Can the large size be used alone in a pocket diaper? Is the absorbency quick enough?

I have never used it alone. I have used it with a Bum Genius microfiber newborn insert in my 4.0. It fits in the pocket just fine alone

My child urinates in large volumes and one insert didn't work. I have to use two. The outer cotton layer does absorb quickly which is helpful.

I haven't used them yet as my son is a bit too small still. I did fold a prefold and stuff it in the pocket part of the diaper to see it it would fit (it did), and by my research they should work if you want to use them instead of the microfiber liners.

works for cloth diapers with a planet wise pail liner. there is a spot for the liner to hang inside the pail. the pail gets full after about 15 pocket diapers(i use bumgenius 4.0's). but its no problem i usually keep my cloth diaper loads to about 12-15 diapers anyways.

I don't see why not, but usually, if a disposable diaper isn't doing the job, you may just need the next size up in diapers. That's how I know my babe needs a larger size. Or the brand isnt that great. I use huggies, personally they're the best :) Blow outs are inevitable, I ALWAYS bring extra clothes in the diaper bag.

It depends on the type of diaper. But for a pocket diaper, yes you will need the diaper, inserts and a liner. I would like to suggest a fleece liner instead of these disposables-I never even used mine. They aren't that great in my opinion.

It depends on how many diapers and such. I put about 4 size 1s right now and a package of 46 wipes and it fts but it's bulky. You could probably fit a tube of ointment in it but I don't just because it would make it even bulkier. Yet if you had less wipes it probably wouldn't be so bad. Overall you can fit quite a bit in it but it depends on your preference of how big you want it to be. I love mine! And if an accident happens on it, it's so easy to clean off. My baby fits on it well too with room to spare as she grows (she is just over 11lbs and 2.5 months old).

If I were a mother again, I would have no problem buying this product for washing diapers. It has a limited capacity, but it keeps the diapers out of the regular household laundry. For busy people it may be impractical beyond infant and early toddler size diapers. But that depends on how much you mind doing several loads a week. I wouldn't mind at all. Cloth diapers are the healthiest. Babies do NOT need all the ridiculous chemicals in disposables. I say that with a little authority. I used to work in a research and development department of a baby diaper manufacturing company. Trust me. Cloth diapers are healthier than disposables. I would never let a disposable touch my baby if I didn't have to. As for the egg, you could probably get a dozen and a half newborn diapers in it. Probably eight to twelve toddler diapers. I don't think it is such a pain to hook up to a faucet that is in a second bathroom or a utility room. Otherwise it would be kind of a pain n a kitchen or only bathroom. The full wash is about thirty minutes. Wash and no rise is about fifteen. Just remember to turn the water off before removing the hose from the faucet! I wish my mom had it in the 1950's and 1960's when she had eight children and several in cloth diapers at any given time. I was an oldest daughter and often changed the cloth diapers and rinsed them in the toilet. Then put them in the bleach pail. I would have loved the ego egg. Just take the diapers out of the pail and put them in the egg. Run it and then wring them out. Throw them in the dryer or hang them up. You don't have to mix them in with regular laundry and you can dry them together, fold them and put them away.

I purchased two separate towels (only one comes in a package), and while they were not very large, they absolutely served us well. I now use them to dry my big dog after bathing. They are very absorbent.

I would guess no. A baby diaper that is soaked would still be a lot smaller than an adult item.

This is an all-in-one diaper, so the 'insert' or absorbancy is already sewn in. No need to buy anything else!

Once prepped, this diaper is very absorbent! So I think it would be just fine to go cover less during the day.

I just ordered some and am new to cloth diapering... But yes, you must wash the cover and insert when used as a pocket diaper. I plan on ordering Prefolds and bamboo inserts and just putting those on the diaper instead of the insert and using the covers as covers. Hopefully to be able to reuse the cover a few times.

That is what I use them in. Just make sure you bring the g diaper as far up to the top of the leg so they don't leak when baby moves. Also, they are a tad bulky depending on how big your baby is. I had to wait til my baby is 16 lbs for the best absorbancy.

Dear Amber, these inserts can be put in and out of the pocket diaper, washed separately.

I think the only problem with this would be the fact that pee/poop could get out of the diaper, since it wouldn't cover the whole surface and be contained like a bag. I think it could work for most of the time, but I can see there could be times in which this wouldn't work and these are never fun. At the end of the day, I am not sure that each bag is that much more expensive than a diaper, so I personally wouldn't take the chance.

I loved this insert for my daughter! I purchased it when she was a few weeks and she's 6 months old now and we still use it. It is really absorbent, I use it in a pocket diaper and also with a cover in a pinch.

Yes! That's what we use ours for. And side note --I just discovered disposable swim diapers are washable (pee only)!! You just throw them in the washer and let them air dry-they are good for 3 washes. :)
