I want a few more BG Elementals!

I agree the BG elementals are nice but just expensive. I would love to have more because they do take a while to line dry inside our house.
Our daughter also just outgrew her size M Charlie Bananas and I miss them!! I loved the inserts and the pockets. Just really nice material on both.

BG Freetimes, definitely. I like the Elementals a lot too, but I find they take much longer to dry than the Freetimes.

@autumnlove: @Thehistoryofus: Have you tried Freetimes? I'm curious if anyone has tried using both and which you prefer/why. (Aren't they pretty similar except Freetimes dry faster? and I think they're made of different material)

@FutureMrsMcK: Ahh, just what I was wondering! Would you get Freetimes instead of Elementals if you bought them all over again?

@tororojo: I have 5 of the Freetimes and I don't like them as much because they don't fit my LO well in the crotch area...too wide. They do dry a lot faster!

@tororojo: We have 18 Freetimes and 6 Elementals, and if I had to do it over I'd get all 24 Freetimes. Throwing the Elementals in the dryer for a second go isn't that inconvenient, but I'm also not crazy about the way they fit DS. I always end up with a bump of bunched fabric either on the front or back. I imagine it's probably a bit uncomfy for DS. I don't think it will be an issue when we go up a size, though. So my biggest complaint about them is born out of pure laziness, lol.

@autumnlove: @FutureMrsMcK: Thanks! I guess the fit depends on the baby, so maybe not something I can predict!

@tororojo: Yeah, I would try a few before you commit to a whole stash!

I would buy more BG 4.0s. DD is sensitive to the fleece in FreeTimes (but not the 4.0 fleece which is thinner--don't ask me why!!) and she always cries right after she pees in the Elementals. I think she can feel it too much with the organic cotton.
I do prefer to stuff the 4.0s with flat diapers rather than the microfiber insert they come with, which I find much harder to get to feel clean.

BG Elementals. I love them. They do take forever to dry, but I have enough that I don't mind.
