Reviews of the goodmama good.night diaper:

Nicole Alger, mother of Corey, 2 1/2 & Laurel, 2 months:

Before receiving our good.night, I was wary about using cloth overnight with our newborn daughter (now 2 months).  I could see how quickly she was peeing through prefolds and some of our miscellaneous fitteds during the day. I knew that we could not rely on those to last all night long, and I couldn't handle so many late night changes. 

Even when I would change her out of her disposable in the morning, it was pretty much busting with pee.  Although we tried regular Goodmamas on our son (2 1/2 years) some nights, we had the best results with double stuffed pockets, but when I tried the same double stuffed pockets on my daughter, it just wasn't absorbent enough to hold all of her pee. 

I was even skeptical when we received our good.night-- there was really something that she could wear all night?  I wouldn't need to wake up and change her?  We wouldn't get diaper leaks or compression wicking under a wool cover? 

After one night in her good.night, I was instantly convinced-- it can be done!  I've tried the same diaper on my daughter (who is under 10 pounds) and my son (who is nearing 30 pounds), and I've had perfect results with both.  The diaper COULD last all night, even after 10 hours of wear.  Better yet, the front didn't even feel damp when I took it off in the morning. 

The diaper looks a lot more comfortable, too; both of my kids woke up without marks caused by snaps or bunched up fabric.  It's hard to believe that there is something out there that will work with both my son and daughter that will last them until they no longer need to wear diapers at night, but I'm now confident that there is.

Jessica, mama of London, 20 months:

Before using the goodmama night diaper, I admit I used pockets at night.  I love to use natural fabrics against London's skin, but he makes it his full-time job to nurse all night long.  This makes for soaking wet fitteds and not a peaceful, comfortable night of sleep. 

When I had the chance to use a fitted that was not only super comfortable but super absorbant too, I jumped at the chance.  With the good.boost, the ultra comfy quilted soaker with no wrinkles, and that extra layer of bamboo fleece outside, it was just what we needed! 

London now wears fitteds to bed and wakes up less as well.  I know he's more comfortable.  It's just what we had been looking for!

Lynn Mansfield, mother to Camden, 1:

After cloth diapering for more than a year, we've finally found a nighttime diapering solution with the goodmama performance we've come to trust and a luxe quality that helps our baby sleep more soundly. 

While we love the absorbency and fit of our traditional goodmama prints and velours, we've been looking for a snapless solution to help our belly sleeper enjoy a restful night. 

At one year old, he is still nursing through the night, so we also needed a diaper that would seamlessly form the contours of his chunky thighs and stand up to our heavy wetter.

We had high hopes for the new good.nite and must say that we were not disappointed.  We love the customizable fit of the diaper; the familiar shape is made nighttime friendly with the use of a Snappi rather than built-in snaps.

However, the incredibly soft bamboo fleece outer allows the Snappi to be fixed securely without the worry of an accidental unfastening--perfect for those knitted wool cover users who avoid Snappis for this reason. 

On the inside, the lay-in soaker is unlike any we've tried before.  The quilted bamboo velour topper lays flat against your baby's skin, providing a comfortable night's sleep.  As our son is a heavy wetter, I love how I can place the soaker and good.boost higher in the front where we need the most protection. 

Best of all, the whole system is created from undyed, organic bamboo materials.  I love the security of knowing that the longest wearing diaper in my son's stash is made from the highest quality luxe fabrics.

Since we've been using the good.night, we've seen a decrease in the number of our son's night wakings.  Mornings are more pleasant for all of us--no more wet clothing or bedding changes!  At last, a nighttime diapering solution as good for mama as it is for baby!

Laundry

Sometimes here at goodmama we find prints and fabrics in dark and luscious colors that are too gorgeous to pass up. I know we are talking about diapers here.  They are things that get washed, and washed a lot.

The good general rule is to remember that diapers are laundry, just like everything else you wash. A new black, red or hot pink shirt will do best if it is washed separately in cold first. This cold wash sets the dye and eliminates many potential issues you may have otherwise. This same rule apples to diapers too.

It is true that you can use a goodmama fitted right out of the package, but they are actually designed to fit properly after several washes, and with bright and/or dark colors it is best to wash them in cold once before wearing. Often the pH of what goes into a diaper interacts with the unset dye in a brand-new diaper with unpredicatable results.

Another thing to be aware of, is our cotton/poly diapers may leave a fuzz on your baby the first time they wear it. This is not dye transfer, it's just little fibers left over from the shearing. If you wash your cotton/poly diapers once in cold before you ever use them, you will eliminate this fuzz and remove any possibility of dye transfer.

Many people have no problem with dye instability, but everyone's laundry routines, machines, detergent and water quality are different. Also remember, all prints eventually fade. If you had a t-shirt in one of the fabrics in our diapers, and washed it several times a week, you would expect to see fading. Diapers are, after all, clothes.

Some of our customers wash on cold, some line dry to keep the shells of the diapers out of the dryer. If you hang them in the sun, try to hang them so the print is not in the direct sunlight, unless you don't care about fading. I think a lot of faded prints look great; they have a Shabby Chic look to them. Your preferences may be different. :-)

In any case, remember: when in doubt, wash in cold first. And happy diapering!
