The diapers have held up great. All Kissaluvs products hold up great though, my kl0's have gone through 3 boys now and have no holes or anything. I can imagine these would do the same.
They have stayed soft and are so trim. Great with a thin cover like Bumkins under some jeans. Just as trim as a disposible.

A decent fitted for my newborn. Does leave some red marks but over all I like it. Probably giving it a four because we are happier with prefolds than any other options.

While these diapers are very cute, the lack in absorbency. My DD soaks completely through them in one pee, we usually go coverless at home and in these she needs an immediate change. I'm much more satisfied with our Happy Heinys fitteds, she can go for 2.5 hours without soaking through them. I really wish these were more absorbent because I bought about 8 of them. With the kissaluvs doubler they work better, I've been contemplating sewing the doublers in permanently.

This is by far my favorite fitted diaper to use for my newborn. She was a little chunky at birth and now at around 10 lbs is a full fledged chunk. The diapers still fit comfortably. I use Thirsties covers now and was able to use Prorap newborn covers with them for several weeks. I really appreciated the snap down portion of the diaper and they never wore against baby's umbilical stump. The diaper itself is very absorbent and with the use of a doubler it will last through the night. I have never had a blow out with this diaper. The only things I don't like about this diaper is that they are very bulky and that the fabric, which starts out so soft, becomes rather rough after about a week or two of wear. None of this will hinder me from purchasing more of these diapers in size 1.

I really like kissaluvs fitted diapers. They're the reason we've gotten a lot more fitted diapers. I especially like the size 0 for the newborn stage. Unfortunately my son outgrew it very quickly at around a month old. They're great at holding in EBF baby poop. We're currently using the size 1 at night. I got those as seconds from Kissaluvs. I'm impressed that they work well at night. We do add a Kissaluv doubler. The only reason I don't have more is that they're a bit expensive.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE these diapers! I have the size 0 (they are considered to be the V1.0). They were the perfect fit for my little girl (she was 7lbs 11oz) from birth. We are still in them (now 12lbs 11 oz) and contains all mess, NEVER a blowout.

These were great newborn diapers. They were low enough to use before the cord fell off, and they did not leak when used with a thirsties cover. A great diaper to use in the beginning before the one-size options really fit. Cute, soft and don't leak at the legs on skinny newborn legs!

I want to love these fitteds, but I just don't.
Absorbency: I didn't have any leaks with these, but the diaper would be completely wer throughout after a tiny newborn pee.
Fit: These left red marks on my daughter's legs and waist, and she is quite thin.
Trimness: UGH. these are bulk central. my daughter looked like a sumo wrestler with these on. i had to STRETCH a 0-3 month onesie in order to snap underneath (on a newborn!). several of my newborn covers would not fully cover this fitted.
ON THE BRIGHT SIDE: my husband and mother MUCH prefer using these to using a prefold. they are more cost-efficient than other newborn fitteds.
that said, considering they will only fit for a month or two, I wouldn't spend the money on these for a newborn again. i'd rather use that money to buy AIOs for later.

These diapers are cute, but that's one of the few good things I can say about them. The fabric gets pilly very quickly, take FOREVER to dry (and I mean 3 cycles in the dryer), and retain odors more than my other diapers. But, they fit well, and my baby must have been very comfortable in them because he would poo immediately after I put them on... every time!! (I only have 2 kissaluvs fitted.)
On a side note, there are a bunch of Kissaluvs items I just love.
I love their velour wipes, lotion potion, antibacterial pail liner, and wool cover.

I really liked using the Kissaluvs 0 on my newborn. My only complaint was that she outgrew them really fast. She started out at an average size, but got to the 85th percentile on height pretty fast. Good absorbency and great fit on a 6 pounder.

I loved these as a newborn diaper. I used them with superbrite BM covers, which weren't small enough, but worked. I used CountrySave detergent and did only one hot cycle. I had a few slight stains, but no smell... My DD never had a rash (ex-thrush) and seemed happy in them. No blow-outs either, despite the fact that she is BF and was milk intolerant (poop only every 7 days for a few weeks!!). I also tried g diapers (threw them out), non-chlorince DD, and now phasing into AIO and AI2s...

This is a super cute diaper, that unfortunately does not work for my LO. It was the second CD I tried on her, and even as a 3 day old, she soaked through it with one pee. It is very trim and squishy and I have found some use using it with a pf snappid underneath, but that seems to defeat the purpose of a fitted.

