3Monkeys OS Pocket Diaper Review

     Since I'm new to the whole cloth diapering game, I've been trying to get my hands on as many different types of cloth diapers as I can. I recently ordered a diaper from 3Monkeys (Etsy shop here,) and couldn't wait to receive it!
     When the post came, I literally ran to the mailbox and ran back to my house, holding the package over my head like an Olympic torch.

This is what was inside the package: 5 cloth wipes, two business cards, a care card, and the gorgeous diaper itself (with a bamboo fleece insert inside that I'll get to in a minute.)

Close up of the cloth wipes.

I was SUPER impressed with the amount of detail that went into this diaper. The alternating KAM snaps that went in order of the rainbow (R.O.Y.G.B.I.V. ;) made me smile.

Look at how beautiful the snaps are!

Back label

The interior layer of the diaper is made of a pretty sea foam green micro fleece, and is very soft. What I like about this diaper is that the pocket is a modified welt-style, but it's in the front as opposed to the back. I'd think that would come in handy for those breastmilk blowouts that defy physics and go up the back, so you don't have to stick your hand in yuck to unstuff the diaper. I also like that there's a flap to cover the pocket. 

Care tags inside the pocket flap.

An extra layer of PUL that acts as reinforcement for the snaps.

 Now, on to the insert: I REALLY like this insert. It's one, continuous loop of bamboo fleece that has been serged around the edges in multiple colors, keeping with the rainbow theme of the diaper. What's really cool about this insert is that it's multifunctional- 

Flaps of the insert

You can fold the flaps in the front for extra layers of protection for boys OR

fold the flaps in the middle for extra protection for girls.

     Since my youngest is 4, I don't have a real baby to try the diaper on, so I substituted a doll. Just pretend, ok? 

The tabs offered a lot of stretch and it was really easy to adjust to all of the different sizes. It's a pretty trim fit compared to some of the other diapers I've seen. Overall, I really love this diaper! I can't wait to have our last baby so I can put this adorable diaper on him or her! I'll definitely be ordering more diapers from 3Monkeys!
