UPDATE: This diaper is no longer made.

Cloth diapers at night…{insert scary Halloween music here}…Does that describe how you feel? Yes? Then PLEASE let me help you. Your baby CAN go to sleep in a cloth diaper and wake up in the morning with dry PJ’s and sheets. REALLY!

I’m a huge fan of hemp .

  • It is a truly natural fiber.
  • It is antimicrobial.¹
  • Because of that ^^ hemp does not hold on to smell. It also means that it is easier to wash.
  • Hemp is among the MOST absorbent of materials that can be used in cloth diapers.
  • Hemp is the TRIMMEST of the materials used in cloth diapers.

I also love wool!

  • It is a truly natural fiber.
  • It is antimicrobial when lanolized. ²
  • Because of that ^^ lanolized wool does not hold onto smell. It is EASY to care for. You only wash it when it starts to smell when dry or is not waterproof anymore.
  • Wool is among the most absorbent of fibers used in cloth diapers. A wool cover can hold 30% of its weight in liquid before it even starts to feel wet!

Now that I’ve shared with you why I think hemp and wool are so amazing, allow me to introduce you to the…

…Truly Charis Heavy Wetter Challenge!

I did receive a Heavy Wetter Challenge for purposes of review. This post is my honest and true opinion. I honestly and truly think they are amazing!

Before I get into what is included, I want to talk about why the challenge is so unique! This is the only brand that I’ve ever heard of that offers a wash and wear 30 (THIRTY!) day guarantee on the fitted and the wool cover.  If you are not completely satisfied with the performance of the diaper, then return everything for a full refund (minus shipping). You can’t lose. If your kid ends up with wet sheets in the morning you send all of it back and are only out the shipping.

The Truly Charis Heavy Wetter Challenge includes a one size hemp fitted and a sized merino wool interlock soaker (cover). The fitted is made from the softest hemp I’ve ever felt. It stays that way wash after wash. Not all hemp can do that.TC

The merino wool cover is so smooshy soft that you’ll wish you had a blanket made out of it. Truly Charis even mailed out a bunch of free wool samples to members of their chat. They wanted everyone to know that wool does not equal scratchy. What better way to prove it but to actually feel it!

Snapped to the smallest settings.

Snapped to the smallest settings.

The Truly Charis fitted was also at the top of my absorbency tests. You can see the results here. The Heavy Wetter Challenge hemp fleece fitted is sized to fit 3 months to 3 years. Sophia is still in hers at night and she is around 35 pounds now. I can’t say how this would fit on a younger baby, but the trimness does lend itself to easy sizing and fit. Included are three additional hemp fleece snap in inserts so it is easy to customize the absorbency and fit for any child.

The Heavy Wetter Challenge package is on the spendy side. It won’t be in everyone’s budget. But if you can ever grab one, do it! Once you see the quality of the materials used and the craftsmanship involved you understand why it costs more. It’s also made in the USA and come on…that 30 day guarantee!!

If you have EVER struggled with cloth diapers at night…stop the nightmare!

Have you ever tried Truly Charis? What do you think, is the Heavy Wetter Challenge as amazing as it sounds?

    I can’t find the products you mention on their website. Do you know if these are still available? Or another recommendation for overnight heavy wetters ;) my boy is 22lb of chubbiness!

      She is currently up in the air about continuing to carry them. I hope she does because i love mine! The other one I would recommend is Twinkie Tush night night. They are also magic.

    I bet I would only need two with how often I do the wash and it would be great to not have to wash the sheets so often!

    Love the idea, would love to try this for my girl, but at that price… Not happening. My husband, and my budget would croak. Anything you can recommend at a more reasonable price?

      Hi Alissa! Pooters also has a fitted that is a great affordable option. It is good for an average wetter, but may still need an additional insert. That is why some fitteds are so much. There are double the amount of inserts in night fitteds. More materials and time to make = more $$$. http://www.pootersdiapers.com/diaper-types/fitted/pooterstm-one-size-fitted.html

    I also love Truly Charis!! Without these amazingly made wool covers I would be elbow deep in soaking wet sheets and baby and pillows and blankets EVERY. SINGLE. MORNING!! Truly Charis saved my sanity and is the reason I continue to use cloth over night! If you have any questions at all ask the owner Destani! She is so super knowledgeable and will help you with ANYTHING you may need or are worried about! AND they are made in the USA in her own home by her and her husband!! Can’t get any better than that! Thanks Destani for everything if you read this! I will continue to always shout your name from the rooftops! Lol you are THAT awesome!!

    So I literally spent over $100 on overnight sustainablybabyish fitteds, and several different brands of wool soakers (some from etsy, some from companies). These things are NOT cheap. And my little boy, who is a heavy wetter, woke up wet EVERY DANG NIGHT I used them. No matter how much I stuffed the silly things, he would soak through within -6 hours. Now I haven’t tried Truly Charis, but the diapers don’t look that different. Can you compare the two for me? I am tired of still having to spend money on disposables after spending all this money on cloth diapers! Thanks!

    I love our Truly Charis fitted and wool covers! I have never had wet sheets in the morning, I do not change over night. I don’t even use all 3 included inserts yet! In fact I just recently started using 2 of the 3. Definitely top notch quality. The wool is so soft, squishy and stretchy. I only have 2 wool covers but they are without a doubt the most important piece of our cloth diaper experience. The best thing about Truly Charis is the work at home mom behind it, Destani is such a warm and generous person. It’s also nice to know that you are supporting another mom, a small (local to me) business, and a family.

I used All About Cloth Diapers when my oldest (now 5) developed an allergy around 6mo to disposable diapers. If it weren’t for this site, I would have switched back to disposables because I was having so many issues with fit and cleaning. This site really helped me to understand how to cloth diaper. I have used the big book every year even after my kids potty trained because there are so many amazing deals for everyday household and personal needs! So glad I found this site and the big book!

This is a great place to learn all there is to know about cloth diapers and the care of them. There is no right or wrong way to cloth diaper. All in one's may work best for one child but flats may work best for another child. You will understand how to care for your cloth diapers so they last you. There is a wealth of information on various brands and wool as well. Highly recommend!

The all about cloth diaper chat group is also full veteran and new to cloth moms. You cant get any better resources when it comes to starting your cloth diaper journey. The owner is Jennifer is so helpful and spent a lot time making sure new parents have the information they need about starting cloth diapering their little one. I absolutely love this site and I'm a member of the group on facebook. You should definitely check out the site!!!
