Bye Bye Sposies GRAND PRIZE giveaway!!!!

It's time to say Bye Bye to this amazing event! I've hope you've all had fun and congratulations so far to the lucky winners! Before I tell you about our Grand Prize sponsors and how amazing they all are, I just want to say a huge THANK YOU to the sponsors in the previous review and giveaway through-out this event.

I'd like to introduce you to the amazing sponsors of my grand prize package #1, what I'm calling the Perfect Package. It comes with not too many diapers and a good variety of styles and brands!

--------------------------------------

First up we have Nell's Natural Baby, a family owned business from Ohio. They offer some great informational pages and programs for all your cloth diaper needs. For expecting parents, They offer a Newborn Kissaluvs Rental and Gift Registry. If you are expecting multiples, please let us know so that we can offer you our multiples discount!

Tanya has provide one Apple Cheeks lil' bundle, 1 swim diaper and 1 bottle of bumGenius Bottom Cleaner to a very lucky winner!

We also have Itti Bitti, a cloth diaper company from Australia coming in do donate in Bye Bye 'Sposies!! I cannot tell you how excited I am to have them here! Recently Itti Bitti was introduced to the USA and have been selling like hot cakes ever since! I told you about Itti Bitti's a few weeks ago in another giveaway. I was so excited when Itti Bitti sent me their Bitti Tutto and Bitti D'Lish to review, I heard about how soft these diapers were and was dying to try them. I can definitely tell you they are amazingly soft and I were I could wear them, lol. Now you can try the Bitti Tutto and Bitti D'Lish also since they have donated them to the giveaway!

Last but certainly not least we have the Calgary Cloth Diaper Co giving away 4 Baby Kanga diapers! Calgary Cloth Diaper Co is of course based out of Canada and a mom owned business. Accidentally falling into cloth diaper in 2005 and then adopting modern cloth diapers, Krissy wanted to make an online boutique to promote excellent cloth diapers for everyone. Krissy also offers a Newborn Rental Kit at just $40 a month for about 21 diapers and a pail liner to keep your little newborn's tush soft! If you've never heard of Baby Kangas cloth diapers then I'm happy to tell you about them. They actually come with a zipper pouch in the front of the diaper where you stuff the insert into. Very new and cool idea to keep the insert clean and in place. Plus, once soiled, just unzip and shake into your pail to remove it!

--------------------------------------

For the grand prize package #2, what I've dubbed the Stash Builder package we have the following amazing sponsors!

Fluffy Rumps comes from a mom owned and operated business making her very own soakers and covers! Use FluffyRumps fleece soakers over a prefold or fitted as a cover, or over a PUL diaper for extra protection. They work like wool, but are easier to care for! She with her always free shipping, replace and refund policy you will be guaranteed to be satisfied. FluffyRumps are available in a variety of fun prints, and are made from fleece to provide awesome water resistant qualities in sizes Newborn - XXXL! Fluffy Rumps has donated 2 covers of your choice!

Guess who our next sponsor is, a great WAHM with a funny store name - Cow Patties Cloth. Megan's mission is to provide great cloth diapers that everyone can afford without losing out on quality. Cow Patties was founded in late 2007 when Megan starting sewing her own cloth diapers for her daughter and then began making diapers for friends. What's great about these diapers is that they are customized to your specific liking. There is a list of "In Stock" fabrics to choose from for your outer fabric or you can even ask for a special fabric not listed! Front snapping, side snaps, aplix, or no closure at all - it's all your choice. Check out the "New To Cloth Diapering" page for more info on the sizing, prices and how to customize your diaper!

Sweet Sparrow Designs sells cloth diapers, wipes, and wet bags. You can choose from 9 bright colors for your outer PUL. All diapers are made with test ZORB insert which is extremely thirsty! Side snaps or front snaps, whatever you like you can have with these diapers. They look super cute and I'm bummed I didn't get to review one but once I convince the hubby I need more diapers then I really want to try these out! Sweet Sparrow Designs has donated 1 diaper, 1 wetbag and 1 set of reusable wipes!

Fluffy Bottom Babies is a Canadian store specializing in cloth diapers and accessories as well as natural detergents. They offer a large selection of time-tested brands of cloth diapers, so you can get all your cloth diaper shopping done in one place. No matter which cloth diaper system you choose, you can be certain that Fluffy Bottom Babies will be there to support you every step of the way.

And again, last but certainly not least we have Pooters diapers donating to the grand prize stash package! Determined to live a more 'greener' lifestyle, a SAHM of 2 boys decided to stay cloth diapering. Once she began her journey she discovered that not only was cloth better for the environment but of course better on your baby's skin and your wallet.

Sponsor Spotlight - Graco

the next sponsor is one that is very well known and trusted in familes for year now, and I'm so excited to welcome them to the Bye Bye 'Sposies event.

