***BABY BLESSINGS-Abby's Lane-Rumparooz Review & GIVEAWAY***

ABOUT ABBY'S LANE:

Abby's Lane is a wonderful online store that carries everything from cloth diapers, to baby carriers, shopping cart covers, baby leg's, baby shoes, and much much more.  They offer a wide variety of items to meet whatever need you have.  A HUGE benefit to ordering from Abby's Lane is their FREE shipping to US addresses! I LOVE it when companies offer free shipping to their store! At least from my experience, people tend to shop their more than other stores that are going to charge you $9 for shipping a $10 item.

Abby's Lane also guarantee's 100% customer satisfaction on all orders. When talking back and fourth, Stephanie (the shop owner) always responded to all of my e-mails quickly and was very professional in everything that she did.  Working with her was great and I would definitely suggest Abby's Lane to anyone looking for baby items.

OUR REVIEW:

Stephanie at Abby's Lane was awesome enough to send us a Rumparooz G2 One Size Pocket Diaper in Whale Tale print for review!! I am in LOVE with this diaper!  Rumparooz are on the top of my list for all time favorite diapers! They have the cutest prints ever!! (Have you seen their new Robotronics print?!? I want one so bad!!)   From the minute that I received this diaper, even before we used it, I could tell that it was awesome quality. The double gussets hold in messes like none other and the fit is perfect on Monkey. I can't wait to try them out on our new little one in a few weeks! (Eeeekkk....I can't believe that I am saying a few weeks....time flies!)

The PUL on Rumparooz diapers is the nicest that I have ever felt on a cloth diaper. It is tougher feeling than many other brands that we have tried and holds up very well over time!  The Rumparooz snaps/Velcro are also tougher than other brands and the hypo-allergenic, no-pill, micro-chamois inner material is nicer quality.

Pocket Opening: 

Pocket opening is in the back of the diaper for stuffing inserts into. It is plenty large enough to be able to get your hand in there to stuff the inserts into the diaper.  I love how it also has a flap of fabric that folds over the inserts on the back of the diaper to help them stay in place and also to help catch messes in the back of the diaper!

Inserts:

Included inserts are:

1 Full Size Insert
1 Newborn/Booster...will snap onto the full size insert
The inserts are made from 5 layers of microfiber and are one of the most absorbent microfiber inserts available on the market.  They are very adjustable and absorbent. You can easily customize them to fit a newborn.....but then change them to fit a toddler within seconds.

Rise: 

The rise is very adjustable. They have 4 snap heights to make them smaller/larger. I have heard some people say that they have too low of a rise in the back of the diaper, but they fit Monkey just fine and we haven't had any plumbers crack issues.

Sizing:

Rumparooz diapers are 4 sizes in ONE diaper compared to many other OS diapers that are three sizes in one. They are made to actually get small enough to  fit a newborn baby. They are everything you will need to cloth diaper from birth (6.5 lbs) to potty training (35+ lbs).

Snaps or Velcro:  

You can get all of their diapers in snaps and Velcro closure. My favorite are the ones with snaps just because they seem to hold up longer, but the Velcro ones that we own have held up great too.  The snaps and Velcro are high quality and meant too last.....they are also toddler proof (so far.) I haven't had any trouble with Monkey being able to take them off by himself.

Colors:

Price: 

These diaper do run a bit on the pricey side of things, but I do think that you get what you pay for. They are amazing quality and will last a LONG time! They run for $23.50 each for the solid colors and $25.50 each for the prints.

Features:

Rumparooz G2 One Size Diapers can contain the messiest of diapers with their patent pending built-in double gusset.....A.K.A. "the poop scoop". The scooped-out contoured shape of the inner, double-gusset area channels each leg, creating a sort of "pocket" to hold messes in place and protect from baby blow-outs. You won't find this feature in any other cloth diaper on the market! I am in love with their double gusset!! And believe me, Monkey has put this diaper through....well....a lot!!  We have never had a leak (or blow-out) with with this diaper. All "messes" have always stayed inside the first gusset perfectly and have never made it anywhere close to the outer gusset.
