Sustainable Hemp Products Cloth Diaper Review

Let me start this off by showing you the "parts" of the diaper and how it looks on a a baby...

This is  a fitted diaper for birth to approximately 6 months.

Here are the parts to the Lushies: the diaper, a prefold insert, and a booster.

Here's how it looks on little Miss!

Sorry about the sideways picture...my computer won't fix this for some reason lol. But here's a close up.

Cutest little toosh I ever did see :-)

 I can honestly start this review off by saying, this diaper is by FAR the best! I know you might be thinking, "she just started cloth diaper, and this is her first review...what does she know?!" Well, I can tell you that with all the research I've done so far, there isn't a diaper out there that compares to Sustainable Hemp Products "Lushies"! Not only are they absolutely adorable and stylish, but they're thinner than most diapers I've tried so far. They still have a little cushion to them, but I can still put Kaelyn's 0-3 months bottoms on her, which I couldn't do with the SweetBabyDoll or Nubunz diapers.

I mean, sure, you'll find plenty of diapers out there that are amazing, stand up to moisture and waste very well, but you won't find one that's BEYOND soft! Who wouldn't want their baby's bottoms to be touch with the best, softest, velour fabric?! They only seem to get softer with EVERY wash!

Now, features that I LOVE about this diaper...

• Super soft prefold insert - it's just as soft as the whole diaper itself. When I first looked at the prefold insert, I wasn't sure something like it was going to absorb moisture. It just didn't look like it was made for absorbing liquids, but oh boy, was I wrong! The prefold insert did its job and more. Kaelyn had NO leaks through the times she wore it. Even at night when she slept 5-7 hours at a time, it held up! The big question that everyone wonders about each cloth diaper...can it hold up to those extremely poopy messes?! Well, without going into too much detail, it held up to Kaelyn's poo like a champion!!! The cloth prefold really did its job! (Makes you want something like this for your toosh when you're older and have to wear diaper! HAHA!) 

• Booster - great for night time when you want to avoid leaking when you change diapers less often. These boosters come in hemp or bamboo. Either one will do the job of protecting against heavy wetters! 

•  Snap closures - I prefer these over velcro because the snaps last longer than velcro.

•  Zig-zag stitch all the way around the diaper for maximum comfort. 

Zig-zag stitch all the way around the entire diaper

 This was the first diaper not to leave an elastic impression anywhere on Kaelyn after we used it. I also think that the stitch adds character to the diaper as a whole.

The only thing that makes me COMPLETELY sad, is that Sustainable Hemp Products is based in Australia. (Makes me wish I could go there are personally thank Michelle for such wonderful products!) Australia means hefty shipping costs, BUT I plan on buying more of these diapers, and they're ENTIRELY worth the extra amount of shipping you have to pay to get them to you here in the states. Cloth diapers make up for their cost in a matter of weeks vs disposables, so even if you have to pay the extra shipping, the diapers still make up for it! A great way to cut some shipping costs are to go in on orders with friends to split the shipping, which I plan on doing with my next order! :-)

Here's one of the diapers I hope to get....

 I TOTALLY LOVE THE RAINBOW FABRIC! LOL!