Graco makes products with little ones in mind but also that are family friendly and that definitely make our lives easier. I'm sure something in your house is made by Graco, right? I know that we have a few things including our car seat and stroller combo.

Graco has offered a gorgeous little diaper bag for one DDM & Mama B reader because how else do you travel with all those cute cloth diapers?

I think the Quilted tall duffle bag is just right for any trip you need to make. It features a top zippered opening into a large main compartment. The interior has 2 compartments to keep you organized plus is with it's large capacity it's perfect for all your fluff and wetbag. 

I love the side outside pockets for bottle storage or maybe a sippy cup for the toddler. It includes a soft padded changing bag and also has padded shoulder straps for for comfortable carrying.

Since Kendall loves her binkies, I know I would be using the two front zipper pockets for storing extra binkies, as she tends to lose them quite often, and other miscellanious things like medicines. The bottom zipper pocket is larger so since we use packet food (IE: Ella's Kitchen & Plum Organics) rather then plastic containers (think Gerber) would fit perfectly along with her spoons.

This diaper bag is also affordable at just $30 at Wal-Mart or other select online stores for purchase.

Oh Katy review and giveaway

Our next sponsor all started by a stay-at-home mom sewing her own diapers in her living room for her two babies in diapers. After selling said diapers to friends and family she started a company in 2010. Tuning 1 year old this past January Katie, the creator of KatyDid diapers made a company name change, added colors to their 4 diaper line up and inproved their diapers. They have settled into what you now know as Oh Katy. If you don't know what Oh Katy diapers are all about then I'm so excited to be telling you about them!

Oh Katy makes one size pocket diapers that come in 9 bright colors - perfect for anytime but especially now that it's spring and summer! Their mission is to convince the skeptics and the naysayers that reusable diapers are easy, fashionable and fun.

I was sent the Berry (pink) diaper to review and then shortly afterward I was lucky enough to be randomly selected on the Oh Katy Facebook page as a winner as well. Now having 2 diapers, I cannot wash these bad boys quick enough!

One of the things I first read about my Oh Katy diaper was the yes, it has a waterproof cover but it's not made with PUL, it's covered with TPU. So after some research I can tell you that TPU stands for Thermoplastic Polyurethane. TPU is a different form of lamination. TPU is simply the film part of PUL, it's not a type of PUL. To make PUL a TPU film is laminated to a fabric substrate, typically a polyester interlock. This method is not only functionally better, but eliminates MUCH of the harmful chemicals found in PUL. This method also means it will biodegrade more quickly if it does end up in a landfill someday! So what does this mean for Oh Katy diapers? Well it means it will remain flexible, stretchy, and crunch-free so you will always get a trim fit. Plus, using TPU makes for a softer diaper!

But enough of that, I just want to tell you why I love these diapers.
The leg gussets are extremely soft and gentle. They never leave marks on Kendall's chunky thighs. To get the perfect fit there are two snaps down the front so you can snap for a Small or Medium fit, for a Large just leave it unsnapped.
The inside is a micro-fleece inner layer that is super soft and wick the moisture away from baby's booty. When you pair that with their unique patented front-opening pocket design you will have a insert that stays in place plus a very dry baby.

If you have a newborn or a smaller baby you will love their newborn hip snaps. These snaps help "wing droop" and give you a snug fit.
I think idea is so cleaver and when (if) I have another baby I'll definitely be using these diapers on him/her.

Each diaper comes with two inserts; 1 large adjustable insert that comes with 2 rows of snaps and 1 newborn insert that can also be used as a doubler for those heavy wetters like Kendall. One thing I must mention is how I love how the inserts are labeled because this mama has to have her Kendall's inserts going into the correct diaper.

It sounds so silly but one of my favorite features is one that I can barely find. These diapers have a unique wrap-and-snap feature that allows you to wrap up your diaper and snap it shut, similar to a disposable diaper. You can store your soiled diapers when you're out without the need of a waterproof bag!
Like I said, I know it sounds crazy but it's one of my favorite features.

I highly, highly recommend Oh Katy cloth diapers and so does Kendall's booty! We love these diapers for how soft they are in all areas, including the elastic area around the legs and waist.

I'm so happy to tell you that you can win one of these diapers to try for the first time or add to your growing Oh Katy collection!

Bitty Bottoms review & giveaway

Our next sponsor not only has a cute name but I am loving their logo. You can find them easily by clicking the logo on my left sidebar also.

Bitty Bottoms is a mom owned business (love it) that was started because of her own stinky experience with disposable diapers. Wanting to change and to save money, her family made the switch!

Now carring more then just cloth diapers, Bitty Bottoms has things for sleep, bath, feeding, leggings and so much more!

