Sadly, I didn’t really pay attention when she [...]

My verdict: (+) Easy to put on, adjust and remove (+) Better fitting (-) If not fastened securely, diaper may fall out while carrying baby (-) Baby can easily remove by pulling (-) Velcro’s hard corners would leave red marks/blisters when pressed continuously against baby’s delicate skin — especially the inside tabs My verdict: (+) [...]

In: Baby Natey|My Reviews