The size 0 is the perfect newborn diaper and totally worth the money. Easy to use, contains all messes, gentle on the umbilical cord. I got the second quality and couldn't find anything wrong with them. One thing about it, I think it's worth paying extra for the colors, because it's a lot easier to tell which side is which so you don't put them on inside out when you're nervous and in a hurry.

I have been using the v2.0 diaper for some time now. They are sooo absorbent, super soft and I love the snaps. My 10 month old has figured out how to open Velcro and it is nightmare to get him to keep his fab fitteds on.
I love, love these! Wish i had discovered this with my first born.

I recently purchased 2 of these in size 2 (the new V2.0). I got these for use as overnight diapers...I use prefolds during the day. I have to say that they are soft and beautiful diapers. Very absorbent too! I also purchased the doublers and use those with them at night. They fit my 30lb guy like a bikini. Not sure that they will last him size wise until 40lbs. He does have super chunky thighs though...so I'm sure that's a factor! Overall, I am happy with them....it will take some getting used to, to snap them on though. As always...I love Nicki's Diapers...I got free shipping for my order!

this diaper definitely contains the poo, but I am disappointed at how quickly the diapers lost their ""soft"" feel, and how stained they have become. Also, one of the snaps already came off- I will be taking advantage of kissaluvs snap guarantee

very well made, great design, great for blowouts! I got the size 0 for my newborn. I liked them at first, but after several washes they lost their softness. The absorbancy was not any better than a good quality prefold (which we were also using). If I had it to do over again, I wouldn't have spent the $$ on these, prefolds work just as well, and dry much faster!

I loved these for my newborn boy. i read reviews of a ton of diapers and went with these with a thirsties cover. He is a super soaker and it was amazing how much these absorbed. I never had a single blowout with them. Even my husband loved them. I am new to cloth diapers and am amazed at how easy these were to clean. I live in an apartment in NYC and had no problem keeping them clean.

I got these as a gift to get through the newborn stage until the one size pocket dipes I have from my first child fit my new one. I absolutely love them. Nothing holds in the breastfed poo like these diapers, I haven't had one blowout yet, and my little man is quite the pooper. Good fit on my little one too. He was 9+ lbs at birth and they fit great then, he's over 12lbs now and the size 0's still fit and he's not even on the last snaps.

i got 5 months of use from the Size 0. my son was born at 7 pounds and even at 16, the diaper still fits him, though the waist snaps are at the last setting.
this was our favorite newborn diaper in the house

I bought these diapers as a newborn diaper because I really liked the idea of the fold down notch for the umbilical cord. I had bought about 10 or so before my baby was born. I was really excited to use them as they looked really soft and fluffy and wonderful. My son was two weeks old when we started using them and I was so disappointed. They did not fit my almost 10lb baby, even though the product says it fits until 15lbs. The waist was way to tight and I could barely do it up on the last snap. The legs were too tight and left red marks. I could not use them at all. I think they would be better suited for smaller babies, although my son is not chubby by any means. Very disappointed as I thought I would really like to use fitteds.

This diapers do a great job at holding in BFP, but I found the Size 0s were not adjustable enough (no overlapping wings & too much space between snaps), both the Size 0s and 1s were too low in the rise (DD outgrew Size 0 at 11 lbs and Size 1 at 18 lbs), and they were not absorbent enough once DD reached 3 months old. They had great resale value though - I sold them and bought Heiny Huggers fitted, which are a very similar material and hold in BFP just as well, if not better, plus they fit better, the weight ranges were accurate for DD, and they are more absorbent and less expensive.

Bought used, but I think they were only pre-washed.
I LOVE these diapers- they fit my petite DD so well. She's used them from day 10 onward and only 2 blow-outs with them and she has a BM 5-6 times a day. I use Kushies Ultra during the day but if I want to be sure she won't leak or at night I use these (they were bulky in the 7-8 lb range). If I could have bought more (got 10), I would have and used them exclusively. My DH likes them better than the AIOs.
Downside- they take FOREVER to dry, and I have a few with some bright stains. I'll try sunning them as the weather gets better.

We've used Kissaluvs Size 0s, 1s, and 2s. They fit our buddha belly, low rise baby better than any other diaper. The Size 0s were absolutely the best diaper at keeping the runny newborn poop contained. We tried prefolds, several other fitteds, and pocket diapers, and my husband refused to use any other diaper... I guess our daughter was fairly explosive, and the Kissaluvs were the only diaper that kept everything in! He hated the leaks we got with other diapers during the newborn stage because we'd have to change her clothing, too.
That said, they definitely lack absorbency for the larger sizes. If we either change our daughter as soon as she's wet, or use a doubler for longer periods, they work great. Using a doubler versus having extra absorbency sewn into the diaper reduces the drying time. I don't think these diapers will fit babies/toddlers with long rises, though. You gotta love the lifetime snap guarantee! I guess, in general, I'd say they're the best newborn diaper, hands down, but you'll have to see whether the larger sizes work for you. Or, try the new organic version, which is more absorbent than the non-organic version!

