The Goodies I Won from Babykicks!

If you read this blog, you know that I recently won an astounding $250 worth of products of my choice from Babykicks.  I posted what I got, but here are pictures of it after it arrived.  It was really astonishing how much it was when I looked at it all together.

Here is a shot of everything.  All the inserts, pocket diapers, fitted diapers, prefolds, and washies/wipes.  Plus, they sent this card with congratulations on it.  (And yes, that's my fantastic Miche Bag from Stephanie that the card is leaning against.  Plus some Static Guard and the diaper bag, hehe!).

This picture shows the pocket diapers (sorry the color is a little off--they're actually a very pure white. For some reason, the camera wasn't flashing).  The pocket diapers open up as shown, and I discovered that these suckers will snap down to a pretty small size, so I'm thinking I'll be able to use them on a brand new baby someday.  That was sort of my thinking when I chose my products.  I really have enough diapers (more than enough!) for Karina, but I want another baby, and I do not want to use any disposables at all.  We used them on Karina at first, because I simply didn't know what else to do (umbilical cord stump issue).

Here are the fitteds.  They're really similar in style to the pockets, but they're made of hemp terry (feels just like terry cloth) and I don't think they snap down quite as small as the pockets.  I got four pockets and four fitteds.

The inserts.  I ordered some anyway, but I didn't realize that both the fitteds and the pockets came with them!  That is great for us, because we love using them overnight.  Now I can double them up if I need to at night as she continues to grow.

This is the stack of wipes.  They're round and I got to choose the thread color for the edges.  I of course picked pink.  They're really soft and I love using them to dry her little tushy off when she's wet.  I don't use wet wipes on her unless she's dirty, but I don't want to just leave the urine on her body, so I love that I can use these really soft wipes to dry her off.  She likes them, too.  She laughs when I dry her off!

This is one of the three washies I got.  Similar to the wipes, but a rectangle with a pocket for a hand (as shown) to go in, so it's great to use in the tub.  I have not used them yet, but they're just as soft as the wipes.

Prefold.  I got three prefolds, and I thought I would be able to substitute the cotton prefold plus hemp liner for one of these, but apparently not.  Maybe I haven't washed them enough, but they weren't absorbent enough to handle her overnight, um, output.  I did get a smaller size (I can't remember what size exactly, but I know it was a smaller end size), so that could also be contributing.  Again, very very soft.  I originally got them planning to use them for a newborn someday.

And finally, here is the card they included.  I just want to say thanks to them again.  By the way, in case anybody's wondering, they didn't pay me to say any of this stuff here in this blog post or on any other.  I just randomly won some stuff and it happens that I really like all the stuff I got when I won.  I find the products to be really well made and I'm so happy with them!

Thanks, Babykicks!
