Did you know bumGenius cloth diapers are made by Cotton Babies? Learn about all the brands made by Cotton Babies.

Cotton Babies started out as a baby retailer selling baby slings. Then, our owner, Jenn Labit, went on to make her own cloth diaper inserts. In 2005, she created bumGenius cloth diapers. Since then, we’ve expanded our brands and make lots of (we think) cool products that help make life easier for parents and eliminate waste. Cotton Babies products have a focus on baby, but many can be used by the entire family. Here’s a breakdown of our evergrowing product assortment, the majority of which are made in the USA! bumGenius bumGenius is where it all started. These cloth diapers are

How to use hemp cloth diapers

Why Hemp Are you dealing with a heavy wetter, a toddler, or looking for an overnight solution? Look no more. Hemp cloth diapers can help. Hemp is a natural fiber that has been used for centuries to make textiles. Not only is hemp a durable, strong and versatile fiber, it also features anti-bacterial properties making it resistant to mold, bacteria, heat and mildew. What does that mean for you? It means it’s great for cloth diapering! Hemp Babies™ products are free of herbicides, pesticides and fertilizers. It’s safe enough to go against baby’s delicate skin.

Cloth Diaper Accessories Guide
October 17, 2016 3:11 pm | by

One of the great things about cloth diapering (besides these reasons, of course!) is that it plays so well into the now-trending “minimalist” way of life. Cloth diapering is SIMPLE, affordable, and significantly reduces waste! It is win-win-win for the minimalist-minded mama! There are, however, some accessories that are – for the most part – necessary to cloth diaper. These include reusable cloth wipes, a diaper pail or large wet bag, and diaper-safe detergent. That’s it! That’s all you’ll need (besides cloth diapers, of course) to successfully cloth diaper your child. This is your cloth diaper accessories guide. Our bumGenius Flannel

Prepping Cloth Diapers

Keeping your little one dry through the night is just as simple as keeping your little one dry through the day.  You just need to find a nighttime solution that works for YOU and your baby. Since some babies do not wet through their diapers at night, you may not experience leaks.  Some babies wake up for a midnight feeding and a diaper change, so you will not experience any leaks then either.  If your baby is a heavy wetter or sleeps consistently, then you may need to find an overnight cloth diapering solution. Here are our top ways to

Cloth Diaper Basics: How to use Hemp
December 14, 2014 4:59 pm | by

One of the most frequently asked questions we receive about cloth diapers is, “How do I use hemp?” This is a great question, and, to put it simply, there are many ways you can use hemp with cloth diapers.

Hemp Babies was created for heavy wetters, parents who prefer a more natural solution to cloth diapering, or those who need to boost absorbency at night. It offers a variety of cloth diaper products made exclusively with hemp and certified

Review: Hemp Babies Bigger Weeds
October 23, 2014 7:34 pm | by

Oh, how I wish I would have come across these sooner!  Hemp Babies Bigger Weeds are truly a work-horse of a diaper!  They can be stuffed into a pocket diaper, added to an Elemental or Freetime, or used on its own with a diaper cover.  I absolutely love using BumGenius Elementals during the day, but at night we need a more absorbent method.  Our nighttime diaper solution consists of a Flip Nighttime Organic Insert or Econobum prefold wrapped around a soaker, topped with a homemade fleece liner, all stuffed into a diaper cover.  Needless to say, his little bottom busts out

Cloth Diaper Creams

Cloth diapering your little one from an early age often makes it easy to cloth diaper at night. Many infants don’t sleep through the night early on, so it’s easy to just change your little one’s diaper before a  mid-night feeding. Once they get a little older and start sleeping through the night, it an be a bit of a challenge to cloth diaper at night. If you use bumGenius 4.0 or other pocket style cloth diapers, the first solution is to add extra inserts into the pocket to increase the absorbency of your cloth diaper. A good first step
