CLOSED - Radical Review Wednesday: Seventh Generation Diapers Review and Giveaway

It has been a milestone week in our household! Friday was E's 3 month checkup. He weighed in at 11 lbs 15 oz and is up to the 27th percentile! Woo hoo! On Sunday he rolled over from front to back, twice! I also have noticed that his size 1 diapers have gotten tighter, and he is leaking out of them a bit more. So a bag of Seventh Generation Free & Clear diapers in size 2 arrived at the perfect time!

The first thing I noticed about them was the lack of color. They look very natural and are not full of cute cartoon characters. I was surprised at how soft they were - not as soft as some other brands but definitely softer than some I have tried. And no gross chemical smell. The diapers fit Baby E. perfectly and did not leak overnight! Really, the only thing i didn't like was the Velcro - I love that it is long, but that means it gets tucked behind the baby's body and is hard to open.

About Seventh Generation diapers: Free & Clear diapers do not include chlorine processing, fragrances, latex and petroleum based lotions. In an effort to contribute less overall landfill waste and continue to ensure a premium standard of absorbency, the new Free & Clear diapers have been redesigned with a lighter-weight core. With processed chlorine-free wood pulp in Free & Clear diapers, Seventh Generation also makes certain that no chlorine is released into the environment during the totally chlorine-free (TCF) whitening process of the diapers and training pants.

Don't forget - the $2 coupon is still available!