I had to leave another review on this product after using it for another week after my prior posting. This diaper was aweful. absolutly aweful. I sold all of the contours and fitteds that i had along with the horrendous bummis covers last week with a $70 loss but had to get rid of them. These diapers gave my daughter such a severe rash, none that she ever had using fuzzi bunz. I washed these diapers VERY VERY carefully and according the instructions PERFECTLY but these diapers did not hold up. They leaked like crazy, and held nothing. Nothing. i was utterly amazed at how ineffective this diaper was. After one pee my daughter was soaked.SOAKED!!!! my husband was so mad at me for selling my old style fuzzi bunz for these diapers that as soon as i sold these diapers i bought the one sized fuzzi bunz and those diapers are FANTASTIC! I think cotton babies is a great website and has excellent customer service along with kissaluvs themselves, but i just dont think this diaper holds up at all. I cannot understand how anyone had any success with this diaper. I do however like there washclothes. I would recommend trying one diaper before you buy a whole slew of them like i did, just so if it doesnt work for you, can sell it and not take such a loss. If only i had known!

There is nothing wrong with these, we bought one to rotate with our prefolds and just didnt' really care for it. It was an 'extra' step to get it snapped and then the cover. I felt the same way about the one contour we purchased. The prefolds were easier. This was of course the first thing my LO grew out of, she gained weight very quickly and it began to leave marks way before the weight limit. It also seemed to not wash out as easily as the prefolds, even once I had the laundering 'down' so to speak. I'd look and it would still be 'marked up' (giggle) from a BM. It did hold more 'in' for a BM than a prefold, though because of the snug fit/snaps. To me, not worth the MUCHO extra dinero it cost.

You cannot beat these for the price. They are not as absorbent as many innt he larger sizes but with a doubler or super soaker added we can last quite a while. At night I put the extra super soaker outside the daiper in the cover and it works great. The customer service is fantastic, the times I have contacted them with a question or once with a snap issue, I had a response with in hours and when I sent the repair I had it back in a week with extras included to cover my shipping!

I found these to be absorbant enough for my newborn but they did not fit right away due to the bulkiness between the legs. I didn't use them until he was a month old. They are good at containing BF poo but because the rise is short they don't fit long. They're just ok in my opinion.

We loved these diapers above all others for our newborn. Didn't get too much extended use out of them as they were outgrown by 5 weeks, but they made the constant diaper changes much easier (especially in the dark at night, I still avoid snappi-ing in the dark!) and were a great introduction for us to cloth.
Although I don't see how such a diaper could stand up to DD's output currently without a huge increase in bulk, the size 0's worked fine for the beginning stretch. They were in constant rotation and stood up well to the abuse. I liked the snaps quite a bit, and really liked the snap down feature to avoid the umbilical while it was healing. They were soft and snuggly and never left any red marks on our girl.
Picked these up used and I'd recommend that for others as well since they get used so little (they will definitely last through a few babies at one month of use each, even with daily washing!).

I have the size 0 and even though they are the best fitting diaper of all the different kinds I have tried, I was taken aback over just how bulky they looked on my tiny new born. He looked like he was lying on a downward slope for the first weeks. This is off course not this diapers fault (it is actually fairly trim), but more a culture chock as I did disposables with my first born. Also I am not all that good with snaps and I therefore I tend to avoid these diapers when I am in a hurry or during night time changes.

I really like these fitteds, especially paired with one of the kissaluvs doublers. It's pretty absorbent.. bulky, but I will take absorbent over trim any time. It doesn't sit very nicely on my infant, but over all it does stay put and contain leaks. The reason I gave it a 4 was because it has held stains. It's definitely clean, but stained. I would love these if they had an inner that wouldn't show them. Even the soaker is stained. I still use mine daily and plan on purchasing more for my stash. Fitteds and prefolds are my go-to diapers for the day time. I'm not so sure I'd use this diaper overnight.

I bought a dozen Kissaluv fitteds, size 0, when the site opened their outlet store during the holidays. Shipping was fast and efficient, and the diapers arrived super quickly. They were able to honor my request for mixed colors, even though it was an outlet purchase. I'm excited to use them when my LO arrives in a few months!
