I was sent a newborn Grovia all in one (AIO) diaper in bicycles print to try on my little one!
This is what I received:
The newborn Grovia AIO is an all in one diaper (no pocket for stuffing), the soaker is simply sewn into the inside of the diaper:
It is a newborn diaper, so it was made specifically to fit babies from 5-12 lbs!
Here is a little more information on this diaper (taken from Up On the Hill's website):
"•Inner: Sewn in Soaker Pad 55% Hemp, 45% Cotton topped with 100% Polyester Microfleece
•Body Lining: 100% Polyester Microfleece
•Outer: 100% Water Resistant Polyester TPU
• No Cover Needed
• Made fairly & conscientiously in China
•Our unique design fits most newborns 5-12+ lbs.
• Diaper Preparation (This is an important step... don't skip it!!) Wash hot with detergent and tumble dry, repeating this process 5–6 times before first use (they will continue to gain absorbency with more washing) Washing Remove as much solid matter as possible. Place soiled diaper in a dry diaper pail. No soaking necessary. Wash every 2 days on warm with detergent. Tumble dry low. Do NOT use bleach, enzyme cleaners or fabric softeners."
I had heard of mixed reviews when it came to this diaper. Many mama's stated that they leaked! I have had no issues with this diaper (leaking or fit)! I think the reason other's were stating they were experiencing leaks was possibly because the user did not fully prep this diaper before use! The soaker pad is made of hemp, which is a natural fiber (very absorbent) and requires 'prepping' before use! This diaper needs to be washed on hot and tumble dried (med heat) 5-6 times before it reaches its full absorbency!!
If you only wash and dry it once before use, it will probably leak!!
This is the diaper on it's smallest setting:
This is a great fitting diaper. When my daughter was born, she only weighed 6.8 lbs (smallest of all 3 of my babies)!
As you can see, this diaper is perfect for a long and lean little one! This print is very gender neutral as well. Since we waited until birth to find out the gender of our baby, most of the items I received for review were GN in color! I love the bicycles print though, it's very cute. Especially for an active family like ours!
