A Cloth Diaper Built Around Your Baby

We provide an extensive range of cloth diapering styles, and navigating them can be overwhelming. Your ideal system depends entirely on your priorities. Consider these suggestions, and feel free to contact us for additional guidance.

Diaper Systems 

• Most economical option: Duo Hemp Prefolds + Duo Wraps 
• Best leakproof protection: Duo Fitteds + Duo Wraps 
• Most convenient option: One Size All In Ones 
• Best for customizing absorbency: One Size Pocket Diapers

Natural vs. Stay Dry 
Diapers made from natural textiles, like cotton or hemp, are our best sellers. Some families prefer to have all natural textiles against baby's skin. Our custom Hemp Jersey is highly absorbent and durable. Natural textiles wash well.

Even though the Stay Dry styles aren't quite as popular, they do have definite advantages. Our synthetic diapers are light and trim, they resist staining, and they offer a dry barrier against baby's skin.

Hook and Loop vs. Snap 
Most of our families prefer snap closures. Snaps offer a more comfortable fit for baby as they are more pliable. Snaps provide a more secure fit against curious toddlers.

Our hook and loop is strong and long-lasting. Hook and loop allows for a faster diaper change, a more customized fit, and is the preferred choice for part-time caregivers.

Before Using: 

1. Invest in some gentle laundry detergent. There are many options, but a popular choice you can find locally is Tide Free + Gentle. Search online for a Cloth Diaper Detergent Index to find a detergent that works for you. 
2. Prep-wash: wash and dry all of your new Thirsties products with detergent and warm water before use.

Wash Soiled Diapers (typically every other day): 

1. Wash on a Quick Wash cycle on warm with detergent to "pre-wash" your Thirsties. 
2. Add more detergent and wash with hot water on a Heavy Duty cycle with an extra rinse. Add washing soda or Calgon if you have very hard water. 
3. Hang dry in the sun whenever and wherever possible. Alternatively, dry in the dryer on medium-high heat for about 60 to 75 minutes until fully dry. Add dryer balls for quicker drying. That's really all there is to it. But if you're the type of person who loves some really solid over-explaining, you can find our comprehensive care instructions in our Customer Center.
   
   

Natural vs. Stay Dry: Natural textiles like cotton and hemp are our best sellers, and many families prefer them directly against baby's skin. Stay Dry styles are synthetic, light, trim, and resist staining while offering a dry barrier.

Hook and loop vs. snap: Snap is our best-selling closure. Families choose it because it's more comfortable and pliable against baby, with a more secure fit against curious toddlers. Hook and loop is strong and long-lasting too, and fastens faster with a more customized fit, which many part-time caregivers prefer.
