The original Kushies diaper has 8
layers of 100% cotton flannel plus an inner waterproof barrier. They also have the same built in flap as the Kushies Ultra Diaper. Soft leg elastic
and adjustable hook and loop fastening closures ensure a snug fit. Machine washable and
dryable. This is a very soft and absorbent diaper.
Since they have a waterproof barrier
built in, you should be able to go for an hour or so without any leaking. Some moms find that they don't need a cover at all but we recommend when you try one of these diapers (at least at first) you should use an Bummis
pant, the Prorap Classic,
the Bummis
Super or the Kushies
wrap. Most babies may need to have a cover on the Kushies Classic all of the time to prevent leaks, although some moms tell me that they don't ever use a cover with this diaper.
The Infant size will not fit your newborn - it its really too big. It will start fitting most babies when they are around one month old. Kushies diapers come to me in presorted packages of prints and
solids. Because I get a random assortment, specific color and print choices
are not available. Made in Canada by Kushies.
Author: Unknown A nice absorbent fitted diaper. You can use them without a cover for a little while, but for most kids I recommend using a cover at all times for driest results.
Author: krwyatt@... These diapers just did not have a good fit for my little one. We had a lot of leaks in the leg area. There are more versatile diapers out there. Also the absorbancy was not that great.
Author: Jedi4plus4@... I didn't start using cloth diapers until my daughter turned one. I have only tried the Kushies brand from Jardines.I have the AIO's as well as the Basic and the Classic Kushies. My daughter weighs 22lbs and is 30" long. She is of average build. I purchased the toddler size for 22-35lbs to be safe. I love the Classics right now. They last for 3-4 hours with only an extra Kushie liner in them-but I do use a Kushie wrap. That's the only wrap I've tried and it seems to work well.
Author: chelsea I like these diapers. The inner waterproof liner makes them stay dry a little longer than other fitted diapers but they do need a cover eventually. I've used these for my toddler. I like the fit. I don't use them overnight. I'm not sure if they will contain runny poop if used on an infant.
