Liquid I.V.

Coterie

I did prefer the taste of Liquid I.V. over competitors as it was slightly saltier, which I liked rather than an overly sweet drink. That said, I was relying on these to get extra hydration during my third trimester and did not realize how much sodium was in one packet/serving. Explains the salty taste! If you have pre-eclampsia, high blood pressure or any other conditions where sodium levels affect your health it might be safer to consume way less than the recommended daily amount or use other water enhancers with less sodium.

We love Coterie and have been using them for or the last four months. Baby is now seven months old and we've never had a diaper rash or redness that didn't go away within the day. We've tried other popular brands along with Honest, Millie Moon and Dyper, but Coterie fit our baby's body shape the best without having too much extra diaper around the bottom. With other brands even when the diapers looked like a large fit poop would still blow out the back or front. We've already sized up twice and apart from a few newborn diapers we haven't had a front/back blowout in months. There have been a few side leaks but that was after baby had been going wild in his activity center.

The tape fastener is really strong and sometimes I get it snagged on the new diaper as I'm pulling the old one away, not really an inconvenience though. They're plain white on the outside so it's easy to see the wetness indicators. The outside is also very soft and doesn't feel plasticky or waxy, just a soft-to-the-touch material. The inner cuff is also frilly and looks really cute. These diapers are absolutely a luxury but I think you get what you pay for with them.
