"Birthday Blessings Bash" Thirsties Duo Diaper in SNAPS review and #GIVEAWAY {US and Canada}


I love Thirsties! I've done a few reviews on Thirsties before here on the blog! You can read those reviews here, here and here! When I read that Thirsties recently came out with their Duo diaper in snaps... I really wanted to try one! Jessica from Thirsties was kind enough to sponsor this event and she sent me a size 2 "mud" colored duo diaper in snaps!
This is what I received:

Here are a few more details about this fabulous diaper (taken from Thirsties' website):
Thirsties Duo Diapers are easy to use and even easier on your wallet! The adjustable rise of this diaper design means one size will last twice as long. In fact, you'll only need two sizes to cover your baby from birth all the way to potty-learning. Period!

Similar in feel and fit as our best selling Duo Wrap, Thirsties Duo Diapers are completely waterproof yet remain breathable, pliable, and very comfortable for your baby's delicate skin. The ultra-soft microfleece liner on the inside protects baby's skin from wetness and also resists staining. Our handy sleeve design features openings on both sides of the diaper between the microfleece and waterproof layer. The duo openings featured in Thirsties Duo Diaper enable easy insert stuffing from either side of the diaper and also make for easy cleaning. There is no need to remove the soiled inserts when washing-your hands will remain clean! Simply toss your soiled Thirsties Duo Diaper in the laundry and the inserts will agitate free from the diaper in the washing machine.
Our Duo Inserts provide double the duty as well! Thirsties' specialty inserts feature two layers of serged microfiber terry snapped together with five serged layers of hemp jersey; seven thirsty layers in all! Microfiber terry is a fast absorber designed to rest closest to your baby's skin (beneath the microfleece sleeve); hemp is a stable absorber and pairs perfectly behind the microfiber terry to add more absorbency and to prevent compression leaking.

By the way...did you know that Thirsties' new hemp jersey is like no other on the market!?! We (finally) found a knitter right here in the USA to custom knit the hemp textile to our specifications. You will find this hemp is thicker, softer, and holds-up better than any other on the market.

Plus, Thirsties Duo Diapers are a cinch to use...even for the occasional caretaker. Simply stuff the insert in the sleeve of the diaper and wrap around your baby. The durable hook-and-loop closures of Thirsties Duo Diaper provide a perfect and secure fit at every diaper change. Thirsties' signature leg gussets provide advanced leak-proof protection and our bindings are super soft against your baby's skin. Both Duo sizes offer convenient fold-over laundry tabs to protect your hook-and-loop closures from trapping lint in the wash.
Each of the two sizes of Thirsties Duo Diaper feature three rows of snaps to adjust the rise to your baby's shape; it really is like having THREE sizes in one. Pairing such adjustability in rise with our signature leg gussets make this diaper the most versatile on the market. Whether your baby is tall or short, thin or chunky, this cover will keep those messes contained!

Let's face it...'one-size' options tend to be too big on the average newborn and too small for most toddlers over two years of age. What this means is that the 'one-size' option truly only fits your baby properly when he/she weighs between 10 lbs to 32 lbs. Alas, our findings confirm that the diaper label 'one-size' simply does not live up to its claim. Most families purchasing a 'one size' diaper would actually end up purchasing a newborn size, a 'one-size', and a toddler size: THREE sizes from birth to potty! Not ONE.

Therefore, in the end, Thirsties Duo Diapers are truly the more reliable and more affordable option when comparing to a 'one-size' system.

Duo Sizing Options:

In an effort to maximize affordability of cloth diapering Thirsties created our Duo line. This means all Duo products are available in 2 sizes which will cover your baby from birth to potty. Each of the two sizes in the Thirsties Duo line feature three rows of snaps to adjust the rise to your baby’s shape; it is like having THREE sizes in one."

These diapers are amazing!
Here are some pics I took so you could get the whole picture (pun intended):