When it comes to cloth they carry many types of diapers including newborn and preemie!

You can use their Cloth Diaper Academy pages to find out everything you want to know about cloth and the vocabulary behind it all. Using cloth can be really confusing in the beginning but pages like these help break it all down and break the stress you may be feeling.

Bitty Bottoms has this link called "Break The Mold" curious and clicked and this is what I found. Watch it :)

Bitty Bottoms also features a cloth diaper trail program. For just about .58 cents a day you can try out a variety of brand new cloth for 17 days. Like them? Then keep them! If you don't, just return them, no questions asked, even if they are stained!! You will receive 7 diapers, Rockin' Green laundry detergent and flushable diaper liners!
I've said it before and I'll say it again, I wish I knew about ptrograms like this when I first started to use cloth. It's so helpful to find the perfect diaper for your family without spending a ton of money on things you later find out are just not for you. Everyone using cloth differently and it's best to find out first before you have many diapers you just do not use.

So now you might be asking, "If I get new diapers what happens to the ones I return to them?", right? Well Bitty Bottoms turns around and resales them for a discounted price in their SALE section. Of course they are completely washed and ready to go and only the best will be resold.
Bitty Bottoms has offered one DDM winner a 3 pack of their most popular diapers - Happy Heiny, FuzziBunz and Rump-a-Rooz.

I was given the chance to review a Happy Heiny for the first time and the first thing I read was that it can also be used as a swim diaper (without an insert)! It just so happened that we were going to let the girls swim that day so I said, 'hell, let's try it out!'

Our pink hibiscus held up wonderfuly in the pool and event stopped poo (yes, she pooed while in the pool) from escaping. I was a little nervious once I saw her face and knew what she was doing but it actually contained it, even without an insert inside.
After prepping a few times we've used this and it has held up and is making its way to my top 5 favorite diapers.
Our Happy Heiny is so luxuriously soft, plus it is made from custom-milled fleece which means no dioxins, thus reducing rashes.

Pictured is the aplix version of course but I always opt for snaps on my Kendall's diapers. The snaps on the HH is extremely durable and when we first received it I thought I'd rip the snaps off since it was kinda for me to undo them.
There are 2 rows of snaps across the top and 3 rows down the front for your one size adjusting. My number one love about this diaper (and that I wish were on more diapers) is the overlapping snaps on the waist area. I don't know the technical name, hence the picture below, so I call it overlapping snaps, lol. Don't judge me! haha. I love when there are extra snaps on one side so you can overlap the other. This is sometimes very useful for a smaller baby and especially helpful on one size diapers.

Do you see what I mean?? lol. Overlapping snaps! Anyway, all in all, yes I'd have to say we are loving Happy Heiny and of course I love FuzziBunz.

I have yet to try a rump-a-rooz so whoever wins this must tell me how they like them so I can get some!

1 Winner will receive 3 diapers!

(your choice colors for all 3)

Sponsor Spotlight - Pure Modern Baby

Cloth diapering is suppose to be a lot of things and for me, one of them is being fun. Our next sponsor thinks the exact same way and they wants to get the word out that cloth diapering is hip, fun and easy! Yes, EASY!

Cloth diapers have evolved beyond recognition – They are fresh, modern, and are just about as simple as disposables. Most people understand the benefits of cloth diapering (good for your baby, good for the earth, and great for your bank account!) but aren’t sure they can actually do it. Pure Modern Baby is on a mission to prove just how simple it is and help people take the leap.

They are a local business founded on the idea that being eco-conscious can be easy and hip at the same time. They offer some of the best cloth diapers on the market, and are committed to providing education and support along the way. They also carry baby wearing products and organic baby basics (onesies, sleepers, bibs, etc).

To help with all your burning questions Pure Modern Baby has made an All About Cloth page. It's very useful if you still aren't sure what kind of diapers are on the market and where you should start (or continue) this amazing journey.

You can also shop with confidence because PMB offers price matching! How awesome is that?! So not only is this a one stop shop because of the merchandise they carry but they make sure of it since you will be getting the lowest price you can find.

If you're not convinced of how amazing PMB is there's one more thing; they offer a cloth diaper trial package! They also keep it simple - Love it, keep it, if you don't want them just return them! I love that they offer a variety of cloth diaper trials so you can try brand new cloth diapers with absolutely no commitment to keep any or all of them. I think this is a great idea and the fact that they price their trail packages at $1 per day for 30 days is amazing! So are you just starting to cloth diaper or you want to try a new brand but aren't too sure? The packages Pure Modern Baby offers is definitely for you.

1 Winner will receive 2 AppleCheeks Mini Test Kits!!

(Includes 1 cover + 3 one size bamboo inserts! Size 1 or 2, in your choice colors)
