Product Description
Swaddlebees Cotton Prefolds are as basic as you can get with cloth diapering. It's a staple for most moms that use cloth diapers. Regardless of the system you have, you will always need prefolds at least during the newborn stage, or even just for back up. Made with 4x8x4 layers of 100% unbleached cotton twill that gets softer and more absorbent the longer it is used. Sold in 6-piece packs. NEWBORN size measures 12x13" and is good for babies 5-10 lbs.

By P. G. Reynolds
I have been using these for about a month now. As another reviewer stated, they have some minor pilling from the wash but it does seem to be diminishing with each wash. I'm not worried about it though. They quilted up nicely after about 3-5 washes and are very soft. We used a different kind of prefold prior to these and they feel rough compared to the swaddlebees! I purchased the large for my 9 month old who is about 14.5 pounds. After washing, they are still about 3 inches too long so I just fold it down in the back before I fold them and snappi them to her. I had purchased the mediums for her and they fit absolutely perfectly on her but I didn't want to have to buy more when she outgrew them (which I guessed would have been within a few months). So I sold the mediums to a friend and then purchased the large instead. With the extra inches, we should now be able to make it all the way to potty training with these. I would definitely recommend these to any prefold fan, or for anyone looking into cloth diapering (NOTE: for those new to cloth diapering, they do shrink after washing but they are designed for that so don't rely on the measurements, instead look at the suggested weight ranges). They are very easy to use and they wash up pretty easily. The unbleached color is great because if you do happen to get any stains, they wont show as much. I purchased three packs (18 total) but really I probably only needed about 14 diapers (wish they came in 7 packs!) so I probably could have gotten by with only 2 packs of 6. Oh well. All in all, a great product and would buy again. And you can't beat Amazon's price - about $4 cheaper per pack than most places!

By Meagan R.H.
I just started using cloth diapers for my ten month old baby. I normally have her in Seventh Generation brand disposables and am on auto shipment through Amazon. I get 4 packs per month, and i seem to run out before the next shipment so i decided to use cloth for in between.I purchased the Swaddlebees because I thought the price was great compared to other brands and the reviews were pretty good too.When i received them (in good time) i read the instructions which were short and to the point. You can either boil or wash 5 times in the washer, i boiled for about an hour. Used them the next day and they did their job. The instructions sheet also comes with directions for folding your cloths diapers. VERY helpful. I would definately recommend these diapers. ;)

By K. Dehmlow
I have had these diapers for about a month, and so far they work very well. They absorb very well, and don't stain as easily as other diapers I own (probably because of their color due to being unbleached). However, they have started to pill already. This may be because my husband has dried them on high a few times. Most people recommend line-drying or drying on low.My daughter was 8 months old when I bought these, so I purchased the Large size diapers (15-35 lbs). They are huge on her! We just fold them twice hamburger style and they work fine, especially for overnights. When you are choosing what size to get, I would consider the maximum weight suggestion rather than the minimum like I did.I have 2 dozen diapers and launder them every three days. I plan to add another dozen to the basket.
