Two Moms Review Baby Babu Plus a Giveaway

Hope and Joe Chanda not only are the blessed parents of twin boys but also manage to find time to operate their business Baby Babu.

Joe has been a joy to work with!  I’ve really come to appreciate owners who care about their customers and representatives.

Several months ago I was sent products to try out.  Due to my busy schedule I asked reader Daniella to put Baby Babu to the test of course not before I could put it on Camden first!

There are several aspects I want to point out that I liked about Baby Babu pocket cloth diapers:

  • Snap inside pocket to secure the insert.
  • Inner gussets to help prevent leaks or blow-outs.
  • Several rise snaps.  Camden has a short rise allowing me to set the rise on the 2nd row.  Giving him plenty of growing room.  Camden is the same height and weight as Daniella’s son mentioned below and as you will see the diaper fit him much differently.
  • A front and back pocket opening. No need to pull out the insert as it will agitate out due to the water being allowed to flow through the opening pushing the insert out.
  • Low price point for a one-sized pocket cloth diaper.
  • Adorable applique/embroidery choices.  I am loving this Slow Down! turtle

Overall, I was pleased with the performance and cute factor of Baby Babu pocket cloth diapers.

I hope that by adding Daniella’s perspective you will get a well-rounded review.

(this portion was written by Daniela Cárdenas.)

We received our Baby Babü (RUFF RUFF Dog ) Pocket Cloth Diaper as part of an assorted fluff mail. While I was going through each item, my son quickly spotted the Baby Babü and kept it to himself. That is a good start, a toddler that hugs a diaper because the doggie flapping tongue!

As usual washed everything prior to use and this was the very first diaper he requested to use ( he was 20mo when we received it). My very first worry were the snaps. I had not much experience with them and my son has no patience to wait for me while I adjust the fit.

The few (about 6-8x) times we used it within our rotation stash, we had a great performance. A fair trimness and absorbency were reached as I added a hemp doubler to the included microfiber insert as usual for summer days when D raises his fluids intake. No “opportunity” to try the leg gussets with any blowout (phew!) but for us soft inner gussets help to avoid the dreaded elastic marks in his tights.

The two openings sure helped to stuff the diaper easier and comfortably. Never used the front snap though always forgot it was there.

I was able to adjust properly the fit through the snaps but it was the right fit only for the moment. He was hitting the 28lbs and just above 34” tall. He used the diaper all unsnapped and you could tell he would outgrow the rise any day soon. Actually, you could get a peek if he got all busy playing around.

He is a solid boy that is for sure, and most OS diapers are leaving us as he approaches and surpasses the 30lbs mark. We started cloth diapering when he turned one year old, but I can tell this is a great diaper for those that start cloth diapering with younger or slimmer babies.

Said that, after a couple of weeks I decided to pass on this cute diaper to a dear friend that is expecting her second child. Her oldest is a couple of months younger and a bit shorter than D.

She tried the diaper on him “just for fun”. He usually wears one-size diapers in the medium setting but with Baby Babü he needed all the way unsnapped. That is why she decided to keep it for the new baby on December.

    I like the turtle diaper best. So cute! Autumn, I love how you introduce so many neat brands! I always go check out their websites. Though pretty much my stash is complete, I’ve been looking for bamboo inserts to replace some microfiber. Baby babu has them so I may just need to try some! Thanks!!!

    Sooo happy just to see black diapers, not all companies offer black and I personally am not a big fan of thy typical prints, but the honey bee is very cute!

    Wow, i think I should give it a try, even though I do not prefer a microfiber insert. Do they have Bamboo as an option?

    I can’t wait to try them out. So many cute designs and I love the idea of it being open at both ends for stuffing. I am having another LO in a few weeks. I wonder how it will fit the newborn? My first was 8#10oz so some OS fit him.

    Thanks!

    I would definitely choose the pretty in pink os pocket. There’s nothing that it wouldn’t go with in her closet and being at two months and 15.5lbs she’ll get plenty of wear out of it!

    I would choose a pocket in a solid color (don’t like prints). I am looking for some affordable pockets for baby #2’s daycare and I think I will try these!
