Bamboo on the bum = Bumboo! GIVEAWAY (2 winners!)

Daniel has been trying out another cloth diaper over the past few weeks and he really likes this one! I do too! :) I think the Bumboo diaper's unique shape is great for customizing the absorption to where you need it most – in front for a boy, or more in the middle for a girl. The diaper has a long front piece that you can fold to suit the size and gender of your baby.

The Bumboo diaper is made from 100% bamboo from viscose fibers woven onto a bed of real silk. This results in a very soft and fluffy fabric, similar to terry towelling. Earth Mom and Baby takes great care that their products are made in a way that is environmentally friendly and socially conscious. Read more about their philosophy here.

The Bumboo diaper has 4 rows of snaps at waist for adjusting the rise and many waist positions to assure a good comfortable fit. The elastic at the waist and leg holes is very stretchy, so nothing “escapes!” We've noticed that the Bumboo diaper is very trim. It does require the use of a cover, and this extra step has been a bit tricky sometimes when Daniel is in an especially wiggly mood - he's been fighting diaper changes lately! The diaper comes with an insert for overnight use – but we have not needed the insert in the day time. The insert does fit well into other diapers – we used it as a pocket stuffer or as a lay-in insert – and it can be purchased separately.

Bumboo diapers are:
  • privately tested and proven to maintain their antibacterial properties;
  • 100% biodegradeable, and compostable after their useful life;
  • 4x more absorbent than cotton diapers, and with superior wicking capabilities'
  • available in 2 sizes;
  • very reasonably priced, and sold individually or in 6 or 12-packs (with an even better price!)
One thing I have noticed is that solid waste “sticks” a little to the fabric of the Bumboo diaper, but with a little extra rinsing, this is not an issue. Now that the sun is shining a little more, I can start drying stuff on the line (Spring is almost here!) - the sun is great for helping with stain removal and doesn't affect the diaper's antibacterial properties. Plus, I so like the idea of using all natural fibers - I really like the Bumboo!

I've had great contact with Earth Mom and Baby – their customer service is great! Katherine has been very helpful, offering great tips and always friendly! Thanks! Look around their website at their other great products!

I like that they are 100% biodegradeable, and compostable after their useful life. Polyester is NOT biodegradeable, and will last in a landfill just as long as a disposable diaper!

I like the wicking properties. Softness is all fine and dandy but without wicking, it's still wet material by the skin.

Would love to try these!

I love that they are antibacterial and biodegradable but it's also wonderful that they're adjustable to fit babies of all shapes comfortably and without adding bulk!

What's not to love about bamboo?! But then you add to that the silk AND that when I'm done with it, I could throw it in my compost pile and never worry about it again. That's pretty awesome!
