I was able to download certain videos from amazon prime video but not all, and it was hard to tell which ones would work. Even between two kids kindle fire 7s they were different. It was so annoying. Make sure you turn off the WiFi and test if they work before you leave (advice given from experience :sad: ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/freetime-unlimited-on-ipad#post-2863984 Sat, 29 Dec 2018 12:59:02 +0000 peaches1038 2863984@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Amazon had a sale yesterday for Freetime unlimited for $1/month. We are going on a trip next week that requires a 6.5 hour plane ride, so I got it. Now I’m not sure how to download things. I tried a long press but nothing happened. Does anyone know how? Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800337 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 06:13:58 +0000 bushelandapeck 1800337@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have all three and prefer the elementals and 4.0s. I have a 2 yr old son who is a serious heavy wetter so I end up having to add inserts to all of his diapers. The freetimes are easy to use...until the poop gets all over them...yuck. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800336 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 06:13:26 +0000 bisous 1800336@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Glitter: Sure! It's really because of poopy diapers. When LO still had breastmilk poop, Freetimes were fine (although still took longer to dry). Now that I am turning diapers upside down over the toilet when she goes #2, I don't want to deal with the flaps on the Freetimes!! Too much to worry about in terms of where the mess goes--haha and with 4.0s, I feel like there is less chance that my hands will actually be coming in contact with the mess. :happy:</p> <p>Eta: JUST saw @skipra's post! Same idea. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800310 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 04:27:54 +0000 skipra 1800310@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Glitter: it is so much easier if the poop is nasty...like when starting to feed something other than breastmilk or if there's diarrhea or something. Those flaps on the freetimes can make cleaning a messy and nasty task! But, I do prefer the Freetimes when ebf. Right now we have ours divided so that W uses only the 4.0s and G uses the Freetimes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800269 Tue, 05 Aug 2014 23:18:32 +0000 Glitter 1800269@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@skipra: why? is it easier to clean poop off pocket diapers? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800223 Tue, 05 Aug 2014 21:41:17 +0000 Ash 1800223@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Glitter: I have a little guy who's 8 months old. They're fine during the day but not enough at night. And yes, it will probably get heavier the more bm/formula he starts taking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800219 Tue, 05 Aug 2014 21:37:25 +0000 Glitter 1800219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: @Ash: do you have a son or daughter? and how old? DS is 3 months and takes foreverrrr to soak his freetimes. I just change them when I feel he's had them on long enough. Should I expect his wetting to get much heavier as he gets older? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800218 Tue, 05 Aug 2014 21:36:07 +0000 skipra 1800218@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never used Elementals but I prefer 4.0 over Freetimes. Especially when they are older or have nasty poop. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800217 Tue, 05 Aug 2014 21:34:28 +0000 Ash 1800217@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>4.0s!

They clean and dry so much faster because the inserts are separate from the pocket. I also like how I can double stuff them overnight. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800115 Tue, 05 Aug 2014 20:12:27 +0000 Glitter 1800115@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@bisous: I don't understand. Can you please explain why/how 4.0s are easier to clean? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800089 Tue, 05 Aug 2014 19:57:27 +0000 bisous 1800089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love the 4.0s and they make up most of our stash. I have a couple free times but find the 4.0s easier at this age (LO is 14<br /> mos) in terms of cleaning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800087 Tue, 05 Aug 2014 19:57:10 +0000 autumnlove 1800087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Elementals!

So easy, and they dry overnight in our house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800083 Tue, 05 Aug 2014 19:53:05 +0000 Mae 1800083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Glitter: They come with 2 inserts but because she's little I only use one (never had a leak) and it is a lot less bulky than the BG Freetimes so I feel like it fits her a lot better right now. Also the inner material seems to wick away the moisture better than whatever the inserts are made of (the inserts are the same material as the BG Freetimes flap-y things) so she rarely cries when wet in them. They do not seem to be made as well as the BGs... but they ARE cheaper and they work better for us for now so I like them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800079 Tue, 05 Aug 2014 19:49:07 +0000 Glitter 1800079@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: Why do you prefer the Alvas? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800075 Tue, 05 Aug 2014 19:47:24 +0000 mrsrain 1800075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have used the elementals as a nanny, and they just take way too long to dry. As a mom I got the free-times and I love them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800067 Tue, 05 Aug 2014 19:40:38 +0000 Mae 1800067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only have free times (of bg) and I like them. I actually like my alva pocket diapers more-- surprisingly considering they were a lot cheaper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800059 Tue, 05 Aug 2014 19:35:31 +0000 Boheme 1800059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>4.0s and Freetimes. I'm not a huge fan of Elementals - they take soooooo long to dry! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-is-your-favourite-bumgenius-cloth-diaper#post-1800058 Tue, 05 Aug 2014 19:33:11 +0000 Glitter 1800058@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only have Freetime in my stash and love them. I need to purchase some more but have been reading good things about 4.0 and Elemental also! Which is your favourite and why? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bumgenius-freetime-deal#post-329903 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 10:36:04 +0000 stargal 329903@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>thanks! ordered 6 more, so excited now i have almost every color exept the girl ones and prints. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bumgenius-freetime-deal#post-329763 Mon, 08 Oct 2012 09:08:20 +0000 ChelseaRose 329763@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The extra 5% certainly helps, but in the past I got freetimes from diapers.com and I believe that they were buy 5 get 1 free as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bumgenius-freetime-deal#post-327528 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 13:20:47 +0000 StrawberryBee 327528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Arden: Thanks! order placed :3 Thanks too for the 5% off code! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bumgenius-freetime-deal#post-327400 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 12:08:19 +0000 Arden 327400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@StrawberryBee: Well, the freetimes are even easier to use than the 4.0 because they are AIO, so they would be a great diaper for DH/grandparents to use.<br /> They are pretty similar diapers. Look the same from the outside too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bumgenius-freetime-deal#post-327396 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 12:05:49 +0000 StrawberryBee 327396@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So I have a stash of 4.0's started. Considering the recent blog about keeping to one type of diaper, do you think it will confuse my DH/myself to have both 4.0's and freetimes in our 'collection'? Really want to take advantage of this deal, but I'm not sure if I should ;). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bumgenius-freetime-deal#post-326979 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 09:26:55 +0000 Mrsbells 326979@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>that is great. we have 24 freetime, so I dont think we need anymore but I really want to use this deal! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bumgenius-freetime-deal#post-326978 Fri, 05 Oct 2012 09:26:27 +0000 Arden 326978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Isn't it? I was so excited to stumble across it. It's super perfect for me because I'm building my stash and had exactly 6 freetimes on my wish list. :D </p>
