My first thought when Baby Babu sent me their one size pocket diaper to test out was that it would be a perfect diaper to go with a honey bee Halloween costume.
It’s definitely cute enough to be worn enough every day, but seriously, wouldn’t it complete a bee costume perfectly? Or maybe a referee costume. Don’t worry, if you’re not into bright, bold stripes, they have lots of other patterns and prints available.
The Dirty Details:
Day Use: 4 Bums Up
Overnight Use: 3 Bums Up
Ease of Use: 4 Bums Up
Quality: 4 Bums Up
Overall: 4 Bums Up
Daytime Use:
The Baby Babu pocket diaper has a few features I really love.
The double leg gussets are the biggest seller for me, because they help contain messes really well. Since Levi is a toddler and has more solid stools, that isn’t as big of a deal as it used to be, but I remember EBF poo all too well, and if I ever have another one, I’m making sure all my dipes have the double gussets.
For daytime use, we didn’t have any issues. I don’t bother to snap in my inserts – I don’t get the point. I’ve never had problems with inserts bunching up inside the diaper, BUT I also only use one insert for Levi. I think it would be beneficial to help keep everything in place if I was using two inserts or stuffing an extra soaker in.
Overnight Use:
Like most microfiber diapers, the Baby Babu just didn’t cut it for us at night. Levi soaked through and woke up wet. No issues with naptime, though.
Ease of Use:
You guys know I’m not a fan of the elastic back (I prefer the envelope style). Since this has openings on both sides (both elastic AND envelope), I was still able to shake out my wet insert without touching it. (Don’t forget: I don’t snap my inserts. If you snap your insert, you will have to touch it to unsnap it).
Quality:
The Baby Babu had great stitching, the PUL was good quality, and there are plenty of snaps so that you are able to get a good fit on your child. I think it’s a very well-made diaper for the price ($11.99).

i love the colors and how easy they look to use
Double gussets?? You’re speaking my language!! My little guy always does better with the double gussets because he has a big booty and skinny legs
I love these diapers although my baby hasn’t been born yet I think it might be one of my faves in my stash so far. When I first purchased the cheetah fuzzy the first thing I thought was that is was an extremely well made diaper like Jen said. I also love the double leg gussest as well. I am thinking of pairing this dipe with a bamboo and microfiber insert during night use. Would love to win one of these!
Looks like your standard China cheapie/relabeled Alva. OK diaper but you may as well get the Alva label and pay less…
I love this diaper has double gussets. I have another diaper made like this on the inside and it’s one of my favorite diapers.
Happy start of the week and thanks for the giveaway! We love pocket diapers!
I’ve always wanted to try these diapers and the reviews i read about them are great! Double gussets are always a plus in my book
The Double leg gussets are awesome. I have one like it and wish the rest of my stash had it too

I really like the design
I love the double leg gussets as my son is EBF and well I don’t think I need to go in to graphic detail.

Id love to win! I’ve been dying to make the switch to cloth diapers but just don’t have the budget yet. Thanks for the chance!
I like that it has openings in the back and front.
I love that the inserts actually agitate themselves out in the wash!
Double leg gussets! Still have a couple weeks before solids come into play, so I am deep in love with the dlg keeping in my man’s ebf poo
