Sew or Buy? Fleece nighttime diapers? - Cloth Diapers & Parenting Community

I know that I am person #4562321658 to have nighttime concerns. We used to used fitteds (GMs) most of the time, but due to an issue, did a temporary switch to our FBs or anything else at night...and of course, my son wakes up SOAKED.

The other night, I had him in a Modia pocket, and the bed was WET and Eds was SOAKED to his neck. I felt so badly for him.

Our favorite nighttime solution for my son is a GM made with "cuddle fleece". I have been searching HC and can't find any others made with this type of fleece.

Are fitteds like GMs REALLY that hard to make? Does anyone sew their own diapers AND buy, as well?

THank you!

It's possible the mamas who use that kind of fleece call it Minkie or Minkee.

Green Acre Designs also makes diapers that are windpro fleece outers with a microfleece inner. It's not "cuddle" fleece but it's soft and they're on sale and well loved.
