Diaper Review
I decided to test some new diapers. I don't know why I decided to do this. I guess I just like to research just about anything. So I ordered some new diapers (all environmentally friendly, I have been done with the Huggies and Pampers for a while) and have come to some conclusions.
The first brand I tried was Tender Care. These SUCK. Every time I used them on Caden, the leaked. I had to change his pants every time the diaper got wet. I don't know what was wrong with them, but seriously, EVERY TIME. I ended up throwing those away.
The next brand I tried was Seventh Generation. I am kind of enjoying these. They are nice and stretchy, and they absorb well (unlike the previous brand). Rocky doesn't like that they are tan instead of white. This isn't really a big deal to me. The only thing I don't like about them is that they seem to leave a little residue on Caden's bum. It reminds me of Pampers and Huggies, which always left little gel things all over him. Other than that, they are good.
The final brand I tried was Nature Babycare. This is the brand I have actually been using for the last 8 months or so. These still remain my favorite. They are stiffer and less flexible than the Seventh Generation, but they don't leave stuff of Caden's butt. I also have never had a leaking problem. I did get a bad batch one time, where the diaper kept detaching from the Velcro, but that was just once. These still remain my favorite. I also use the wipes, but am also trying new wipes. I am currently using the Seventh Generation wipes, and they are a bit disappointing. They are too thin, and they kind of clump together when I take them out.
So, in conclusion, Nature Babycare win both categories for me (wipes and diapers). Either way, I want to encourage everyone to at least try using environmentally friendly diapers.

Thanks for the diaper review. It is nice to have someone else do all the "dirty work" to find out the best ones out there.
