Luvs Diapers We Use Day Or Night

October 3, 2013 · by Tiffany Merritt · 3 Comments

This is a sponsored post for SheSpeaks/Luvs. All thoughts and opinions expressed here are strictly my own, as always. 

A few weeks ago we went on a little vacation. While we primarily cloth diaper, I’ve mentioned before that my family chooses to use disposables when we are away from home for more than 6 hours or so. I opted to take this particular brand of diapers for daytime use.

These are Luvs Super Absorbent Leakguards, and this particular version is only available at Walmart. It can absorb 15% more than its counterparts, making it an extremely effective diaper at a very affordable price (.16/diaper for size 3!). As the campaign states, the clue is in the blue, so just look for that blue “super absorbent leakguards” seal on the package when you go to purchase.

These diapers worked absolutely great during the day. We didn’t encounter a single problem with them, no matter the contents of the diaper (and I think you know what I’m talking about here!). No diaper worries means more time to play and have fun, and that we did!

Now most any parent can tell you that there is a distinct difference between the diapers that work well during the day, and those that are needed for night time. Typically kids get their diapers changed every 2 hours or so during the day, but at night they could go as long as 12 hours in just one diaper. So that diaper has to be ready to work REALLY hard!

I hadn’t planned on even trying these Luvs diapers overnight, as we have found a brand of overnight disposables that we like just fine. But when we reached for those diapers during our out-of-town trip, we realized that neither one of us had actually packed them. Oops! We had no choice but to give the Luvs diapers a try.

And guess what? They worked!!! We used them 3 nights in a row without a single leak! I have to say, I was really impressed with that. So these diapers get my seal of approval for a great, affordable diaper for day or night. And Layah loves them, too. She thinks the monkey on the diapers is cute and loves to show it off. I have to keep my eye on that one!

MABU Newborn Cloth Diaper Kit Available at Walmart!

May 15, 2012 · by Tiffany Merritt · 136 Comments

Did you know that not everybody likes to shop online? I am so comfortable shopping this way that I sometimes forget that not everybody is! But it’s true. I don’t think my mother, for example, has ever purchased ANYTHING online. I make online purchases a few times each month! 🙂

Not wanting to make online purchases can definitely be a tough obstacle to overcome if you want to cloth diaper. Not very many cities have cloth diapers storefronts (we had one in Chattanooga, but it closed, I assume due to lack of sales…such a bummer). And the big box stores don’t carry cloth diapers. They are still carrying those horrific plastic pants that parents were using 20 and 30 years ago. Yuck!

Cloth Diapers at Walmart

That is, until now. There’s a company that has managed to get itself into select Walmart stores, and I’m so thrilled to see it! It makes cloth SO much more accessible to so many people! It’s called MABU Baby, and they have put together entire starter kits so that you can get started on your cloth diaper journey with ease.

So why did Walmart choose this particular line? MABU Baby has worked really hard to make their cloth diapers VERY affordable. Affordability is another hurdle for many people when starting with cloth. Yes, there’s no doubt that over time you will spend more on disposables than on cloth, but spending several hundred dollars to build your stash at the beginning is simply not doable for many people’s budgets, whereas $13 for a package of disposables this week IS doable.

The MABU Starter Kit comes with everything you need to try out a few different ways to cloth diaper, and it is priced right at $33.99 (as compared to $20-25 for one cloth diaper in many other brands). cloth diapers walmart

  • 2 diaper outers
  • 2 snap-in pad holders,
  • 2 washable diaper pads
    plus
  • 2 disposable diaper pads and
  • 5 liners
With the MABU system you can try out full cloth diapering, and you can try out the hybrid method, where you re-use your shells, but have disposable diaper pads inside the shells. This second system is more expensive than going fully cloth, but it is a great way to transition from fully disposable to fully cloth if you need some time to adjust or if you are still feeling nervous about the extra laundry and want to minimize the amount you will have.
Our experience with the MABU system has been very positive so far. We have the newborn kit and the diapers fit Layah wonderfully. While MABU diapers lack some of the bells and whistles of more expensive cloth diapers, they still get the job done just fine. I think their greatest asset is their affordability, and I applaud Walmart for starting to carry this brand so that more people can discover the savings to be had by switching to cloth diapers.

Win it!: One lucky Stuff Parents Need reader will win an MABU stater kit in your choice of size! Sizing information found here: http://mabubaby.com/use-and-care/sizing-secure-fit
