When Avery uses microfiber inserts she gets ammonia burn BAD. So we have to use Hemp or Bamboo or homemade Flannel. It stinks, but it has to be done!

Diaper fits from 8-35 pounds (roughly) so that is a good range.

Price: They are $17.95 which is a great price. 

Overall: **** I wish they offered a different type of insert like Hemp or Bamboo or Hemp/Bamboo!


 *Disclaimer* I received these products directly from the Company for Review. I was not paid to try out these products!*

I learned that you should set your washer on a big enough load size so there's plenty of water to get the diapers clean.

I have a Katydid in twilight and it is actually one of my favorite diapers. I LOVED the price! It's a fantastic price for a pocket diaper. I wish they had more color options. I like how it opens in the front instead of the back which is a nice change but I don't really see much of a difference in the long run.
