What is a fitted cloth diaper?
Fitteds are an absorbency that is sewn into a contoured shape that mimics the shape of a diaper. They have form-fitting elastic sewn in around the legs and at the back, for a snug fit. Fitteds wrap around your baby with no folding necessary which makes this an easy diaper to use. Geffen fitteds are made from an organic premium cotton.
Fitteds with Snaps
Fitteds can have a snap closure on the outside to secure it around your baby. This can make diaper changes quick and easy.
Snapless Fitteds
Fitteds can have no closure on the outside of the diaper and we call that a "snapless fitted". Since there is no closure, we recommend using a snappi or pins to secure the fitted around your baby.
Absorbent
Fitteds are made from several layers of absorbent material that are sewn together. All of our fitteds at Geffen Baby are made with 100% cotton. Fitteds are just the absorbency of the diaper so you will need a cover to go over it to make it water resistant.
Sizing
Fitteds can come in a "one size" or a sized variation. The fitteds at Geffen come in these sizes:
XS Preemie - 10lbs
Small 9-15lbs
Medium 15-24lbs
Large 21-30lbs
Don't Forget a Cover!
A fitted cloth diaper is solely made of absorbent fabric which means there's no waterproofing/water-resistant material included. In order to make this a complete diapering system you'll need a diaper cover to go over it.
Why Consider Fitted Diapers?
Fitteds are absorbent and easy to fasten around your baby. Fitteds are a great solution for heavy wetters and can be used as a nighttime diaper. However, fitteds can sometimes be bulky depending on the age of your baby, the brand, and how many boosters or inserts you add to it. Fitted diapers are a great diaper to consider if you're wanting to use natural fibers
