The Spendthrift's Progress

Cover to cover

I'm not going to do an inventory count for diaper covers, because I honestly have no idea what all I have. I am, however, going to do some quick reviews.

Diaper covers I have known

• LiteWraps: your basic PUL cover. It has gussets, which are nice, and snaps as well as velcro. Runs large, so you'll get a lot of use out of the cover.
• Cot'nWraps: style is almost identical to their sister wrap, the LiteWrap, but doesn't run as large. A good choice for hot summer days, but the cotton inside gets damp easily, so I hate using it more than once. Too delicate for regular use.
• Bummis Super Snap: I adore these covers. They run a touch big, adjust well, and hold everything in. Plus they feel nice to the touch, and don't leave marks on the girl.
• Diaperaps: functional, but not my favorites.
• Kushies wraps: see above. These are good for hard-to-fit diapers, however.
  
• Polar Babies original wrap: this is a nice cover, but it runs really, really, really small. Small like, I started my girl on size C (18-22lbs) when she was 13lbs and it was a little snug even then small.
  
• Nikki wool wraps: I think fleece and wool covers just run tiny. I have two of these in medium. They're a wonderful cover, but not at all true to size.
  
• Biobottoms wool wraps: similar to the Nikki, but truer to size. I think I prefer the softer wool and nicer leg design of the Nikki, but the Biobottoms fit better.
