I finally won a couple of auctions on Ebay for a total of a dozen used Fuzzi Bunz. They arrived late last week and I promptly washed them. On Sunday I tried out the first one, only to be bitterly disappointed when within an hour Gavin's clothes were soaked. Yesterday I tried three more, each time with the same result. Today, another one with the same result again. How maddening! The Fuzzis I have that I bought new do not do this. I am more than a little upset at the $100 I spent on these. I am going to poke around on the internet and see if this is common and if there is an easy solution to the leakage problem that doesn't involve pitching the lot into the dumpster outside. I'm (pessimistically) assuming there is no such solution and am resigning myself to ordering another dozen prefolds and just going with that diapering system completely. Though there are other options that aren't quite as expensive as the Fuzzis.. fitteds and contours and the like. Part of me is even tempted to try and make some diapers, too. How hard can it be, really? I have the Fuzzis as a model, surely I can make a close approximation for a lot less money! I'm just not sure how much more money I can reasonably spend trying out different types of diapers!
In other news, as I am typing this Jason is in the bedroom playing with Gavin. Gavin just let out a huge happy squeal. Apparently he reached out and knocked over the stuffed giraffe and found that to be a most entertaining activity. How cute, his first squeal!
