Glow Bug Cloth Diapers *Review and #Giveaway*2 WINNERS!



I love cloth diapers(many of you know that)! I love to try different brands and styles and my latest experience was with Glow Bug Cloth Diapers. I recently discovered them and I really wanted to share my experience with you guys...so I contacted them to do a review.

I was sent a Glow Bug cloth diaper in their girly Glow Bug print for review. Their prints are totally adorable and very different from others on the market. I just LOVE their prints!!

 Super cute print with Glow Bugs on it.(Glow Bug Logo Print)

 This diaper has a pretty good fit on BuBu. I sized it how I would normally size OS diapers and it seemed a bit roomier than other brands. That is a good thing...it seems this diaper will fit great through potty training. Their diapers are made to fit babies 7-35lbs and there are four rows of adjustment snaps.


I had no leak issues with this diaper what-so-ever. I have been able to test this diaper with #1, #2 and even night time diapering. During the day, I change BuBu's diaper about every two-three hours. After about two hours, I changed her and her diaper was super heavy...perhaps she peed twice? Still, there were no leaks. I am happy to say I had no poo leak issues either. The double gussets are great for containing the poo!! For night time, I use both inserts that came with the diaper. During the day, I only use one.
 Pictured above~ you can see where the snap is located to keep the liner in place, also the gussets that helped contain the poo. The fabric you see in this photo is SlimDry, which helps reduce bulk and keep moisture away from Baby's skin. Very soft, even after multiple washings.

Glow Bug cloth diapers have a wonderful "sleeve" feature. There are openings at both the front and back of the diaper where the liner can come out in the wash. No more grabbing a stinky, soiled diaper out of the diaper...just throw it in the washer, it will come out on its own.

Their snaps are super strong and BuBu couldn't get them opened no matter how hard she tried! Great feature if you ask me!!

There was only one tiny thing that bothered me. I didn't like how there was no "extra snap" to prevent wing droop. When I let BuBu run around the house in just her diaper, I noticed the wing was a bit droopy. Not that big of a deal and it didn't affect the performance of this diaper at all.

These diapers are adorable, have a nice fit and perform great. I would definitely recommend them to friends and family! Glow Bug Cloth Diapers are only available in packages of 12.  l like to try out a product before buying in bulk so not being able to buy just one or two to try out might make people not want to invest their money. After reviewing them, I definitely feel that they are well worth the money and a lot less expensive than other brands on the market.

To Purchase
Glow Bug Cloth Diapers sell cloth diaper packages for just $150. Their packages include 12 diapers, 24 inserts and a coordinating wet bag! There are three package options: Girl, Boy, and Gender neutral. If you decide to purchase, I would love for you to use my affiliate link.
 This would make a great Christmas gift for a cloth diapering mama!! Heck, I'd love to see one of these packages under my tree this year!
