TerraSize 6 Diapers: 85% Plant-Based Diapers, Ultra-Soft & Chemical-Free for Sensitive Skin, 35+ Pounds, 14 Coun (Pack of 8)

This is a bit of a read but stick with me because if you’re reading this then you’re likely a parent of achild in diapers or maybe expecting your first. If that’s the case then it will be worth your time.First – I think this is the first review I’ve ever written on Amazon. I read a ton of them (like everyone) buthaven’t felt the inspiration to ever write one until now.My daytime job is in wound care, so helping people with chronic wounds caused by burns, infection,trauma, or many other underlying medical conditions. I think this gives me a bit of a unique perspectivewhen evaluating diapers. My 24-hour a day job is parenting our amazing 11 mo. old. (who onlyhappened after years of IVF…but that’s a story for another day).Probably not surprisingly, when we started researching diapers my number one priority was the healthof our kiddo’s skin. So this made me ask 2 questions:1) How quickly does the diaper remove moisture from the part of the diaper in contactwith the skin?2) How breathable (aka “natural”) are the materials used to make the diapers are.Let’s start with the second point…To say that there is a lot of “greenwashing” (if you haven’t heard this word before, look it up.Very interesting) going on with baby diapers is a huge understatement. When I went down therabbit hole that is researching “eco-friendly diapers” I discovered an entire world wherebasically everyone says theirs is the best and the most eco-friendly and have laboratory testingto prove it and they’re all splitting hares (see what I did there) on the details of each individualmaterial. Then you have tons of eco-friendly blogs that review the diapers, but they seem likethey’re being paid to do it. Bottom line – diaper brands aren’t legally required to disclose whattheir diapers are made of, and everyone says theirs are the most pure so there’s no way to becertain which one really is the most eco-friendly.With than in mind, much of my reasoning why Terra is the best option here is empirical becauseit’s basically impossible to prove so take it with a grain of salt... 1) The company is based in NewZealand. It just seems like culturally New Zealand isn’t as profit-driven as we are. I also reallylike that they’re legit with their claims… 2) They say they’re 85% plant-based when some othersmake claims of 100% this or 0% that. Why would you say you’re 85%, which is clearly less thanothers, unless you were refusing to play the greenwashing game?Back to the first point…This is where they really sold me and the main reason we’re investing (because let’s face it,these are NOT the cheapest option) in our baby’s skin and diapers. I saw a video on Insta fromsomeone I follow, Jamie Grayson, where he did an actual physical side by side test of how muchliquid each eco-friendly diaper holds and how QUICKLY the top layer of each diaper dried out. Icould not believe how quickly the top layer of the Terra dried out vs all the others. It wasliterally dry in seconds whereas the other ones were all still wet when the test was done. I don’tknow why more people aren’t talking about this because it’s SUCH a critical aspect of keepingskin healthy and avoiding diaper rash and bacteria growth that is common when a baby sits intheir wet. This was all I needed to see as a wound care specialist to stop looking, but for moreproof just google “moisture and diaper rash mayo clinic” to see what I mean. On top of that,the amount of liquid that the Terra absorbed was waaay more than the others. They talk aboutthis on their Amazon page but the video was way more impactful and it was crazy to see. Sincewe started using them, we’ve had 2 leaks (but both were because my husband was still workingon his diaper changing skills!) and critically, ZERO cases of diaper rash.Bottom Line -In my opinion, Terra is hands down the winner when it comes to the health of our baby’s skin.Hope this was helpful!

Out of all the diapers I tried these are number 2 on my list, they would be number one if the price was a little cheaper, but overall one of the best diapers, I use these for nighttime only they hold the pee, no leakage. They are thick, absorb really fast. I especially love how clean they are. My baby has sensitive skin and these do no irritate him.

These diapers are really nice quality and totally fine for during the day. We tested their overnight claims on my 4 month old and they did not hold up, he woke up with his clothes totally soaked & the diaper came open.

These diapers are MAGIC. They are too expensive to use as everyday diapers for me, but I love them for nighttime. My 6 week old was waking up every 2-3 hours before putting her in these and now she sleeps 5-6 hours at night. They feel heavy from holding so much liquid, but truly dry to the touch. The only issue I have is the fit for my tall girl. She’s very lanky and so the diapers don’t quite sit in the right spot. They also don’t have elasticity around the waist where the fasteners are, so it’s very difficult to get a tight fit. Whenever I change her after use, the diapers are lower than they should be and real loose. works fine for pee, but when she poo’s it spreads out since it’s not tight enough. I imagine blowouts will happen.

These held up great when it comes to retaining & wicking moisture. They're sturdy. I like that the tabs don't take up much space at the waist so it's not irritating baby as they bend which bothered me about 4 other brands. They are a little stiff and run rather large. My issue is that there seems to be no wetness indicator like I thought there was. This isn't a huge issue as someone that changes their baby constantly but if I didn't, I would be bothered. The price point isn't justifiable to me, either, though I prefer these "ingredients."

I was looking for a new diaper when our original diapers we bought went out of business. When you search for Eco diapers so many show up that are truly not eco-friendly with all their dies and cool designs on them. Decided to take a chance on these even though they were some of the most expensive. I'm so glad we chose these diapers because they are the softest diapers and our little one has such sensitive skin. I encourage anybody and everyone to at least give this type of brand a try and you probably won't go back. And if you are worried with the price tag on it I would at least get a set for your child overnight and during long naps and then you can go to cheaper route during the day when you're changing frequently but these are well worth the price and comfort of your little one.! Will now try their other products because of the eco friendly products and how great the diapers came!

I got so excited seeing this diapers and thinking they might be similar to Parasol in their designs and quality.Umm it was worse. Waste of money. They are bulky and uncomfortable plus they leak. My toddler hated it.I still have more than half left.I’m probably gonna need to give away or discard, pretty sure my son won’t wear them again

My kids have all been big wetters lol these are great she can wear all night and still be dry! brand transparency and clean ingredients are a huge concern for me and this brand passes all the tests for me , the eco consciousness is a big plus as well! They are soft , definitely not the softest on the outside but the inside is equal to pura (another great brand) and Millie moon

I really wanted to like these diapers as they are one of the most accessible "non-toxic" diapers in Canada. They also feel incredibly luxurious and soft. However the first night I put my 4 month old in the size 3 (he is 16lbs) I had to change him in the middle of the night ! The diaper fit properly and the leakage did not happen from the legs. The actual diaper itself had soaked through so much that when I put it on the table it left a wet mark. He sleeps roughly 8-10 hours at night and I have never experienced this with the pampers pure diapers. I'm hoping to have more success with ecopea or ecoriginal diapers (Both of which are difficult to get in Canada). Very disappointed given these diapers are nearly 1.00 per diaper! I gave it a 3/5 star because they hold smaller pees during the day well. Unfortunately a wet breastmilk poop will saturate them too :(

did not hold well, leaky diapers :(
