I received compensation and product samples to facilitate this review. All opinions remain my own. Cub was a big baby. By the time we tried our first AppleCheeks, he was plenty big enough to wear their Size 2 envelope cover, and he wasn’t even a year old! When he finally stopped wearing diapers earlier this…
With Little Miss Cub at around 13 lbs and Big Brother Cub at 35 lbs, all three sizes of AppleCheeks Envelope Covers (and their Learning Pants) are in rotation at our house. I thought you might like to know just how we stuff each size. AppleCheeks Size 1 Little Miss wore her first AppleCheeks shortly after…
I love me some AppleCheeks: we’ve got all three sizes in regular rotation at the Den! (Cub wears Size 2 during the day and Size 3 for bedtime, Little Miss has worn Size 1 since birth.) I know AC fans have been hoping for cloth trainers for quite some time, and I’m happy to announce…
Yup, my life-long dream of having TWO kids in cloth diapers is a reality! Okay, it was only a dream for a shortwhile, and only until I got the coveted “matching fluff” picture. Now, I’m ready for the dream to end with a big boy in (non-poop-stained) undies. But I digress (don’t I always?). I…
I received this item for free to facilitate this review. All opinions remain my own. It’s no secret around here that I’m a big fan of AppleCheeks diapers for Cub. I’m also a big fan of Natasha at The Baby Footprint, and when she approached me to review a SURPRISE AppleCheeks exclusive product… I said…
I received this product free for review. I’m already a huge AppleCheeks fan, so I was hoping, hoping and hoping that for some reason I would need to try a Size 3 envelope cover. While AppleCheeks Mamas must collect them all, a Size 3 “rainbow” isn’t exactly a necessity (and there are only three colours…
Since first creating my famous (or so I’d like to believe) Overnight Cloth Diaper Insert Sandwich recipe, I’ve tried other overnight cloth options, but I still go back to this combination. Even on marathon nursing nights, Cub wakes up to dry sheets (apart from drool). I know a lot of Mamas swear by a solid…
If you had told me before I had my son and joined the online cloth diapering community that I would one day count down the days to a cloth diaper brand’s new release party, then eagerly participate in said event… well I would’ve thought you were nuts. Firstly: What? Cloth diaper brands have release parties?…
Post updated, Jan. 24, 2015. To the uninitiated, AMP sized diaper covers and AppleCheeks (AC) sized diaper covers look pretty darn similar. They come in very similar colours, and are the only two brands with the distinctive ruffles at the waist and around the legs. Both are marketed as being usable as a pocket…
Updated March 2019 Once upon a time, someone asked me: “Why doesn’t everyone use cloth diapers?” One of the answers I gave was that parents are turned off by the initial investment of $20-$30 per diaper. Admittedly, I was also quite intimidated by the price tag of many of the popular brands. What I want…
