I reviewed my Babykicks Bumboo pocket diaper about 16 months ago, then compared the Bumboo pocket to the new 3G pocket about 7 months ago. I love the Babykicks Joey Bunz one size inserts, especially with the improved tapered end and sizing guidelines. Please view my full Babykicks 3G Pocket Diaper review for all the details and photos!
I also made a video demonstrating how to use the newborn snap. This is one of only a handful of one-size diapers that I think would really work on a newborn!
The 3G pocket is available in 4 great colors, plus the white with multicolored snaps. It’s a trim one-size pocket with a front pocket opening and side snaps, and the snap down rise allows it to fit babies from 7-40 pounds. The waterproof PUL outer has fleece gussets that allow air flow, but not leaks. The lining of the diaper is 30% Certified Organic Cotton and 70% Rayon made from Bamboo, a great choice if you prefer natural materials over microfleece or suedecloth.
The Babykicks 3G pocket diaper retails for $20.50 and is available at lots of online and “brick and mortar” retailers! Be sure to follow Babykicks on Twitter and “like” Babykicks on Facebook.
Giveaway: Babykicks is offering one of my readers a 3G pocket diaper in his/her choice of color (ARV $20.50.) Entries go in the Rafflecopter form.

We all know that pregnant women are supposed to sleep on their left side, but it’s not always comfy. I’ve heard of some women kicking their hubbies out of bed to make room for bulky pregnancy pillows! Utterly Yours has a better pregnancy pillow to keep you comfortable, and your spouse in bed!
The Utterly Yours pregnancy pillow is made in the U.S.A and has a cube design that opens into two triangles. The solid side is eco-friendly memory foam (hypoallergenic, zero gas emissions, pollutant free manufacturing process) that conforms to your belly. The patterned side is a higher density (firmer) foam that supports your back and keeps you comfortably on your side.
The pillow is compact enough to travel with, but it isn’t overly complicated or difficult to use. The fabric that connects the two sides stretches to accommodate a growing belly, but it’s available in 3 sizes so you can get a great fit. If you’re very close to the maximum, you may want to size up. Otherwise one pillow will get you through your pregnancy! The pillow is available with 6 different color/pattern combinations, and the cover is removable and machine washable! Each pillow retails for $44.95 plus S&H, and are also available through distributors, retailers and online retailers.
Giveaway: Utterly Yours is offering one of my readers a pregnancy pillow in her choice of size and color (ARV $44.95.)
The Mailbox Mondays feature is where I answer a reader submitted question, and ask my readers to help too!
Questions don’t have to be cloth diaper related, just email maria at change-diapers.com with “Mailbox Mondays” in the subject, or fill out my contact form for readers, which you will always be able to find on my Contact Page.
This week’s is sort of a multi-parter, but both of my askers (that’s probably not a word, is it?) already know that cloth rocks, they just need help convincing someone they love!
Dodie says:
Hello I am writing this to find a way for one of my daughters to know the savings and the reason that cloth is much better than disposables. Can you explain to me the difference in the diapers and what you need to know for a new mother?
Thank you
Maria wants to live in a world where cloth diapers are the norm and moms can make parenting choices without judgement. When she’s not chasing her 18, 14 and 11-year old kids around, you might find her checking out the latest gadgets, organizing something (again) or exercising in the fresh air. Read More »
